  1. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 16 Apr 2014 02:48 Also small video I did for a few friends who ride kind of shows what I got left to do. My paddock stands come in today, Think I should drill and tap for the rear or just all thread it? Going to get that read wheel off…
  2. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 16 Apr 2014 02:16 Also note, manual clutch bleeding ~~ I am probably not the first to do this but, clutch master and lever come in today. So I installed it and started bleeding the old school way but after a good 30 minutes that got old…
  3. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 16 Apr 2014 02:03 Also found the selling list, took some digging but I thought I had lost it. Turns out I saved it so well I lost it, if that makes sense. Entire front end is from a 2003 CBR954RR with RC51 front wheel. Out back, the…
  4. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 15 Apr 2014 23:54 Thanks buddy. Honda still carry these ? Bit late to call.
  5. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 14 Apr 2014 17:06 Well most the tail is made up now, should have the key in today. Looks a little crooked due to the bolts being loose until im ready to button everything up, rain was coming so I wrapped her back up and went back inside…
  6. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 8 Apr 2014 13:52 Phone won't let me upload after I attach the photo. Hard to explain
  7. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 6 Apr 2014 23:51 Current state of the bike
  8. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 3 Apr 2014 02:48 Sounds like a plan. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll be updating soon with my progress.
  9. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 1 Apr 2014 01:52 gll429 dude this is a VFR the plugs arnt THAT bad. drain the oil and clean the carbs and if you keep it gravity feed add a remote inline gas cut off valve [image: gasvalve_zps2b634363.jpg] Dude I'm glad you're…
  10. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 1 Apr 2014 00:50 I know the bike needs rejetted & balanced. Been knowing but that's on the back burner at the moment. Love the pictures haha, we're so much alike in taste haha. But seriously, I would know if I had a piston ring or…
  11. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 1 Apr 2014 00:16 So here are the plugs the test was a bust have to order the right adapter. These all seem good to me by looking at a plug chart. Comments? [image: post-29573-0-61090700-1396311185.jpg][image:…
  12. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 31 Mar 2014 19:05 Believe my next step is a Compression test. Will probably do that today I think some piston rings are out
  13. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 31 Mar 2014 10:54 I held my tank up. Cut off works fine I'm going to pull the carb again and recheck the floats. Also do a compression test Need to replace my boots that the carb sits on hard as a rock and sync this bad boy
  14. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 31 Mar 2014 02:03 Ok so the guy before me took the fuel pump out and it's gravity fed now. I am getting gas in my oil somehow, I pulled the carb off and inspected and cleaned in today. The floats seemed very good, the carbs were in good…
  15. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 30 Mar 2014 19:08 Edit boot had a small rip at the bottom, ordered a rebuilt kit.
  16. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 30 Mar 2014 17:37 The Phantom It's not uncommon for the slave piston to stick. What usually happens is it will still move far enough to actuate the clutch, but it won't ever retract right back into the cylinder - so it always keeps some…
  17. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 30 Mar 2014 01:48 I just replaced this thing very recently. when I popped it off the piston was pumping? Should it pump farther that half way, or what I thought was half way. Is this why my bike will grind & die as if the clutch needed…
  18. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 30 Mar 2014 01:17 We're talking about the piston on the slave correct? I did all that it'd come out half way and thats it I didnt want to stick pliers on there for fear on damaging or knicking the smooth surface Edited March 30, 2014 by…
  19. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 29 Mar 2014 23:45 Well so far no good about to pull the slave apart Can't get the piston to fall out
  20. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 29 Mar 2014 19:56 Just need to get rotella dino oil? 10w40?
  21. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 29 Mar 2014 14:40 Thanks for the advice. That will be the next thing I do.
  22. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 29 Mar 2014 08:09 It physically stalls out the clutch has excellent pressure.
  23. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 29 Mar 2014 01:56 Bit of an update, I got my brake together and bled. It's a tight fit but works well. I got my 1000rr nose fairing & headlight in also 1 mid fairing. Once I get the other side and the inner fairing all that should go on…
  24. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 23 Mar 2014 02:22 Edit, answered my own question =P (Search bar working as intended) Edited March 23, 2014 by NoobMaskim
  25. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 22 Mar 2014 18:24 You're right. These were also thoughts I had going to pick up a welder soon and possibly do that if all else fails
  26. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 22 Mar 2014 16:14 I personally like it on the side ;)
  27. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 22 Mar 2014 15:58 SEBSPEED 900RR and 929RR footrests are NOT the same. You need the 93-98 CBR900RR parts. Come to think of it, I believe I have some spare VFR footrests that would work for you. Oops mistype meant ordered the 99 900rr…
  28. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 22 Mar 2014 15:40 Ok guys small update on my plans with this bike ~~ First off THANK YOU ALL for the information you have provided for me. I have ordered new gasket picked up some for-a-gasket going to juice the original gasket up JUST A…
  29. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 22 Mar 2014 00:24 SEBSPEED 900RR footrests are a direct bolt on for the 4th gen. I have done it myself. Direct, as in, direct. No filing or re-drilling or "it's close so just hammer that bolt in". Also, you may be able to space the…
  30. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 21 Mar 2014 19:58 mcrwt644 that bracket for the rear brake I believe is off a 3rd gen vfr, not a fourth. Rear brake mount, how about a stock 900rr mount and line?…
  31. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 21 Mar 2014 15:53 This is what is currently on the bike I see where the piston would mount on this but I don't see where a brake pedal would go and rotate or actuate. However. [image: post-29573-0-77892000-1395417095.jpg] And this is the…
  32. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 21 Mar 2014 15:04 Right now im trying to figure out how to remove the tank and check the float/valve. I have forgot to turn the fuel valve off before could that be a reason? I was told the gas would end up on the ground after a bit, I…
  33. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 21 Mar 2014 14:41 apexandy Does your oil smell like fuel? It's possible your float/ needle valve has some debris allowing gas to leak into the engine. The creamy colored oil is unnerving. Perhaps condensation? Drained the oil and yes, it…
  34. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 21 Mar 2014 04:51 Those were my next steps Andy, planned on draining the oil, ill be sure to check for scratches/leaks. I honestly think the oil is from that leak and from sitting under a tarp in weather. Im in lousiana so you know it…
  35. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 21 Mar 2014 04:40 No it's spitting clean out the seal when I rev the engine. [video: https://www.youtube.com/embed/Mj-kAxWD50I?feature=oembed]
  36. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 21 Mar 2014 04:15 Seat keef erbilabuc well yeah thats a fiberglass 1000rr rear fairing but its not oem. The swing arm is from a different bike. The gasket you need is real cheap and easy to fix. I do not suggest a Koso gauge unless its…
  37. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 21 Mar 2014 02:07 Any advice for a website that doesnt use paypal as payment form (long story with them jerks) to buy a gasket etc, assuming honda doesnt carry this stuff anymore? America Edited March 21, 2014 by NoobMaskim
  38. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 21 Mar 2014 01:52 I never seen a 5th gen in his garage. Seen a SF Buel

  40. My Vfr 750 Project < Lots Of Questions > 20 Mar 2014 23:04 Ok so lets start off, over a year ago I picked up this bike to learn how to ride, I snagged it dirt cheap needing some work. This was a project bike probably from a member off of this site. That's ok I am a project kind…
