The only other place where coolant and oil come close is at the water pump. A failed pump seal could be allowing coolant to enter the crankcase.
It's been a few decades since I had one of those! The blue ring is the rebound adjuster, screwed in fully clockwise is the maximum damping. The...
Another fine acquisition Mr Stray. That looks to be a lovely condition. My best mate has been a Kawasaki man forever (has the Z-H2 now) and had...
Thanks Mike. I've had some communication with my local YSS supplier and there is a small saving from the UK ($30) but I feel I should try and...
Nice. I'm thinking about a YSS shock for my ST1300. Who did you order this one from?
The pick-up at low revs has a fair bit to do with the V4 nature, but can be improved a bit with a decent throttle body synchronisation. If you...
Just so you know, you can find the service manual downloads on the other VFR site....

My 86 750 that I bought and sold recently sounded a bit rattly at low revs but smoothed out nicely under load and was super smooth when riding. So...
I had the fortune/misfortune of being aboard somebody else's CBX750F when it decided to eat a main bearing. IIRC (hey it was nearly 40 years ago!)...
I did a water pump rebuild on my ST1100 and it was easy enough with Caveman style tools. I bought the parts off Happybikes.co.uk, and I checked...
Go for it. Definitely will have no impact on the steering. The bottom triple is a solid piece with the stem.
True the frame on the CBX is not the prettiest, but it is very effective and I thought it was superior to the contemporaneous VF750F, being just...
I managed to make an inadvertant purchase decision to buy a VF750F when I borrowed it from the bike shop I worked at and took it for an exuberant...
Is that number plate a temporary unit applied by a dealer for test rides? In which case, I think the rider just made a purchase decision!
Me too Randy, but I find the lines on my 99 feel perfectly OK. I have thought about new front lines for my ST1300 until I saw the price....
The rubber coated stock brake lines tend to go a bit squishy with age (and yours are 28 years old now!) which robs the pads of some hydraulic...
If you are reasonably agile, checking clearances and then swapping shims if needed is pretty easy on a gear-drive VFR. It is even easier on a...
Is your little friend admitting to doing bad things in the airbox? Certainly looks guilty!
Maybe rodents have moved into the airbox and filled the air filter with useful (if you are a mouse) things that are impeding the airflow needed...
