Thanks for the suggestion Shields. I think that could potentially work, but something with a 1/4" socket receiver on the end would allow more...
Are you hearing any popping like it wants to fire, or nothing at all? Is this off an auxiliary tank or off the fuel tank? If auxiliary tank, make...
Cheaper than a skin graft? ~$70 for the Motion Pro... That seems like quite a bit for a tool that I've never had any use for prior. I'm gonna...
Are there any tricks or essential tools to accessing the synchronization screws buried on the underside of the carburetor? I purchased this...
Auxiliary tank works just fine to get it going. You and I are at the same spot, but it does bring up a question I never thought to ask... Should...
I was given some really good advice on this recently here by Captain 80s and a few others. I'd been having fits trying to seat my VF500F carbs...
Will do. The order of sync is in the manual, so I'll just follow that exactly. Will grab some 40 pilots if it requires more than 2.75 turns out...
Alright, that's what I was thinking. My understanding per the manual is that you are not balancing them in pairs like an inline-4; but rather,...
Found some interesting behavior after playing with the bike for much of Sunday. The warm bike would idle all the way up to 3,700RPM with the idle...
They sure do. I'm sure the sync is all off, and I'm probably too lean on the A/F screws. *Edit--lmao, just realized why it might be running...
I got it fired! It certainly isn't right yet--got a hanging throttle which will certainly take a lot of putzing around with to eliminate... but at...
I really like that idea to slit the exhaust and add a clamp. I was playing around with it again last night, and even once I fasten the exhaust to...
Decided to run over to my buddy's house that recently bought a project VF500F. I wanted to get a comparison shot of what a stock exhaust looks...
Just realized I've been following the thread you recently started here. Doubt I'm telling you anything you didn't already know. Looking forward to...
Best of luck! Know that you're not alone in the dread and excitement. Im planning to try to fire mine up this weekend. I'm super uneasy that I...
It does look like it should go further up. It looks like I can actually drop the exhaust without needing to access the collars on #2 and #4...
I'm seeing something else. The #4 pipe isn't seated properly which should give me my height and a little bit back... This has to be it. I'll see...
They're different. The right one seems like it needs to be about 3/4" backwards and maybe 1/2" higher. I am almost positive it can't be an...
Damn, you're absolutely right. I didn't like how that looked, so I was going to put washers over each side at least, so it wasn't squishing weird....
Thank you for the insight Captain. In regards filling the coolant, is there a danger in hurting the water pump if I'm potentially missing...
