All 22- Adjusted Chain Last Week - One Week Later, Loose Again Bringing this back up, but the slack and loosening on this got bad - like touching the centerstand bad. Ill be shopping for a new chain and sprocket set. Thing is so loose I can probably remove it without breaking it.…
- How To: Replace 30amp Fuse Wires OK so I am trying to get the main positive battery terminal off using a soldering iron and pliers and this thing is not cooperating - there has got to be a better way. Can I just buy a new terminal plug? How are people…
- Adjusted Chain Last Week - One Week Later, Loose Again Ugh I guess my chain maintenance wasn't as good as I thought - so much for 500 mile cleaning and regreasing intervals. I should probably just grease it down after every ride now. Sooo next question - what's a good chain…
- Where to find ABS shock preload knob bracket? Cogswell, 10/3/2016 at 11:32 PM I took some photos about a year ago in this thread. http://www.vfrdiscussion.com/index.php?/forums/topic/79986-6th-gen-abs-shock-removal-in-pictures/ The 5th photo down may be what you're…
- Adjusted Chain Last Week - One Week Later, Loose Again Well this chain is now becoming a learning experience. After cleaning, lubing, and riding this morning, I rode home and heard a squeak. Get out, and now I hear this: [video:…
- Adjusted Chain Last Week - One Week Later, Loose Again 10 hours ago, Nobody Oh, sorry, that's what happen when I read only answers and forget what was the question. I use my built-in torque wrench in cases like this :D. Nope! No torque wrench to the chain, just the pinch…
- Adjusted Chain Last Week - One Week Later, Loose Again 2 hours ago, Cogswell In addition to Duc's questions, What is your maintenance regimen, are there any O-rings missing and does the chain appear to have a rust-looking color that maybe is getting on other components such…
- Adjusted Chain Last Week - One Week Later, Loose Again 13 hours ago, Duc2V4 A couple/few questions... 1). What make and size is the chain? I.e. D.I.D. 530 X-ring 2). When you adjusted it, did you make sure it was at the tightest part of the chain. Meaning that the chain is…
- Adjusted Chain Last Week - One Week Later, Loose Again Last week I did a pre ride check and noticed my chain hung down and TOUCHED the center stand (while the bike was on the sidestand). I was happy I caught this, and immediately tightened the chain and went riding. No…
- Where to find ABS shock preload knob bracket? OK - I got the following parts. I know I am missing a bolt but I can take care of that later. How does this mount? I feel like I need those collars from the above picture because I tried mounting it and the bolts seem…
- Recommended solutions to reduce wind noise I have a Bell RS-1 helmet and a double bubble windscreen. The double bubble helps, you can probably find a really tall touring specific windscreen to go further but in the end the windnoise will always be there. I'm not…
- eBay non-OEM mirrors Just a quick update, but these cheapo mirrors are working just fine (as long as you mount the cheapo stem to the OEM bracket mount)
- Where to find ABS shock preload knob bracket? I have been searching everywhere and I must be entering the wrong terms, so I thought I would ask. The previous owner relocated the rear shock adjustment knob inside the bike under the seat vs. on the right passenger…
- eBay non-OEM mirrors Well a quick update - ended up buying the cheap-o version and waiting for them to arrive. Looks wise, they are the same as OEM. I mounted it on, and that's when there was an issue - the hole that mounts the mirror arm…
- eBay non-OEM mirrors The stem of my left side mirror broke :mad: Looking for a new replacement set of mirrors, but unsure if going aftermarket is the way to go. Has anyone had experience mirror sets from eBay, such as these?…
- Sidestand Wobbling, Causing Excessive Lean Update here, but my sidestand bolt has been working great with no issues here. I do store the bike more on the centerstand, however.
- Throttle Cable Attachment You only need to lift up the tank to see where the cables turn the throttle bodies (image shown). You can make adjustments there also but you might first want to try removing the cable from the throttle body (very easy,…
- Throttle Cable Attachment So my kill switch connections were poor, so took the right hand assembly off and used some contact cleaner, dielectric grease, and I lubed the throttle cables while they were off. Went to reattach them.....annnnnnd the…
- Pair Block Off - Port Blocking The top hose is your crankcase brether hose. You need that. The other two similarly sized hoses are for the pair system. You can remove the valve and the hoses, being sure to plug or block the openings at the two heads.…
- Pair Block Off - Port Blocking So I got my PAIR block off plates from mello dude, they are great! I did the rear cylinder bank today, and I know I am supposed to block off and cap the old ports, but I am not sure which ones. Overall, I decided to…
- Ok, I'm Stoopid... Chain Adjustment? So I stumbled on this thread because I'm doing some checks before I take my bike to the track. This would be my first time at the track. Anyhow, it looks like my chain has been too TIGHT. I've always cleaned and oiled…
- Fuse Block Mounting Location? A while back, I bought the VFRness for my 6th gen and it's been great. I bought the bundled pack to get the fuse block. I figured I'd install it later. It's been a year :unsure: I'd like to fix that! I popped off the…
