Guest Phil900 Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Hi everybody, I'm new to bikes, vfr's and VFRD... Seems like a great place here... I rode my new bike for the first time this past satursday, it's a blue 2001. I like it very much but I want to adjust the suspension to sportiest possible way without changing anything. Is there someone who has a guide or something like that to help me doing it myself ? Another question : I like the sound of the bike very much but there's a little sound that bugs me. Something like a clac-clac or tac-tac that follow the engine sound. The bike has 32k km and valves never been adjusted. Is that sound normal or due to valve adjustment ? Is there a problem to use it like that if the sound is the valves in waiting to adjustment in two weeks ? Thanks a lot Philippe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer GP Paul Posted April 9, 2008 Member Contributer Share Posted April 9, 2008 Just wait. I'll bet in a few minutes one of the VFRocket scientists will post an extensive guide for you. Me, I just throw money at it! Also try the Search function for Sag and other adjustments. They depend on weight, height, riding style, tires, etc., etc., etc. Oh yeah, don't let 'em tell you that red bikes handle better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
