The thermostat holds the temps nicely at 77-82C when I'm moving so it works great. I think there might be a drippy injector as the oil level...
No the brakes are great; I've been through these and cleaned the seals and lubed the sliding pins, and with EBC HH pads they are just brilliant,...
Maybe you should send Staintune an email and ask them? sales@staintune.com.au
I might have to look into that; but intuitively I can't see why a blocked filter would affect economy as this is would only reduce fuel flow to...
50000 miles is just run in! I'd be surprised if you have any issues within the crankcases that would need attention. It would appear that the...
I always wear disposable foam plugs on any ride. I used to get ringing ears without them. I work in a noisy industry so hearing protection is the...
The only thing that I would check is the fork spacing side to side in the clamps; I think I've read somewhere that the wheels/discs etc are...
The 767mm that I measured was with the wheel lifted off the ground, but wheel brakes etc installed. I did not include the fork cap in the...
I've been going through the process of suspension upgrades this year. New tyres are always the best place to start and restore a lot of confidence...
I suspect you'll find that there is a bit of threadlock that is stopping the bolt coming out easily, but it won't take much force to overcome...
Yikes! Glad you asked for clarification. I just remeasured with the wheel off the deck, and get an accurate 767mm between the top of the tube and...
Hi Mike Not an easy thing to measure on the bike, but I got around 605mm on mine. Could be off by +/-5mm as I was unable to get a straight line...
Hi Kevin I'm also new to my 99 VFR which I got earlier this year. I have had this happen twice now, both times the reset happened during a...
I completed my front suspension upgrade last week, using parts supplied by Daugherty Motorsport. I was going to hold out for the adjustable fork...
Sad to say I saw no change from using Sea Foam in my bike. Fuel economy stayed at around 33mpg over a number of tanks. I've now fitted a new fuel...
Mranes' post referred to the sound that the solenoid by the airbox makes at idle. This is an on/off noise (I also thought it sounded like...
Ha ha! I also purchased a brand new VF500F way back when! Glad I'm not the only old fart here.
I also have to move my foot up off the peg to downshift; would be great to have a finely adjustable shift lever as it is just a bit high as...
I had the same thing and solved it with a FactoryPro Shift Star kit. This makes for much more positive engagement of the gears, and makes a sloppy...
Not sure that I should join this party, I could be way too straight! I'm running Metzeler Z8s and they're 80% done for after about 5000km. 95% of...
