You can disable vacuum operation, which I recommend. Original did not run a filter, just the strainer attached to the petcock up in tank. You...
I agree. Those needle bearings have a very limited range of motion and simply don't "wear out". Clean and re-grease, unless it is seized or...
Too many nooks and crannies. By hand.
[ATTACH] Rear wheel cleaned, polished and waxed. Ready to install.
Yeah, it sure seems like it. Normally when I have the fronts in on earlier years, the rears look so far off you wonder how it is possible. But...
Oh yeah... I've learned when you just miss one, the ONE comes up next.
Welcome "back". Which version you thinking this time? De-linked 98 - 99. Gear drive goodness, no bullshit. But any VFR is awesome, we all know it.
Goddamn... 4th gen carbs literally fall in. Fronts in, went to push down the rears and just thinking about it, they went "pop". [ATTACH] Now...
Time to install the new YSS. Set it to 330mm (+5mm over stock). [ATTACH] Installed the block off plates before the shock [ATTACH]

Yep. Just make sure the area that has been exposed isn't corroded or damaged that it will foul the seals when installing. Ran either way is just...

It's science. Everybody knows it. Same with your car. They shift crisper and accelerate harder.
Same for me. Would go the the dealer in high school and just stare and dream. Then get back on my VF500F. It's why I now own 3 1000R plus a...
Yeah, SM is right. They are pretty damn resilient. Usually just trimming back a couple mms of lead (if a little discolored) and a new cap.
Hah! Thanks dude. I was actually hoping nobody commented on the couple stains I decided not to worry about. But yeah, pretty sano.
With just a 1000R swingarm, the rest can be made to look plenty racy. At least period correct racy. Prob with a 1000R rebuild (I've done 2),...

Yeah, F2 wheels. I don't know if "beat to shit" is really accurate, but I def would be negotiating on that price.
