I think that is the first time I've seen a roll strapped to the wind screen of a VFR. Welcome (back)!!!!
Thank you!!!
Shouldn't be that tight. You need a 8mm wrench (adjuster) and 10mm wrench (lock nut).
The top cable in that pic has the slack adjustment. Loosen the lock nut, and turn the adjuster as far in as possible. That will give you enough...
The US did not get ANY 1988 or 1989 VFRs. No such thing, 700 or 750. 1986 had a 750 and 700. 1987 was just a 700, and has quite a few changes...
Very good progress! I'm really glad you decided to retain the VFRs original character. Nice job so far. Thanks for the update.
So, it's my Birthday Saturday (26th). Some friends took us out for dinner last night as my wife is also out of school this week. My wife and I...
The Gen 3 doesn't use separate pieces. You would then need to create a center collar with needle bearings. Which is doable of course. A piece...
Why do you say that? I'm staring at a 1990 on my lift right now. Here's a 1987 piece [ATTACH] And here's a 93 [ATTACH] And yes.... 86 and 87...
The 86/87 piece is not separate like that. But I get your reference now. [ATTACH]
In my opinion, neither one looks a lot like a "dog bone" One of them is the same (dimensionally) 86 to 87, the other one isn't. Good luck on...
Title says 86 / 87, post says 86. Which part are you looking for? The knuckle with 3 pivots or the U-shaped piece?
"Fully extended" should be simply removed from the bike. The stock shock does not have separate ride height adjustment and preload doesn't...
I just upload them right into my post using the "Upload a File" button to the lower right. Place your cursor in your post where you want the...
Ieanatch is amazing and a great teacher. I've had the opportunity to be on track in a school (Freddie Spender's) 3 times with him, including one...
As suspected, the forks did have aftermarket springs. Straight rate too. They now have stock springs. [ATTACH] Need to polish a bit on the tubes...
The YSS chart can't be trusted, but it is a great resource to get started. Your bike should be 285mm (1986 is 265 stock, 1987 275 stock). On our...
Congrats! Have a great Summer!
Looking good. My friend asked me the other night, how do I stay motivated? Told him that a good work space is probably number one. If you have...
and this hit me. [ATTACH] Took a couple steps towards the office and stopped... turned around... Goddamn... that's fuckin' cool. My buddy...
