- 1994 vfr750 repairs. Looking for some input I think they were 5/8th or 1/2" but I'm not positive. I'll go pick it up tonight and measure/seal them. With the snorkel in and all those holes I am pretty sure that is more airflow combine than just having the snorkel…
- 1994 vfr750 repairs. Looking for some input Has anyone ever done or seen the holes drilled in the air box before? I can't find anything on it. Should I plug them up and just leave the snorkel off? I'm doing the snorkel for sound and because it doesn't hurt…
- 1994 vfr750 repairs. Looking for some input 5 hours ago, Dutchy I'd just cut a bit of foam.... (or live w/o it....) Plug gapper? In my 35+ years I never ever did that. Just source new sparkies..... Haha well I didn't get this in time as I bought a gapper and…
- 1994 vfr750 repairs. Looking for some input 19 hours ago, Dutchy Yes, if it is still in 1 piece.. It is just a thin bit of foam. Mine was gone by the time I inspected it... :-) Hmmm hopefully it is still there. Waiting for parts is never fun and it looks to be…
- 1994 vfr750 repairs. Looking for some input Can I clean the sub air filter with just soap and water?
- 1994 vfr750 repairs. Looking for some input 12 minutes ago, NateV8 Hmmm 15$ a plug seems kinda expensive. Does anyone have the part number for the NGK iridium plugs CR9EHIX? Are they a threaded top? Nevermind, the website I use has the best price at $13 a plug.

- 1994 vfr750 repairs. Looking for some input squirrelman, 2/13/2018 at 8:24 PM Plug gap about .030"-.032" +2 on rear is within the eccentric adjustment range for using stock-length chain. but as the dutchman sez, alloy rear sprockets wear out quick. :sleep: if you…
- 1994 vfr750 repairs. Looking for some input Perfect, thanks for the pic. Any preference on spark plugs for the 750? plug gap? https://fortnine.ca/en/ngk-iridium-ix-spark-plug What about chain and sprocket brands? I found this…
- 1994 vfr750 repairs. Looking for some input OK that is good to know. I haven't seen the bike since october. Where is the petcock located? When cleaning the calipers, Any parts/grease needed? or just clean with brake cleaner? Any recommendations for spark plugs?
- 1994 vfr750 repairs. Looking for some input I got the bike last spring and I've done my oil change and filter before storage, changed clutch and brake fluid, changed fluid and top seals in the front forks. Calipers are on the eventually to do list, maybe I will…
- 1994 vfr750 repairs. Looking for some input Hi everyone So seeing as I have my vfr stored in a friends garage this winter I'm going to get some repairs done while waiting for spring. The front valve cover looks to be weeping. Although it doesn't look like it's…
- 94 VFR replacing leaking fork seals, what oil for stock springs/light rider? I called my mechanic this morning and told him the CC but I guess there wasn't any language barrier as he said the 177mm was fine and told me how you measure the 177mm. I was worried for nothing. Thanks for the chart!…
- 94 VFR replacing leaking fork seals, what oil for stock springs/light rider? Does anyone know roughly how much oil the stock 4Gs take with a 177mm air gap? I called my mechanic today and there is a bit of a language barrier (I live in Quebec and I don't speak french very well). When I told him…
- 94 VFR replacing leaking fork seals, what oil for stock springs/light rider? Ah yes that works too haha
- 94 VFR replacing leaking fork seals, what oil for stock springs/light rider? Wait so the air gap should be 177mm? If the air gap should be 177mm then how is 100mm low? Wouldn't that be high? The mechanic I dropped is off to hasn't started it yet. I don't have the tools to work on the bike and I…

- 94 VFR replacing leaking fork seals, what oil for stock springs/light rider? Well I have no idea how old the fork oil is on this bike, it has 60k miles so who knows haha. The SS7 seems to be about the same as the HP5 so looks like I'm on the right track. ATF? I'm assuming an atf like syn redline…
- 94 VFR replacing leaking fork seals, what oil for stock springs/light rider? Just purchased a 94 VFR. Good condition but high miles (105k km, or 60k miles roughly) Fork seals are leaking so bad the oil is dripping on my brakes and the front dives so easily. I talked with Jamie and I will be…
