Sounds like you need to buy a Honda ST1300...they have a 29L fuel tank (7.7 Trumpgal).
Yes those bolts are supplied with a threadlock coating on the threads. I would apply some Loctite blue and just reuse them (actually, I did just...
If at first you don't succeed, don't take up parachuting.
Just tighten it till it strips and then back off 1/4 turn.
Just like the Ship of Theseus...
Maybe I have misundersood your question, but the float bowl gasket surface is on quite an angle when the carbs are installed, such that the lowest...
Sorry but I can't agree with either of the last two posts. The wax unit is part of the internal circulation system i.e. from the engine block to...
There is a physical hose connection from the rear MC to the front left upper pistons, with the usual delay valve and proportion control valve in...
On my VFR1200 they have at least abandoned the SMC (which seems to be the main source of linked brake woe) so no front to rear connection this...
And yet...on my ST1300, 6th gen and second 5th gen, I have kept the brakes 100% stock. I actually like the engineering behind the CBS system, and...
It all depends what you want to do. If you just want gold callipers, paint the ones you have! If the linked brakes are the problem, there are...
Ah, the famous delink! Many here have done it. All you really need is some fork leg lowers off a VTR1000F, and swap these for the VFR800 bits....
All that holds the clutch cover on the crankcase is the bolts and two dowels, then the gasket. I have always had success by tapping on the case...
Clearances will decrease as the valve recedes into the head and make less of a tick; not like say a pushrod engine where clearances increase and...
Its really hard to diagnose odd noises but that does not sound like a camchain tensioner, more like an exhaust leak or similar. Check the exhaust...
Get yourself a cheap vacuum bleeder, and add some thread tape to the nipple threads, and you should be able to rebleed the clutch easily enough....
This should work for you; there were some detail differences between the 86 and 87 around suspension, and your 700 has a shorter stroke...
(I don't really miss carbs).
That is still my favourite generation of VFR; it must have been released when I was at an impressionable age! They hardly ever come up for sale...
The runout seems a bit high, the service manual limit is 0.3mm. Can you check the runout of the disc mounting surfaces? A slightly random...
Separate names with a comma.
