what did you do to your vfr today?

Sooo...what's the verdict? Did you get this done?

 

I changed the oil today, checked the air pressure (put some in), got the chain all shiny.

 

Yup, didn't finish Monday and couldn't work on it yesterday, Finished about an hr ago.
Took it out for a shakedown and holy crap, on the 118 with all the joints and bumps...smooth as silk.
Taking it out in the canyons next Monday, maybe you can join.

 

Would be a fun ride. So Ootv gave you his custom map?

Yeah, we probably should clarify this, I helped load a map into the PCV, I didn't create one.

 

Swapped my stock foot pegs for a pair off a cbr250rr. Needed foot pegs a little lower as adjusting gear shift lever on the spline proved too much or too little. Hope it'll work as haven't gone for a ride yet

 

Correctly adjusted my manual cam chain tensioners. I haven't ridden it yet, but start up was quieter.

 

Started selling off my VF750 parts as with 3 VF1000R's there is no realistic way I will live long enough to get around to restoring a VF750F.
So today a pair of NOS mufflers and a collector box went to a new owner with 2 VF750F's which he is getting back on the road.

 

Bled my rear brake on the 93, took opportunity to clean the bike a bit since I removed the rear wheel and exhaust canister. Dialed in a few turns of pre-load on my rear shock.

 

^ nice garage MxW, love early TAs' nice bike collection :thumbsup:

 

Took the 2000 VFR out for a short ride today to blow off some of the cobwebs that were collecting on the bike at my shop, and picked up supplies for the winterization on all 3 bikes. Had to clean the poor girl afterwards since the days trip started out nice but ended in the pouring rain. Brought the bike into the garage and gave her a quick coat of wax, and then removed the lower cowls to change the oil. Then flushed the brakes, the clutch and changed out the coolant. Still not quite ready to put the poor old Viffer away just yet, but I'm sure the first snowfall of the season is fast approaching, so I'll try for a couple more rides. LOL

Flushed the front/rear brakes and clutch lines on the wife's 96 VFR, changed the oil, and prepped the bike for winter storage. Poor bike hardly accumulated any miles this year and my wife has decided that it may be time to sell the 96 come spring.

Plan on finishing off the winterization on the 96 VFR tomorrow and covering her up in the corner of the garage. Time to make room in the centre of the garage for the winter projects on the wife's new-to-her CB400T.

 

@cadbury- agreed. I'm always suspicious of guys who paint their floors white/ light colors. It's like they're trying to rub my slovenliness in my face.
There's probably animals living in mine you could hunt for sport.
Then again it doesn't look like he dropped the axles out of his one-ton diesel in there ever either.

 

I need to add to above- I've always wanted my shop to look like that- it's a jealous reaction.

 

Hate ta burst your bubble my peeps, it's my neighbors garage....floor deffinatley isn't painted.
The guys an bike builder, welder, and also paints.
Jack of all trades, sure would love to have that harbor freight lift, sure made things for the old guys alot easier. ..

 

Put new can on, went out to test it.

 

Replaced the shock linkage due to some slop.........neglect by PO. Trimmed the windscreen by 2.5". New chain/sprockets next week. I have a feeling it sat up for a few years.

 

SCORPS, ROCK ON....looks great

 

As noted in another thread, I installed my factory Honda smoke tint screen today.

 

RVFR, is the fit perfect?
