  1. Let's Ride Sat or Sun 6/10 or 6/11 23 Jun 2017 21:57 Man, I need to check the forums more often. We live in Santa Monica and would love to have ridden! Well, now that my moto is running again...
  2. No fan... 22 Jun 2017 16:11 Ah, according to the shop, all three items were the culprit. They said they couldn't get the fan to work at all. And for sure they saw the thermostat was stuck. Sorry, I should have given more info!
  3. No fan... 22 Jun 2017 15:28 Update 6/22/17: Took the bike to a local dealership we have a bit of a connection to, Century Cycles in San Pedro. Great folks there, especially owner Tim. They changed out the fan motor, switch and themostat. Picking…
  4. No fan... 6 Jun 2017 22:44 Well I gave up and took it to a local shop we have a bit of connection with. I'll update what they find... Thanks EVERYONE for your interest and help!!!!
  5. No fan... 29 May 2017 05:45 Thanks again for all the help and wisdom. Want to clarify though: Normally my temp stays at around 180 degrees when on the highway. The last two times I've ridden at highway speeds, the temp did NOT linger at 180 but…
  6. No fan... 28 May 2017 19:53 My Honda shop/race mechanic friend walked me through the burping scenario. After doing the no spill coolant funnel and running a few cycles I went for a ride on the highway. I realized the problem is not the fan...…
  7. No fan... 27 May 2017 19:31 Ok latest in this saga... Bought the spill proof funnel and ran the "cycle" twice -- set it up, ran moto, revved a few times, tipped to the left. Going to do one more cycle but so far no fan turn on
  8. No fan... 27 May 2017 02:41 Mark, First, thanks for all your help! So a buddy and I just talked on the phone. He's a former Honda shop mechanic and race mechanic. I reviewed it all with him and he thinks there's still air in the system. He…
  9. No fan... 27 May 2017 01:45 I touched it to the radiator. Should I touch it to somewhere else?
  10. No fan... 27 May 2017 01:14 The left radiator gets HOT! I checked a couple times. I've fussed with the radiator cap. Trying to figure out how to purchase one. I thought I could at my local (around the block) O'Reilly's but they don't seem to be…
  11. No fan... 27 May 2017 01:02 Hmmm one thought is do I need to clean the fan cable end as well?
  12. No fan... 27 May 2017 01:01 I burped/filled the system - nada, no fan. I actually did the thing where I used a paper clip to start the fan - fan started. I've read to try a new radiator cap... Any other thoughts???????
  13. No fan... 26 May 2017 23:50 Ugh... Cleaned the contacts and fan did not start when attached to the switch. Bought a new switch, installed and ran engine - still no fan. Once it cools down I'll do another fill/burp.
  14. No fan... 17 May 2017 04:30 Mark, Thanks again for the info. I'll clean the contacts per your suggestion and we'll see. Fingers crossed... Wayne
  15. No fan... 16 May 2017 22:24 Forum people! So a buddy FaceTime walked me through checking the fan switch. Turned ignition on (but engine not started), unplugged the lead cable, stuck in a paper clip, touched other end to radiator and boom, fan…
  16. No fan... 15 May 2017 04:56 Phew, ok thanks all! I'll be checking tomorrow and will update
  17. No fan... 15 May 2017 03:25 MarkDetroit thanks for the reply. Couple things: Ugh shit I don't know how to check what you're suggesting! I'll find someone to give me some wisdom. In your opinion then the thermostat is not the issue?
  18. No fan... 15 May 2017 01:43 2004 with 48k miles On a ride today in stop and go traffic and noticed temp up into 230's. Stopped for lunch and after heading home temp went up to 251 warning level. Pulled over, shut down and waited a few times and…

  21. Cam Chain Tensioner, Without Throttle Body Removal 3 Dec 2016 00:49 I took the key out of my new CCT, the shaft extended and now I don't know what to do... Going to change my front CCT tomorrow so I'm reviewing this excellent thread to get ready. Gathering tools, found the purchased CCT…
  22. Vtec electrical problems info post 26 Feb 2014 03:31 Quick update - one call to Honda USA yesterday and my vfr was ready today. Couldn't stop smiling, man I love my Interceptor.
  23. Vtec electrical problems info post 24 Feb 2014 03:50 Ugh, my '04 has been at the local shop now on it's fourth week with the shop and Honda USA trying to figure out the correct fix. So far it seems Honda is willing to do both (I believe there are two recalls...) recalls…
