The thermoswitch is between the motor and earth; there is a positive 12V feed to the motor at all times, so it just needs the earth path to...
Absolutely; the cooling system should heat up to the fan cycling temperature (usually around 102C) then the fan starts, temperature should creep...
First question is where is it coming from? If it is from the reservoir, you may have either overfilled it (unlikely) or the radiator cap needs to...
It is pretty easy to accidentally adjust the reference SV; I was semi-informed and still managed to do it, as the shaft of the SV was seized so...
From the wire colours and position, that is the connection between the battery and the regulator/rectifier. There will also be a 3-yellow wire...
Getting the settings right is a bit of an art; I had to "unseize" the reference starter valve and inadvertantly changed the adjustment. Finding...
The vacuum lines are only different because the 5G has the 4 starter valves mounted to the right side of the TBs, whereas the 6G has the SV...
Sorry - I could never ride that bike while the Honda sticker on the left leg is upside down! And the radar detector wiring is very poor with a...
I put a YSS shock (from Firefox) into my ST1300; that has transformed that into a very tidy handler; I also have the full GoldValve and spring...
I've got one of each, a 99 (with Nitron shock and Racetech fork goodness, Sargent seat and raised bars) and a recently acquired 09 (which is stock...
I can confirm that VTR1000F lowers will work nicely with the stock VFR wheel/axle/spacers/discs in the VFR yokes. If you have F3 yokes I suspect...
Well now that is a bit ugly. The only good thing is that the joint is just for the seat subframe so not critical to keeping the wheels in line,...
Dang, that looks ugly. Complete uninformed speculation on my part, but perhaps your engine was hydro-locked from fuel leaking through a carb and...
Nothing to do with performance, all about longevity. The valve heads recede slightly during use which makes the valve stem sit closer to the...
IIRC Shinko is the new(er) name for the old Japanese Yokohama brand. In the 80's (and maybe 90's) Yokohamas were at the sportier end of the tyre...
As long as I get to huff some carb cleaner I will be fairly quiet.
There's always a generator...got to keep the beer cold.
This is why I get lost when I go to the northern hemisphere...
The only item that would warrant closer examination is the left side fairing which has some road rash and also does not appear to align well with...
I've owned two 99s but never a later 5th gen. I do own a 6th gen as well. My opinion is the auto fast idle is of no real value and just another...
Separate names with a comma.
