I put VTR1000F forks on my 5th gen; the only tricky part is making up some brackets so the 5th gen mudguard fits. This enables you to use some of...
I haven't had this happen (and it won't happen now because I de-linked my brakes!) but I recall reading that the SMC gets crud in it and can't...
Hi Norm, do you have a link to the discs you bought?
Just to expand on this, you should always have a little slack at the throttle throughout the full range of motion of the bars. You may need to...
SOW never gets lost because everyone tells him where to go! (Nice cat skydiving clip, V4!)

Chain slack is measured at the mid length of your chain, i.e. halfway between the sprockets. The slack is the total up and down movement. My...
I fitted my EBC HH pads to the CBR600F4i front brakes, and also cleaned up the discs (again) with a scotchbrite pad and brake cleaner. Initially I...

Sorry about teaching you to suck eggs then! If you need more resistance when bleeding the clutch slave, you could pull the slave off the engine...

I'm not going to try and guess the cause of this one, but I will answer Otter's question about how to bleed a clutch (or other hydraulic system)....
Norm are you getting confused with ABS? I believe that will become mandatory in the EU sometime soon. As someone who crashed a few times from a...
I can confirm the F4i rear master works really well with the rear calipers via both standard hoses. I had a spirited 160 km ride today and fell in...
If you know all this already, move on. I probably should add for clarity that if you delink the brakes, the back master cylinder is no longer a...
Yes apart from the calipers, lower forks and the fender brackets, everything else (wheel/axle/discs/upper fork leg) can stay VFR. I have got VTR...
The fender mount on the VTR lower sits further from the outside of the leg by about 23mm, and the mounting holes are also closer together at 90mm...
I'm with you on this one. I'm still doing the fruggle search here and there, it will happen sooner than later. At the moment I've found a complete...
I sent them a chunk of my old fairing to do a colour match on, and I think they did a great job. Under certain light there is a slight suggestion...
