Is this what happens when you go cold turkey without a Timmies stop?
I bought a used ST1100, and after my VTR1000 and VFR800 it feels heavy and unresponsive! Still nice to ride however, and actually not slow or...
Happy to have helped. It was the first thing I repaired on my own VFR800 two years ago.
From the symptoms maybe the tank vent is not breathing easily so the bike is starving for fuel when it's drinking lots accelerating, or maybe the...
I'd be checking over the chain and sprockets carefully first. Maybe you have a bolt coming loose or need to replace the chain and sprockets, or...
You do need to leave a few very dark corners so small parts can fly off and hide as required.
There's no speedo sensor on the front. The speedo sensor is located on the sprocket cover, held in place by a couple of 8mm bolts from memory....

So really what happened is you pulled the oil filter stunt, just to get your bike cleaned???
Anne-Marie I'm glad you survived that close call. Hitting the kill switch and coasting in was really smart riding, and I'm sure the engine will be...
Nice family portrait. I've owned all of those V4's at one time or another, my 400 was that exact colour and was an amazing bike for it's time.
As much as I am enjoying following Anne-Marie's trip, I think I'm enjoying reading about the VFRW field service team's exploits even more. Way to...
"After enough time" being the operative term. Our local road builders LOVE chip seal (must be cheap), but they don't seem to love getting rid of...
Fair enough Norm, you keep 'em. Can we send the possums back too?
I might be wrong about this (and New Zealand has no real snakes at all) but tar snakes just deform when you ride over them don't they? Like jelly...
I'm sure that is how my wife described me to her friends after we first met.
Part of my reasoning (can I use that word to discuss a motorcycle purchase???) for the ST1100 was to try out a more relaxed ride position and...
That is good news if the smoking is getting less with more use. Maybe someone put oil in the mufflers to stop corrosion? In my experience, heavy...
It has taken me a while to get over my aged-motorcycle phobia. As a young-un, I habitually traded/upgraded every 6-12 months, by 25000km I'd be...
I have a custom made block of wood! [IMG]
