All 19- Temp Fan Question There's only one fan on the bike i believe on the left side (hence then no feeling on the right side). https://www.ronniesmailorder.com/oemparts/a/hon/5053f632f870021c54be7e64/radiator
- Temp Fan Question In my attempts to solve the CBR concerns (probably not really an issue if it doesn't go higher than 240, but seeing it up go up on a hot day with the fan on and it not settling down was concerning). I noticed that the…
- Temp Fan Question Thanks for the responses guys. I thought about adding the override switch but forgot to do it before traveling for work (on the bike of course). it hasn't been an issue in Connecticut this year so far (i'm working…
- Temp Fan Question Roll over image to zoom in This type of coolant. Use it in all my stuff as its available at my local powersports store. I also have a on-going issue with a CBR that i trouble-shot and determined everything checks out…
- Temp Fan Question 07 VFR800 Quick question. I never see over 220~225 here on on east coast (fan cools the bike back down typically). Same coolant (I really need to replace soon) but i'd see 230+ continuous while traveling cross country…
- 1990 VFR750 Running/Starting Problems I recently found a great carb kit company outta texas in the US for all the carb parts for the V-4s. Great service, complete kit and good communication. I"ll try to find the name and get back to you. If you decide to…
- Bd40 rear shock install on 07 clearing pcv stay I have an ohlins on my recently sold track bike and my CBR. To rebuild a normal (non-ohlins shock) is roughly 90 bucks including parts and oil, To rebuild an Ohlins shock using there oil and materials was $175 bucks…
- Bd40 rear shock install on 07 clearing pcv stay I'm working with DMR having the straight fitting swapped with 45 degree fitting. Marooncobra You might consider doing the same at construction of the shock. To really see the bracket i had to pull the battery and the…
- Bd40 rear shock install on 07 clearing pcv stay Called Jamie yesterday, he said he intended the shock to have reservior on the shifter side. I think this stay would be exactly in the way on the other side too and you won't have enough hose lenght to mount to subframe…
- Bd40 rear shock install on 07 clearing pcv stay Anybody deal with this on a vfr. The bd40 reservoir lives on the shifter side of bike. But the pcv stay item 9 is already located where the hose needs to go. anybody have an easy solution 07 vfr non abs I.m wondering if…
- Making the VFR Better for 2up Touring I rode from maine to San Diego, CA and back with my wife on my 6G all but hitting the 4 corners of the US. Seperate trips with her about 2 years apart. Then did the trip on the VFR with a co-worker on his own bike a few…
- Cam Chain Tensioner, Without Throttle Body Removal You adjust the manual cam chain tensioner when you hear a rattle. or more likely,. Every oil change just because or every valve adjustment or somewhere in between. candyredrc46. with the work/time/ knowledge you have…
- Cam Chain Tensioner, Without Throttle Body Removal Just when you thought everybody was covered on this topic. From personal experience. Tapping the threaded holes for the front cam chain adjuster is miserable. So don't be like me and don't be lazy. Pull the airbox, pull…
- Throttle Body Overbore Teaser Okay, i'll bite. Doesn't "goes into" have to match "goes outta"? If you don't inlarge your exit bores (which i believe is dictacted by the valve size) aren't you just fluiding the cylinders? Just curious.
- 6th Gen - Blue Connector Ground Fix - How To. I'm sure you checked this but check your 30amp fuse as well. It killed my bike and looked burnt on my recent trip to N.S. it got me home by replacing the fuse (I was 4 days north). Anyway, good luck. Hopefully its just…
- Smoother Vtec Transition I agree it doesn't make any sense but the starter valve sync smoothed mine out on a "07". Its worth trying to see if it helps.
- Valve Cover Leak I used perametex gasket maker in the low points per the manual. It didn't say to add any more or i would have. I just read somewhere the gasket is a 3 flange unit that when clean shouldn't leak and that perametex…
- Valve Cover Leak Alright team a quick question about Valve cover gaskets. Mine decided to leak very slightly above the cam chain tensioner on the back cylinders. (no drip on the floor just some dust collected and obviously a slight oil…
- Slippery Seat Not sure if you solved this issue yet. On a cross country trip my girlfriend used a pad to make the seat less slippery. The pad was orginally used to keep rugs from sliding on hardwood floors. We cut a size to fit over…
