  2. Rear Combination Stop/Tail LEDs T20 Wedge 13 Nov 2018 07:25 Thanks for the suggestion OZ... after taking some measurements, they're gonna be too long for the housing 😞
  3. Rear Combination Stop/Tail LEDs T20 Wedge 12 Nov 2018 23:43 Yeah I wondered how I'd go up here with a red light on the plate. You wouldn't happen to know which brand/type you went with?
  4. Rear Combination Stop/Tail LEDs T20 Wedge 12 Nov 2018 22:52 Hi Folks... just wondered if anyone has been able to find LEDs that fit the T20 wedge connector that act as a combination stop tail light... in white? I've trolled ebay and aliexpress and asked many sellers to no avail.…
  5. 5th & 6th VFR 800 Header build 7 Nov 2018 10:24 9 hours ago, Stray If you're close to Barnard Castle , have a standard 5th Gen non-cat header and fancy a FREE Lextek stainless system then please PM me for details. Only one offer available I’m afraid - first suitable…
  6. 5th & 6th VFR 800 Header build 17 Oct 2018 01:39 Ok, got me watching now
  7. After my last chain slack adjustment I'm now at replace chain mark: 10 Jul 2018 22:30 62,000 miles on my last chain. No fancy Scott OP: Keep adjusting till you can't, then buy new.
  8. 5th gen "coil on plug" setup. 26 Jun 2018 22:08 9 hours ago, JZH Now, if they only sold the grommets separately... Surely someone with a 7thGen has or will change their plugs sooner or later... and have a decent set of vernier calipers. adkfinn - The 129700-4800…
  9. 5th gen "coil on plug" setup. 25 Jun 2018 06:01 15 hours ago, yogisays09 Denso part number means like this ? 129700-5370 I searched some time ago and got the same pn. 129700-5370
  10. Rear Brake Locking After Pressing Pedal 21 Mar 2018 07:44 pd1335, 3/20/2018 at 4:18 PM Has any one just tossed the screen out or does the one way valve / check valve have a real function ? As per my post in the article I read - "When the foot lever is actuated, the secondary…
  11. Using H4 headlight bulbs in 1998 - 2001 VFR800: any issues? 21 Mar 2018 03:10 No problems here over the years with several sets. Don't trim / bend the wrong tab and mount them upside down. :goofy:
  12. Rear Brake Locking After Pressing Pedal 26 Feb 2018 05:03 Not sure what happened to my post... but I read this article not long ago -…
  13. Angled Valve Stems 26 Feb 2018 04:54 My advice would be to look for stems that have the fixed seal on the inside of the wheel, which screw on from the outside. That way if anything was to backout, it's a much easier fix.
  14. Rear Brake Locking After Pressing Pedal 16 Feb 2018 06:02 Just giving this a 2018 bump as I've just come across the stuck center rear piston and have traced it back to the SMC. Never knew about the green screen, so many thanks to GleninAus for his comprehensive troubleshoot.…
  15. Most miles on a 5th Gen? 24 Jan 2018 02:20 I can only guess, as the speedo and odometer hasn't been working properly for years... around 170,000kms
  16. 2000 VFR800i throttle and idle nightmare 20 Jan 2018 21:16 Last time I did a valve sync I used a 4 gauge instrument with each vac hose having a small plastic screw valve to eliminate that "bounce". For a 98-99 it's a fairly straight-forward procedure. Someone with a 00-01 could…
  17. Complete brake failure on a VFR800 5Gen 18 Jan 2018 13:17 Scary story but definitely avoidable given the nature of his actions over the course of the day. Lets hope that advertised dealer did a thorough flush before he added that DOT 5 :comp13:
  18. 2000 VFR800i throttle and idle nightmare 18 Jan 2018 05:47 SlimWhitey, 1/15/2018 at 2:17 PM When I got the bike together, I found it unable to properly idle. I had mucked with the starter valves before, and lost the factory settings, so, as a precaution, I disconnected the cold…

  21. Chinese silicone hose sets? 19 Dec 2017 11:11 It looks like that missing hose is in the vtec picture but not in the 5thgen... Seeing as yours is 2001 Duc... maybe it has something to do with the wax unit. I ordered for the 1998 and upon looking at the package I…
  22. Cam reinstall - timing help needed 10 Aug 2017 00:05 Pretty much agree with what has been said, deffo read the manual, especially section 8-28 If all cams have been removed pay particular attention to the rotation of the crank between rear and front installation. 450…
  23. Fuel tank vent 19 Jul 2017 01:38 Yeah the vent tube should rise inside the tank to a high point. As Terry mentioned you could old school with a vented cap and seal off the old vent. Or if you have the patience to remove the tank and pump again... Check…

  34. Changing front sprocket without draining clutch? 12 Nov 2016 09:48 Yep, easily. Remove the slave cylinder separate and wrap a thick rubber band around it to prevent the piston coming out.
  35. Motogp 2016 Season....with Spoilers 25 Oct 2016 04:46 Spent raceday at Siberia. Mostly indoors Friday Saturday. Did get to The Nobbies and Cowes. Marc beat Marc and a deserved win for Cal. Spot on in the post race interview about the changing temps. Some pics... Saw about…

  37. From RC36 to RC51 26 Aug 2016 21:58 Mines started to give me the $hits this morning. Bit of surging and stalling when rolling off the throttle. Starts back up though... eventually got home :mad:

  39. Cooling system improvement ? 2 Aug 2016 08:02 When I finally get around to rebuilding the 98 I was contemplating on doing a mod I've seen on VFR800P bikes in Japan. It involves cutting the fairing to create a larger opening for the radiator. [image:…

  44. 2014 Vfr800F Test Ride 9 May 2014 21:01 Not a smart idea with the clear instrument cover and I'm 50/50 with the split seat option. Thanks for the review and pics.
  45. Strange Surging On My 2001 6 Aug 2013 03:12 Accelerating fast can move stuff on your bike. I'd start with having a look at the battery and terminals. Clean em up, tighten the leads down. I ended up cushioning mine with flat bubble wrap on the base and side.
  46. Yet Another Crispy Connector 17 Apr 2013 21:50 Good to hear a few using the posi-locks. I have been issue-free with mine. Cogswell, I had a new rick's stator and from memory, the wiring was just that bit extra.
  47. Yet Another Crispy Connector 17 Apr 2013 06:08 All my sad times with the VFR has been due to that connector. Bloody thing!! :mad:
