If there are any cracks, you are done.
Google Pure Wintergreen Oil and alcohol. Might get them on one last time.
I would do exactly that. Suspension upgrades and make the VFR the way it should have came in the first place (imo, apologies to those who like...
Classic symptoms of bad pulsar coils, failing when warm. Behind the right crankcase cover, mounted around the the starter clutch housing that...
OK! That's actually doing pretty good. Seems to settle back down pretty nice. Awesome!! Shoot for about 1100 after it's warmed up. Cool.

Do you need new plugs perhaps? and do you have spark or not?
Unbolt and remove the halves and see what you got to work with. Either someone was trying to compensate for severely deteriorated parts, or they...
That wrap is not there as stock. The end of of the muffler is dished to match the shape of the gasket, and the 2 piece clamp when tightened (with...
Possible. 500 units are pretty damn resilient tho and bad ones usually aren't intermittent like you describe. Starting no problem to not at all?...
