The stock OEM rear master cylinder piston is too big for the caliper piston area (3 together) to be an effective system, whether they are hooked...
YES!!! :Peace:
Wow, your bike is the very first 1200 I have heard that may have a charging problem. My first guess is your battery is shot... Do a charge...
Honda uses the same base casting for near all the rear master cylinders, anything in the early 2000s should do it. Double check the piston size....
If your rears are completely independent now, at least upgrade to a 14mm master cylinder. You could do that simple and cheap... Parts are any...
Just comments opinion and fodder.. My geekness just jumping out. Never been a fan of that Hel kit. It disables the system, true, but you leave 4...
Red is the fastest :wheelie:
Beautiful bike, welcome.
Back to the sticker photo under the seat?
Prayers and best wishes for fast and full recovery.
Hey - great idea! Maybe the bike is an import....
Congrats to you! :wheelie:
Yes! Curiosity kills the cat... maybe the factory had some leftover red parts? Maybe 2 friends bought VFRs yellow and red and swapped as Greg...
Welcome new 5th genner... I'll see if I can answer some of your questions... - Your first riding comment is the sound is divine... I agree...
Great stuff! Wow!
Generally a low mile '99 is the holy grail, but then on the MK2s most people upgrade the header and plenty other stuff, so it really doesn't...
Yeah, just curiosity, ---- the 5th gens models were the MK1 ('98/'99) with a fast idle lever/no cat, with slight larger dia header/Open circuit...
Once in awhile, I get the itch to find one to build into a streetfighter, something crazy fun... Not many out there.... Photos of yours?
Welcome new 5th gen guy! If I remember, a CR500 is a big single two stroke bike, do you have one of those?
Welcome new 5th gen guy!
