Jamie, After 3 weeks! of being in the repair shop (backorder on silencer gaskets) I got the VF back yesterday. The mechanic told me he'd ridden it a number of...
Dan, Hummmm, that doesn't sound right to me. The exhaust gaskets won't have any effect on the running of the bike, at least not to the degere you mentioned...
Yes I have had carbs ultra sonic cleaned, new floats, seats, needles, and synchronizing and i still have a flat spot going through 1st gear around 6,000 rpm,...
Wow Noel, You're having all the fun! Can't help with the issue's you're having but it's probably going to be about the same for me, since I'll be putting my...
Hi Pat and all, Seems you'll discover the opposite of what I had to ! ;o)) The number of changes the Honda guys made on this bike from 1984 to 1985 then 1986...
Hi Geoffrey I replaced mine with a Hagon monoshock a few months ago as I couldn't find an original part and second hand units were likely to be a knackered as...
I have the same problem... in looking at the info on Jamies site am I correct when I say that, with the exception of buying a used direct replacement (ebay or...
... chances ... and ... it does ... result ... that's ... Hi mtrem, Not sure if the F2 is a direct bolt on - maybe another member can answer this. Something...
You're afraid of 'severe personal injury' from a spring mod yet ride a motorcycle? Fascinating. I have much better control over the tools in my garage then...

DITTO to Jon's comments. I also went with the F4i mod. The babyceptor never rode so nice. The reservoir is easily hidden behind the left panel. It's a real...
Anyone heading to INDY for the Redbull Moto GP race at the end of August? Got my ticket and (gulp) camping/parking pass. Open for some pointers. Expecting...
Dan, Oh yeah, I'll be there. I'll probably ride down on either the SuperHawk or the 1098 though, the VF's are mainly just for weekend/short trip usage. We...
Hey, I'm parting out a high-miles motor (135K!) with I think a thrown rod and will be listing it on Ebay, but is anyone looking for something specific? I'd be...
Bike is dying after driving it highway speeds for 15 to 20 miles then when I slow down to around 15 to 20 mph then something gets heat soaked (my opinion) then...
Are you sure it's losing spark? Could it be something simple like fuel tank vent? Maybe ride with a voltmeter visible to see if something's happening to ...
Would a tank vent issue make the bike die as though you turned the key off? There is no stumble or anything, just likem you turned the key off. Not trying to...
