  1. Staintune... but open to suggestions 15 Nov 2011 06:17 Hey guys, I'm pretty close to buying a 6th gen VFR800 tomorrow, its spanking new condition 21k kms on the clock, shiny and red but it is bog stock standards :( I will want to upgrade the exhaust (cans only), get a K&N…
  2. Misfiring Problem 17 Dec 2009 04:46 [image: View Post]Flip, on 16 December 2009 - 08:26 PM, said: The pulse generator is bolted inside the clutch cover. Section 17 of the manual has a test procedure but requires a peak voltage adaptor, I have never tested…
  3. Misfiring Problem 17 Dec 2009 00:02 No I know it's not heat per se, but heat is causing something (possibly the Ignition Pulse Generator) to pack it in. Granted, the bike has seen engine temps as hot as 107C before, but normally not in extremely hot…
  4. Misfiring Problem 16 Dec 2009 06:22 It happened again! But I think I know where to start looking now. Well today the temp reached a steamy 40 degrees. The bike started up normally and was running normally until I had to sit in some gridlock traffic and…
  5. Misfiring Problem 28 Sep 2009 00:11 Hey guys, I replaced the plug cap on the weekend and the bike is running great now. It has no idling issues and runs really smooth. I did however rev the bike up very slowly to see if there were any problem areas and if…
  6. Misfiring Problem 23 Sep 2009 01:19 Quote I must also unplug the PCII once again, just to confirm to myself once more that it's not a problem (and to get some warm fuzzies about how much it improves the fueling!) Yeh I sometimes need reminding as well,…
  7. Misfiring Problem 22 Sep 2009 22:44 Hey guys, the ride to work this morning was like a ride through heaven, at idle the needle sat on 1.300rpm like it was stuck on with glue, and the bike responded without hesitation right through the rev range. Last…
  8. Misfiring Problem 21 Sep 2009 22:43 Thanks enzed. So I'll just replace the cap/lead combo, may have to sell the bike to finance this however, Honda seem to think they are diamond tipped or something. :fing02: Just had a thought, you mentioned rain, I…
  9. Misfiring Problem 21 Sep 2009 22:20 Ok I found the source of the clicking noise, it is definitely spark arching, and it seems to be coming from the left rear spark plug cap and grounding to the cam cover, I could see it in low light. So my question is how…
  10. Misfiring Problem 20 Sep 2009 23:51 Baily dc'ing the PC was one of the fist things I tried, it made no difference, only making the bike feel less exciting :P I replaced the AIT sensor as a precaution when the problem first started and it made no…
  11. Misfiring Problem 18 Sep 2009 04:31 Yes it did sound very injector-pulse-like actually. I assumed it was a spark plug, but it was probably too 'fast' for that. The funny thing is I've never heard that sound before on this bike, and I'm pretty tuned in to…
  12. Misfiring Problem 18 Sep 2009 03:11 Hey mate thanks for the info, albeit relatively bad news :P Looks like I've got a big job a head of me. The link you provided doesn't really sound relevant to what I'm currently experiencing though, but it's probably…
  13. Misfiring Problem 16 Sep 2009 00:46 Hey guys, I've had a problem with my bike for quite some time now. It seems to come and go intermittently and the symptoms have changed relatively as well over the past 2 years. The problem causes the bike to misfire.…
