The word from those in the know (my best mate works for local m/c tyre importers), is that Pirelli Angel GT's are actually a Metzeler Z8 with...
Mate, I don't know everything! It was just a semi-informed opinion. It seemed to me that all the gears would be balanced more or less by design as...
I looked in the service manual, section 1 has all the cable run diagrams. The ground should bolt to the outside of the right frame member just...
Man I feel your pain. At least you got the bike running for a bit so there is light at the end of the tunnel! This sounds more like a spark...
I fitted a voltmeter to my 1999 5G, and installed a relay to power it. The positive feed goes from the battery post to an inline fuse, then...
With a 180 degree crank and the half-speed mechanism of cams, it would seem likely that the cam lobes would be 90 degrees out from each other so...
Glad to hear you made it home with a running bike, Jim. In my experience, you describe a typical modern battery failure: works fine when cold...
The oil light should only be on when the oil pressure is low and the circuit to ground through the switch is completed. So for the light to be on...
Leaning to one side could just be the position of the front wheel axle in the left clamp. The right clamp position is fixed by the big axle nut...
Just to add my two cents, I now have a CBR600F4i fork/brakes/guard in 6G VFR triples, and I'm still using the 5G wheel, discs, axle and spacers....
That is interesting Lint. I just put T30 Evos on my VTR1000 and have noticed an occasional bit of drift from the back end on turn exits...
Congratulations. The new F800GS is in the post, just hope your mail slot is big enough and USPS don't crush it too badly. I can only pass on the...
The only sensor that might be affected is the inlet air temp as it sits in the floor of the air box right below the filter. Easy enough to access...
I noticed the bit of bare wire shown on your picture looks pretty corroded, so maybe the corrosion is between the wire and the terminal i.e. at...
Looks like a good save if that was still working. I wonder how many stator or RR failures have actually been caused by this connector failing?...
Here's a link to my dropbox copy. https://www.dropbox.com/s/syf7mrjghcbchvb/VFR800-VTEC-2002.pdf?dl=0
I'm not sure that the alignment has to be dead-on, as the hydraulics will be self-centering to an extent. Just seemed like a good idea to get it...
Looking very good there. I would have bought some of MD's adapters when I de-linked but he wasn't planning on making more at the time, so I made...
I fitted an Angel GT to the front of my ST1100 and have just ordered a replacement. Very happy with the feel and traction. I'm told that the Angel...
Does anyone know for sure whether a low-mount muffler intended for a 6th gen will definitely fit a 5th gen? There's a Yoshimura slip-on for sale...
