  2. Just changed the LCD meters and gauges combination colour! 6th GEN 18 Jan 2017 00:09 13 hours ago, zedosagrioes First you guys need to buy the LEDs, than I'll help you out. It's the hardest part :D (at least for me, I think I can handle some soldering). Where did you get them from? How much was it? What…
  3. Lost Keys 9 Nov 2016 14:29 16 hours ago, gmtech94 Getting the switch out is really not too hard to do . Is it possible without the key? idk about these, but many locks in different applications I've seen require a matching key to remove them from…
  4. Clatter/Rattle from engine (6Th Gen VTEC) 1 Nov 2016 00:05 Woodie, 10/29/2016 at 2:15 PM Well, the saga so far, replaced both CCT's still rattling. Woodie, 10/30/2016 at 5:29 AM I was thinking of recording it. First I have to rebuild the engine! :blush: Just next time when you…
  5. Clatter/Rattle from engine (6Th Gen VTEC) 24 Oct 2016 21:39 I kinda agree, but you never know.. It is possible to ruin even Honda's engine with improper care (or not). I would measure the compression in cylinders and try to locate the origin of sound with smth like this…
  6. Clatter/Rattle from engine (6Th Gen VTEC) 22 Oct 2016 13:51 I think this was the post I followed recently. In result I found this http://partsfinder.onlinemicrofiche.com/hondaofcrofton/showmodel.asp?Type=13&make=hondamc&a=465&b=10&c=0&d=2002 VFR800 INTERCEPTOR CAM CHAIN ASSY W/…
  7. Adjusted Chain Last Week - One Week Later, Loose Again 19 Oct 2016 03:21 I never clean my chains apart from when washing a bike, then i wash a chain with a sponge too. Haven't noticed that being a problem. So in my opinion cleaning is more for aesthetic purposes. If i have to lube it…
  8. Adjusted Chain Last Week - One Week Later, Loose Again 19 Oct 2016 02:05 Worst thing there - replacing chain/sprocket set. Afaik if chain is dry under the o-rings, you can throw it out. In your case I would buy the set or prepare myself to expenses :D and check on this chain often to see if…
  9. Adjusted Chain Last Week - One Week Later, Loose Again 18 Oct 2016 14:33 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.
  10. Adjusted Chain Last Week - One Week Later, Loose Again 18 Oct 2016 12:58 9 hours ago, WalkThisWhey 1) No clue - owner said it was new when I bought the bike, and it was indeed in good condition 2) BINGO - before I did not find the tight spot. Now I found the tight spot, so I will see how…
  11. Rough running after storage 21 Sep 2016 04:04 Another idea - spark plugs.
  12. Lights Problem 3 Mar 2016 20:23 That's what i was also saying; left-right - ok, but not in the sky. English men may ride on the other side of the road, but the beams are aiming likewise, not in the sky. Perhaps you have Australian lights, they ride…
  13. Lights Problem 1 Mar 2016 03:16 yes, the lights fit ok into the headlight housing. the headlight housing itself fits ok on the front frame. Physically speaking, everithing fits ok, without forcing any piece or anything similar This was the first that…
  14. Riding Particularities In D.c. For A European Rider. 13 Feb 2016 03:27 Well, idk how it is in larger embassies, but in our small one diplomats can't get easy away from anything. in OFM (where vehilces are registered) if you have unpaid parking/speeding tickets, you can't renew registration…
  15. Riding Particularities In D.c. For A European Rider. 12 Feb 2016 05:29 Previous guy in my position had staff plates on the car. i guess that's worst case of all :D from distance look like diplomatic, but they aren't. idk if there is smth different for a motorbike. and diplomats still pay…
  16. Riding Particularities In D.c. For A European Rider. 9 Feb 2016 14:38 timmythecop An example: Get out of anywhere that ends in "Terrace" "Heights" or "Dwellings". These are projects. In other words, a place the government stacks up all the very, very poor and hopes for the best. If you…
  17. Riding Particularities In D.c. For A European Rider. 8 Feb 2016 21:26 Rectaltronics This thread is making me LMFAO, starting with timmythecop saying "Do not go to Southeast. You will be killed and then further inconvenienced." The gazelle/lion thing brings back fond memories, like…
  18. Riding Particularities In D.c. For A European Rider. 7 Feb 2016 19:54 Well, i said i haven't seen anything dangerous so far even walking around at night. But i'm in NW part of city, it looks pretty safe here :)
  19. Riding Particularities In D.c. For A European Rider. 7 Feb 2016 14:50 Thanks for answers! Duc2V4 Paging TimmyTheCop... but if they feel you are endangering your life or the lives of others, you'll be sure to get stopped. Not my style to ride like a madman, I just usually go some 10mph…
  20. Riding Particularities In D.c. For A European Rider. 7 Feb 2016 05:40 Hi, all! I would appreciate a little help here. I've never been in USA before and now I'm in Washington D.C. for 3 years and I have my VFR with me. Will start riding now as I've received temporary number plate. But here…

Electrical Starting Problems - Need Troubleshooting Guidance 28 Sep 2014 12:43 If you have a voltmeter, connect it to the battery and look at the readings on battery before and while pressing starter button. 1) Charged battery should be over 12V if not - probably the battery is dead. Jump start or…
  23. 6Th Gen Fill Up Questions/tips? 18 Sep 2014 05:51 wgregt With breathless anticipation, today I attempted to solve the receding gas question. Or at least try like hell to see how full is actually full. While riding, the last bar began to blink, and I decided today was…
  24. 6Th Gen Fill Up Questions/tips? 8 Sep 2014 06:04 wgregt Here's my question though: when I fill up (on all my bikes) I get it up to the neck, stop, and it then recedes a bit. So I put more in. And it recedes a bit. I do this a few times, and I run out of nerve before I…
