Seeing as we are making confessions, I also own and ride a Vespa Sprint 150 which I bought new last year. In the right time and place, lots more...
I have a completely unproven theory that an over-tightened chain is the cause of tight spots. As the suspension travels through a full arc it...
Oz is quite correct. You can use VTR1000 lowers (and uppers and internals if you wish) with 954 calipers with the standard 5G wheel/axle/discs....
I've been running T30 Evos on my VTR1000, they took a little running in but are now excellent reliable tyres with good feel and reasonably quick...
Colin if you take a trip to the Racetech site you can look for springs for the VFR and you get to input your weight, and they will tell you a...
Sorry John, for some reason I thought you had an 800, not the 91 750. You are correct, the 750 uses a different part number 90155-MT4-000 and it...
The original bolt 90155-MBG-000 is used on all the VFR800 models up to the current one, so it should be easy to get from a dealer.
I think you just demonstrated my ignorance level of the 06 model. The service manual I had was for 03.
Pardon my ignorance but is the blinker relay involved in the running lights? I thought that was completely done within the turn signal switch on...
You can test the function of the thermostat by the way the radiator heats from cold. If the tstat functions correctly it keeps coolant circulating...
It isn’t easy to test the cap, but it won’t be expensive to replace. Easiest would be a genuine cap but you should be able to find a suitable...
Replace the cap as a first measure; gurgling and hissing from the overflow would be sign that the cap is not holding the requisite pressure and...
I recall reading that if you don't have the standard washer/brake-hose guide installed , then the bolt can bottom out in the threaded hole in the...
I'd suggest you have a look at the RR connector to the stator, the 3-pin plug gets wet/corroded then overheats and melts, causing other damage. I...
13.1V at 12500rpm seems a bit low. Is it higher at lower revs? If not there might be MORE maintenance needed soon... I hate to be "that guy" but...
I fitted a tyre pressure monitoring system on my VTR, and that has been interesting to look at as conditions change. On a cool dry day last...
And on the other hand...when the bar end on my Suzuki RF900R fell off, I did not realise it until I got home 3 hours later and saw it missing, so...
I had a similar lowside on my VFR two years ago. I'd go OEM for the bar end and brake lever unless you feel like an upgrade to adjustable levers....
Maybe a damaged wire/connector leading to the MAP sensor? Might pay to check for continuity down the wires from the ECU connector.
You can also experiment a little to see the effect on feel. Bear in mind that the MotoGP bikes run pressures in the low 20's (I believe), but that...
