1. I used the 500 cushions they went in just fine. 2. I have 120 in the front and the battlax 160 in the back I had a problem with the rear rubbing. I had to...
... My bike is an 84 Calif. model and i use the on the top of vacuum pod or the one furthest toward the rear of the bike. The other one I don't do anything...
1. The cush drive rubbers are the same, you can use either. 2. Dunlops work, I know that for sure. As Sam mentioned, Bridgestones 160's are too wide too....
Bought an 84 calif bike non running, oh yea I have never worked on a street bike, all the fuel delivery had been disconnected. I was using a 83 750 vfr as a...
My sons had accidentally ("this looks right, it must fit here") rigged a Cali model with the fuel delivery to the emissions vapor collection tubes. The bike...
Hello folks, can anyone please tell me whether there are aftermarket caliper pistons available aftermarket? Also are the front and rear caliper pistons on...
Not positive but the 1987-1990 CBR600F front calipers may fit a VF500F. I've looked at them before and they are very similar to the VFR700/VFR70 calipers....
I went out this weekend to work on it and in a completely atypical happenstance, the first thing I tried worked... I toggled the off/run switch and the light...
Sorry, but if the pistons are all the same, the calipers are different (FL, FR, and rear). Noël ... From: brumleyrick To: VF500F@yahoogroups.com Sent:...
I looked last night and Noel is correct. What's interesting about the VF500F's heavy iron calipers is that the same casting mold is used for all three...
Sorry again (LOL !), but the VF500 calipers are not iron, but light alloy. BTW, the VR500 pistons (calipers' ones, I mean !) are chromium plated steel, where -...

I had a similar problem when I switched to galfer lines two weeks ago my best advice (what I did) is to get a turkey baster, looks like a giant syringe, and a...
... So after using the turkey baster trick (thanks!) and bench bleeding my master cylinder i got most of the air out. One question- I can tell that the brake...
Try checking the caliper slide bolt/pins, they get fairly corroded. remove the slide pins and bolts and relubricate them with high temp brake grease or...
Apparently incorrect brake operation is going around like swine flu. I can't get the rear caliper to bite. I've bled the lines several times over using a...
Hey gang- I just purchased a pristine, original owner VF500f, 85 version, 13k miles. It's 100% bone-stock. Even has the Honda OEM seat cowl on the back, which...
Forgot one thing... Looking for a corbin for my new-to-me 85 model as well. Got 'em on everything else, may as well get one for the VF500. If you got one you...
G, Welcome! That seat cowl is not original equipment, that was an official Honda accessory back in the day. It was pretty uncommon for folks to open that...
