Almost always the bikes i've seen are set at #3. It does work, i believe, but not so well. Works best if you have fresh, clean fork oil.
Connect black and blue/black wires at the relay plug, tape it up, and ride. After the bike sits for a day, you should hear the pump clicking as...

The knocking noise you describe usually proceeds a nasty engine disintegration.......unless it's another, different noise.
I thjink i have a semi-brilliant idea that will work: remove tank and turn it upside down, letting it sit for a few minutes. The reason cap...
Not a collectable bike imo cuz it's seriously flawed and produced in large quantities. The only collectable VFs have less than 1000 street miles...
Peoples don't realize those cap locking mechanisms need periodic maintenance to prevent dissimilar-metal corrosion from freezing it up. Once you...
Seems like you may need another, better carb cleaning to fix the surging.
Bring your own battery and a socket to fit the crankshaft nut (accessible through a small easy-to-remove cover) looking at any used bike,...
All brands are OK if they meet the specifications listed in your owner's manual. Motorcycle-specific (not car oil) is best to use.
Get it up on centerstand and check condition of drive chain.
Each screw can slightly affect the others, so once things get too far off, you might need to remove carbs and try another bench synch. After...
Yes, Norm, you can use it.
Good luck ! Check valve clearances before alot of riding. Also inspect fuel tank interior for signs of rust, and change out old coolant. Don't...
If tip is stuck inside, you could try blasting compressed air (at least 80 psi) into the tube that the idle jet sits in after removing the jet....
If you're willing to experiment a bit, i'd suggest opening out the idle mix screws about 1/4-1/2 turn to see if a slightly richer pilot circuit...
[ATTACH] First thing to check is your plugs for signs of too much or not enuff fuel (or spark). You need a nice light tan color on the center...
Filling from the bottom usually works when other methods have failed, but keep the top offf the master and a rag covering it. Also, be very,...
No squeal when cable isn't connected to spedo ?? Lube the cable but keep lube away from the top 1"
Check carb synch. A worn-to-shit chain with a series of tight then loose spots can cause a surge too.
