  3. Brake caliper mounting bolt "Replace with new ones or not" 29 Dec 2012 20:58 motormike Just got back from a ride without Loctite on my used caliper bolts and new tires. I didn't die. Damn, the VFR is fun to ride! \m/ \m/ It's been a while now... Are you still alive? :D
  4. 91 Vfr Fork Swap 30 Nov 2012 21:35 First generation Kawasaki ZX-12R front is a direct swap! You get preload,compression and rebound adjustibility and 320mm brake discs with 6 pot brake calibers for a bonus. Wow, that sounds great! Do you happen to know,…
  5. 91 Vfr Fork Swap 14 Nov 2012 16:10 Btw, the CBR600F3 (in US-spec terminology) is a CBR600FS-W (in ROW-spec terminology). I used a VFR750FR-V front wheel on my VTR fork conversion, and could have used the rotors/discs as well, but ended up using…

  7. 91 Vfr Fork Swap 11 Nov 2012 10:01 This thread is very informative :) So, if one decides to do the VTR fork swap including the calipers. What about the discs
  8. 91 Vfr Fork Swap 9 Nov 2012 09:25 Just pre-load your existing forks with some spacers on top of the springs (I've used 2 pence pieces on older bikes before now - as for cost, around 8p a side!). I imagine lots of people will slate this cheap-skate idea…
  9. 91 Vfr Fork Swap 7 Nov 2012 13:32 You'd probably be better off buying a new pair of springs... OEM ones will be quite weak. Ciao, Good idea :) I bought a pair of Wilbers and some 15W oil. Quite heavy oil but very good on twisted, bumpy roads :D

  12. Brake caliper mounting bolt "Replace with new ones or not" 13 Oct 2012 16:50 I also reuse the bolts, an apply some Loctite 246 (medium strength) :) It's VERY important to rember the Loctite, as the caliper bolts can be loose with the risk of a serious crash :huh:
  13. Carb Gurus Please Help! 17 Sep 2012 12:49 Perhaps this answer is a little to simple: But did you rember to adjust the idle by using the plastic knob attached to the cable at the left hand side of the carbs? It's function is like the "stop position" of the carb…

  15. Helmet weight 21 Apr 2012 19:12 Last year I decided to buy the Shoei XR 1100 but ended up buying a Nolan N85. It's aerodynamic, comfortable, safe, pretty light and very ventilated. Good luck :)
