I know, I've ridden a few. I thought they felt like a large 1998 VFR as far as ergos and handling. A little more deliberate in handling of...
Goddammit... that is the XX I want. Fucking love that color on that bike. Trying to convince my buddy who is fairly tall and big he needs one...
It is tilted back a bit to me too. Plus I see you don't have the side brackets installed that attach to the rear of the three holes that mate the...
Don't forget you have adjustment on one of the cables near the throttle housing. 8mm adjuster and 10mm lock nut. I always give it as much slack...
Yes. They don't usually "rot out", but there is another member that did some needed patch work on his. The section gets expanded from freezing...
Squirrel, this is a VF, not a VFR. Cables are in the center of the carbs, not on the side.
For the 3rd time... NOT COOLANT!!!! it is the crankcase breather catch tank. Every now and then you drain the goo that is in there. Jeesh.
I already answered your question. It is the Crankcase Breather Tank. A hose attaches to that nipple and is plugged for occasional draining....
If I happened to get an X in the states for "Closed Course Competition Only", I'd rock a VFR800F plate on there no problem.
Wait... you are talking about the (now) orange colored tank to the rear? That is the crankcase breather catch tank. It has a hose with a plug...
I am going from memory here, but are you sure it's an actual nipple and not just a locating post that engages a hole to keep the bottom in place...
They didn't. Also aftermarket Targa lowers.
That rear tire has to be as supple as a chunk of oak.
So... this is the picture you chose when talking about carbs? ;-)
If your clamps and screws still have the little collars installed, ditch them. Over time the clamps no longer have the ability to tighten...
Got it. Thank you for the clarification. I think I knew that at some point and forgot. Regardless, here's where mine end up. [ATTACH]
I have a chunk of tube with an old Honda Shadow master cylinder mounted to it with a short brake line that I cap and keep bled. For the calipers...
There are quite a few people that have done it and there are some write-ups in some threads somewhere. A common method for the front is to source...
It doesn't compromise the frame (also mentioned in the Service Bulletin), just looks irregular. I'll post up a scan so you can save it for the...
I didn't think the F2 was affected by the lack of drain holes in the right frame lower per a Technical Bulletin. I see yours has swollen from...
