Won't there be a tea-bag strainer on the pump inlet? I thought all FI bikes had that.
Yeah, there's no shortage of VFR's for sale here, and it looks like the 6th gen prices are dropping quite fast. I was looking around in 2014 and...
Are you getting deported, James?
Me too. I enjoy participating in the online forums and trying to diagnose other's motorcycle-related problems, as it forces me to think laterally...
I don't have a CA bike, but I know if I disconnect one of the vacuum hoses I get a change in idle speed and a change in noise. I think you are...

Well firstly there are no differences in jets/emulsion tubes or needles in the carbs. Tink I'm sure you'd find your way around the carbs no...
Thanks guys. I have kept individual carb parts separate so I know I haven't switched any parts. Doesn't mean someone else may not have done so...
Yes the 5th gen uses the same morse code approach to fault codes. There are long blinks (1.3 sec) and short blinks (0.5 blinks). Just remember...
I think Knight is referring to checking that the cams are correctly set relative to the crank. You need to pull the cam covers off and check the...
