I'm not so sure the chain will wear more on the "left" side of the valley. As the chain wears it will naturally not contact the bottom of the...
Contrary to what you've read, loud pipes do not save lives. They just piss people off. A little rumble is good, but don't be like the Harley guys...
I have paint on my tank that the tank bag sits on, never been a problem. Keep the tank clean, don't get sand under it, and don't drag it on and...
To me it makes sense if the braking of the VFR was not excellent, but it comes across as one of the best stopping bikes there is. Why mess with a...
Can you drop the pan without pulling the engine? That would make a bad job a little better.
Not super cheap, a new sending unit is at least $30, and would be closer to $50 at the dealer I'm guessing. Plus all your doing then is acting...
There is some truth to the "let the rings break in" mantra, or there was about 20 years ago. The rings needed to mate to the cross hatch pattern...
You've got an air bubble somewhere, most likely right at the master cylinder rod. I've used a very small piece of wire to wiggle in the return...
Tomato, tomahto.
Ugh, thanks but no thanks. Maybe the Harley crowd will love all that chrome, but for me it's way, way too much. Why do all that carbon fiber and...
You might be able to borrow one from O'Reilly's. I usually have a couple of generic pressure gauges around and I just grab whatever one is handy....
Actually that sign would be in Kansas City, Missouri. In Kansas they don't tell you ahead of time. :)
Okay, so now you absolutely have to check the oil pressure. And from the sounds of things you need to check it when the engine is cold, and when...
Sorry to hear about your dilemma. My wife's father and brother both had issues with dizzy spells as they got older and had to quit riding. I've...
Honestly, I never had much luck with the MityVac. I always got air leaking past the threads of the bleeders. If you could keep the threads sealed...
I love the steel lines, but one should definitely take his time and make sure he thoroughly understands all the steps before he starts. And IMO...
Nice bike, but that price sure seems outrageous to me. I bought my '99 in 2000 for not much more than that. $5500 for an 18 year old bike,...
I don't know that all filters have a pressure relief bypass, but most of them do. Some off brands may not. I'm sure that OEM filters will have the...
Yeah, the pressure definitely needs checked, but how many people have the proper gauge to measure their oil pressure as opposed to those who have...
The first thing I'd do, since the bike is new to you, is immediately change the oil and filter. Who know what the PO used for oil and if he...
