I'm going to get an experienced mechanic who was recommended to me to ride the bike next. I would love to take a video - i'll try again to get...
him and the technician are saying nothing is wrong.... this kinda sucks... if this was a car, I'd be all over it! I'm going to try the 09, then...
I first changed the bearings due to noise. On removal, I found that 1 of them had traces of rust - I thought I'd found the problem. I reinstalled...
I know this is going to be a noob question, but how do you sync throttle bodies, and what does that accomplish? and yes, it's kinda summer up...
I'm also wondering if it's normal. I'm runnning BT021's now. They're brand new this year - last year's set had a strange wear pattern - they were...
Yes, I paid the dealer. They charged me about 1/2 the original estimate. I'm okay with that - if I did indeed screw up the install when I did...
2002 VFR, 35,000 kms (approx) When I first start up my bike in the morning, she idles rough. If I try to blip the throttle, the bike will...
Great Bike - Congrats! I still remember riding mine home the day I got it.....
the problem is when you combine the 2 - my girlfriend loves riding with me on my bike.... i don't like it so much.....
could be speedo, but isn't it electronic? Tire pressure is good - been triple checked. I'm thinking transmission? Do these bikes have...
Got the bike back last week on Wed and promptly went for a 300 km ride. The noise is still there, but the dealer is now saying it's normal. They...

I agree, sorta :) The problem is that the noise didn't change when I changed the bearings... I'm thinking the noise is coming from somewhere else.
so I took the calipers back off to spin the wheel, so noise. I figured I probably wasn't spinning fast enough, so I tried using a wheel on an...
i will try that in the next few days - bike is sleeping at a friend's house in the meantime.
I have tried that. I'd love to find a way to drive with the front calipers off, but there's no way I can do it as i'm in the city....
is it normal that the pads make noise against the discs? They aren't impeeding the wheel from turning in anyway.
i was thinking the exact same thing Lgn001, but I took both the calipers off today to double check - nothing there. I also pushed all 6 pistons...
yeah, i rechecked again for free-play today and there is zero. The new bearings didn't change the noise at all.... I dunno. I'm beginning to...
Ok, so I took a look at the bike for a few mins. The line on the axle wasn't lined up, so I lined it up, but the noise is still there. With the...
