The bike came with green. Pretty sure Honda Coolant is now blue. Everything I've read is that they are compatible and can be mixed. I buy high...
I'm old school and stay green. Just make sure it is a non-silicate formula, which most are. I think Honda Coolant at the car dealerships...
This problem has been discussed many times. But you're hoping it's something easy. It's not. A likely scenario is that the fuel tube o-rings...
Whoa!!! The key code is stamped in the ignition switch (usually in a place that is not easily visible). Do some disassembly and have a key made...
Welcome!! (Finally)
Nice bike. Nice score. Sweet.
Clutch rumble / knocking is normal (99.9% of the time). I'd be more concerned if it didn't have it. There's a lot of gears and parts in there...
2 things: A: You don't need new carbs. Everything is easily defeated. I just did it to my 92 (plus about 6 other VFRs, mine and friends) II:...
OOhhhhh... the cable holder on the carbs?! I get it now. Glad you're starting to get it sorted. What size pilot jets are in it?
After you remove the cables from the carbs, remove the handlebar with the switch and cables. Then you can flip it upside down on the bench and...
If it's starting, idling and coming off idle.... It's not the pilots. That's what they do.
Too many possibilities to say with any certainty, but... If you've never done it, or have knowledge of it being done properly in the last decade...
You can always shorten a chain and have the ability to fine tune where you want your rear axle. Just remember, regardless of how "heavy duty" a...
That's absolutely what I have been doing for years on items that have been in my service. But since I was going thru the motions and the...
Well, brake rebuilding time... oh goodie. Bleh. I had to get out the special tool. [ATTACH] Shadow 1100 master cylinder I keep primed and...
Also, the front of the air box where it meets the plenum doesn't have any screws in the middle of that front edge. I've had one very warped there...
Yeah. When full "choke" makes it better, you are likely getting excess air somewhere. Do a spray test for sure.
Are you trying to run with the air box off? Also, new carb insulators?
Get your slave off and apart. Might need just a seal (usually), but the piston could be toast from moisture in the fluid. "Casting blowouts"...
Time to man up and rebuild your clutch system. You should probably bleed your brakes too.
