Randy, those are impressive miles! Curious- did the routine maintenance include valves? sgarper: I hope your situation is resolved to your...
That stupid little cap is $10.89 at Bike Bandit. I'd put a cork in it before I spent that.
Well, shit. I went to WBW and got all enthused, looked for it on Amazon, then read the rest of this thread :mad:
Update: Problem solved! Took off the bar-end and the throttle snapped back just like it should. It was the throttle tube working its way out and...
That's terrific, although I'd rather have help with the throttle than the "joke". :playful:
8th gen? I don't get it. Hey, don't underestimate how difficult something might be for me. It'll be difficult by the time I'm done with it. So,...
Hi guys, On my ride today I found my throttle to be stiffer than usual and not snapping back when let go. It does return, but slowly. What should...
Nice bike. Nice eyebrows :playful:
This is what my stator looked like when my volt meter started dropping. Got a new one and soldered the wires. Trouble free since.

Guys, Since first posting I've found this pic. What do you think?
I love the yellow of the 5th gens. Has anybody ever painted a 6th gen that same yellow?
I just went out and tried it. Took three tries to perfect the technique- it really works!
That sounds like a good plan. Is it the same stuff you put around the plug?
Those of you who have replaced your stators- did you leave the gasket dry or use a sealant? If sealant, just the outside? I know about sealing...
When I bought my '03, there were no handles, but there were blockout plates to cover up the holes. I guess some guys take them off because they...
A (temporary) alternative to painting is dipping. The latest post is a blue CBR which is just beautiful.
Yours was silver, then painted red- mine was red, then painted silver. I don't understand why, if a guy goes to all the trouble to paint the bike,...
They say the '03 was the best VFR. My '03 was also red, but the PO painted it silver. Next time you go for a really long ride on the VFR, jump...
