Let's keep in mind that these bikes tend to HOLD their value as well. I got my 4G '96 with 15k for $3,800. What other 1996 bike can you think...
I don't think your VIN# will answer that. Look for a charcoal canister somewhere in the bowels of the bike.
There have been running issues related to installing a jet kit with just a slip-on. Anything from terrible fuel mileage, low power, to no-starts....
I used a 11.5k redline, and 16/43 is stock gearing for a 4G ('94-'97) bike. BTW - Your spreadsheet will not open, either in WinZip or Excel....
Did an indicated 145 on the 4G the other day. Fastest I've ever been moving on land. Didn't check where the tach was at, too busy with other...
Sounds like the front forks need to be serviced. Probably have REALLY old fork oil in them, and it couldn't hurt to replace those fork seals, too....
^^^ What he said.:rolleyes:
Wow - all sorts of stuff keeps coming up! My bike always needs the choke to start, no matter the temperature. After about 15-30 seconds, she's...
Answer has been provided by OP: "carbs were jetted to match the 2 Brothers pipe". That, plus the ultra-short commute will not ever allow...
As info, most 3-4G bikes don't seem to get very far above the first hash line on the temp gauge unless subjected to stop and go traffic or...
Um - the 4G VFR has no speedo cable. There is an electrical pick-up sensor on the front sprocket housing. What year are you working on? A 90-93...
I imagine that the 6G is similar to the 4G that I just changed the brake pads on... Yeah, I was surprised by the simplicity of the change as...
I used the Kreem sealer in a Yamaha tank once, and was only somewhat satisfied with the results. It was VERY difficult to spread evenly inside...
I hate to be the one to say it, but that bike is NOT an RC30. The RC30 has a single sided swingarm, and is much more "rounded" than that bike....
Kind of like this??? [IMG]
^^^^^ What he said above, with a little help: 10th digit of VIN - L = 1990 M = 1991 N = 1992 P = 1993 You certainly have a 3G VFR...
First, check the bulb with a 9V battery across the terminals. The filament will glow if it is still good. Just "looking" at the bulb will not tell...
Looks like the pipe off of a 2006 GSX-R 1000.
You might just want to have a replacement on hand when you go to "check" it - mine disintegrated upon removal. Currently replaced on my bike...
Is that seriously how big the rear "fender" is on the '93? That thing is rediculous!!!
