Hi gang. In the event anyone wants it, I have the following pdf files for the interceptors 1. parts catalog for the 83 and 84 vf750 2. parts catalog for the...
hi dutch, your offer for manuals and info is exciting. I have a 85 vf500f, that I bought new in 85. I would love to have the items you could transfer to me. ...

You can disconnect one spark plug lead and see if the sound goes away, if not reconnect that lead and try another. If it goes away when the lead is ...
If yo're in Italy maybe. Apparantly the bike has bad compression and he's selling it as non-running bike. Plastics look great but you'd need to confirm that...
That sonds odd to me. Unfortunately you have no idea what the current position is of that screw so it'd be difficult to set all the others to tha one since...
... I gave it a shot and I didn't notice any difference in ticking when I unplugged each spark plug. Spun bearings were a pretty big concern for me, replacing...
BEWARE when disconnecting a plug lead on bikes which have coils with twin spark plugs outlets : The disconnected plug lead SHOULD BE directly connected to...
The way to avoid this is to attach a plug to the disconnected lead and hold the ground on the plug to a grounded bolt or some such while cranking or running. I...
Rod knock is the 2nd thought (after valves) Double check the valve springs, there are INNER and OUTER ones, an inner may have broken. Did you check valve lash...
That sounds like a worn/damaged cam follower, when mine have fgone up they sound almost like a bottom-end problem. That a very close look at the cam...
As Craig mentioned lighter oil is for lower temperatures. I spoke to what oil to run with a Honda of America Factory Tech in the 80's (and yes, oil has...
I don't think the carbs have had a sync yet. I rebuilt the crabs this weekend. The bowls were all pretty clean. Just had to clean the jets out. 2 of the...
Does the idle adjustment have any effect at all? If not, here's a long shot from my own experience: When you (or the shop) reassembled the carbs, did they...
I did the rebuild and I didn't mess with any of the linkages so that wouldn't be the problem. I did and check and the spring is there. I just went outside...
... They both seem to be alright, no visible damage. ... Yeap. I followed the proceedure in the FSM ... This is certainly a possibility, but I wouldn't know...
It is hard to tell from the photo but look at the left follower in the picture. Instead of curving outward there is a section toward the bottom that curves...
Does anyone know where to get just these decals? I am in the process of doing a paint job on the bike, and instead of spending $200 on a decal set (that still...
Why not email cbdecals and ask them how much for just the V-FOUR decals? He made me full decal sets without all the caution labels/helmet holder decals, etc....
Now that you've explained it it is actually very clear the damage on the rocker. I pulled my intake camshaft and the intake rocker and cam on cylinder 2 are...
Yes, you can remove the valve follower/rocker without removing the head. Check carefully for damage to the cam itself, you may be able to reuse it if it shows...
So I repainted my bike this winter, finally put it all back together, and I'm missing the little screen filter that goes up inside the gas tank. Does anyone...
plaskowski, I have no doubt that the camshaft is also toast. The cam is notibly asymmetric and differently shaped than the intake cam on the #4 cylinder (that...
I must not have been descriptive enough in my OP. bikebandit says it's discontinued, and the local big shop says they can't get one. It's the plastic and...
I need one of those as well, should have taken more care getting the old one out, guess if the tank is really clean the bike could be run without the screen...
