The nick is really small, I'm probably overreacting, but maybe I'll get a"professional " opinion. I'll see if a can catch a fingernail on it. I'll...
Ok, I tried the thinnest feeler gauge I had and I think all it did was F up the seal, it was .008" thick or .203mm thick. I also noticed a very...
I did slide the dust seal up. I can get it under the dust seal, but so far not into the oil seal. I'll try the thin feeler gauge.
I'm estimating it would be $873 if I were to buy fairings from Airtech, plus prep and paint. That's approaching the cost of factory stuff, that's...
Let me know how the Airtech stuff fits. When I had a Triumph Sprint RS, I sent my fairings down to them to use as molds fit that model. Are they...
Thank you.
Yeah, I wish I knew about that first. Do I have to remove the black guards on the forks? I'll probably order one.
I failed at using a Seal Mate to clean my fork seals. Damned thing just crumpled up and wouldn't slide between the fork and the seal. Yay me!
Ah, gotcha, that does make a difference.
With all of the limited space on the front of the VFR, I might as well remove the forks and fix it correctly. Or try the seal doctor. Frustrating,...
Storx, I really like that color/finish.
www.dipyourcar.com has a product that you can wipe on your tire to help the dip come off easily. It's probably a light oil, but I don't know.
I can't get it to work. I bought one on Amazon and after lifting the dust seal, I cannot get it to slide between the fork and the seal. I watched...
So, I replaced the above parts. Now, when my bike sits a while, I have to rock it back and forth a bit to get the rear wheel to move while in...
Haha, I bet it is. My 5th gen with a Delkevic header and a Two Brother's Racing pipe is loud.
That's gotta be loud AF! :eek-new:
It that a straight pipe sticking out of the back of your bike?
In my musings of what else I want to do to my 99'er, since I need to replace the footpeg mounts, are there any aftermarket rear sets for the 5th?
Question for you. Are you using the original fairing stays or did you replace them? I am wondering of having all new stays would help with the...
I thought so too. That seat tho! Touring comfort right there!
