Aside from an all-the-time leak from a damaged hose or o-ring, you can also have fuel leakage from the carb overflows if the float valves don't...
I had some severe corrosion on the spigot where the coolant expansion tank hose connects at the radiator filler neck on my ST1100, and I used a...
Honda seems to be pretty good at continuing supply of many maintenance-level parts and they seem to be reasonably priced in the main....
The "arcing" sound is probably the electric solenoid valve that drives the flapper valve actuator. This is operating intermittently causing a...
That is a great find, well done. I bought a ST1100 that had been parked up for 10 years but the tyres had too much tread left to discard. I rode...
I thought I recognised that name from the VTR forums where I also lurk! Welcome here! Link to a manual:...
Without knowing exactly which year VFR you have, I'm assuming it is an 800 with FI as you mention the fuel pressure regulator. On the 98-01 bikes...
If it was good until you changed the fuel pump...I'd look at that first. You should be using a very low pressure pump, too much will overcome the...
If this is a bike that has been parked up for a long time, maybe the clutch plates are just glued together by old oil.
Well its been some decades since I owned a 500, but a quick bit of Googling suggests that yes both the big and small holes are stock standard. My...
You would have had plenty of oily residue sitting in the exhausts, so no surprises that it smoked badly when first run. Probably needs an "Italian...
Can't answer your "parade" mode flashing, but the flasher relay shows as the middle of three in the service manual (with the others being listed...
Certainly sounds like it just ran out of fuel in the carbs, the fuel tap and fuel pump would be my primary targets. I think "bad gas" would be a...
There is also a magic sequence for bearings, the right one gets driven home fully seated, the left is driven in until it snugs up against the...
I had a Delkevic tri-oval on my VFR800, and was very happy with it. Good finish, decent sound and came with a dB killer (which I never used).[IMG]
I've had T30 Evos on my VTR1000F for 8000km and had absolutely no issues with them, or indeed with any Bridgestones that have gone through (and...
I'm not sure that I am seeing any real problem there. Hearing some pad drag on the disc surface is normal, and from your video that looks like...
If freeing the buttons doesn't help, next you may want to look at whether one of your discs has had a bit of a bump, very easy to bend the alloy...
Weak sparks may likely be a result of general corrosion in terminals. I'd suggest you disconnect them all and clean then apply some dielectric...
Some possibilities: Debris caught in the fan so it can't spin easily? (e.g. grass, a rock) Bad earth reducing the current flow through the motor?...
