Sounds like we need to start another thread on how to repair furnaces! Actually I'm sure there will be more than enough expertise here to solve...
I'm sure there's also "partial" failures which are annoying but don't represent a complete fault. I'm thinking about air leaks in the vacuum hoses...
If your mini-Mancave starts to smell like catsh1t, I know who to blame... [ATTACH]
If any of the sensors are giving dodgy inputs that will normally trigger a FI fault and illuminate the light. The MAP sensor certainly know...
Have you tried the simplest fix of finding the connectors involved and pulling them apart and cleaning any corrosion out?
I just went and re-started and warmed up the bike, the idle was low again (1000rpm) but had been 1200rpm when I tweaked it at the end of...
Thanks Graham; I was coming to a similar conclusion. The idle speed seems to have varied a bit, I had to back the adjuster out initially as it was...
So I changed out the stuck thermostat in my 5th gen and that part of the surgery appears to have been fine. When I fired the bike up on the fast...
The VFR got the afternoon off. The forecasted rain held off so the Sad Robot Bike got taken out for 200km cobweb blow-out. Criminy, I had...
Or none of the subfuses has been replaced with a suitable chunk of conducting metal...
That muffler hanger looks like a genuine HRC piece...
Thanks for sharing this Mike. I'll add that to my mental list of things to avoid doing.
I'll second the straightening suggestion; I bought some slightly bent CR6600F4 forks and had them professionally straightened, and you'd never...
All NZ bikes are fitted with Ventura packs, it is a legal requirement. I did have a rear seat bag but wanted to use the seat cover cowl (more...
Did a little bit of an experiment tonight, and dropped the triple clamps down the forks by 10mm. I had found the bike a little reluctant to turn,...
I owned the NC24 back in the day; great little runner, but not sure my older bones would enjoy it quite so much now. The 400 V4s are a great...
Bike Spirits? A few of these and then the old girl looks great from any angle including lying on the floor... [ATTACH]
Both of my 5th gens have needed a new thermostat. I'm yet to change the thermostat on my current bike (presumably it is on a slow boat from Japan)...

I believe if I leave the CF dash cover on, and add an HRC sticker, I can magically unleash 120 hp! And if I add the flapper "mod" and snorkel...
