I'm not trying to rain on VFR80025th's parade, but since we're talking printing off VFR history stuff this seemed a good place. I'm not sure how many visit the other site, but a while ago I posted a vectorized version of the 5th gen engine cutaway illustration from the Honda service manual. Vector files are great because they can be scaled to any size without loss in quality, something normal raster images can't do. I later followed this by colorizing the cam gear train. The attached .zip files will be the vector file and high resolution images for the cam gear train so don't bother with the low quality images inserted into this post. vfr - black - red.zip vfr - white -red.zip VectorFR.zip

HI, I thought some might like this sml article I found in Cycle World Archives. Enjoy.

THe VF400FII fairing and the 86 tail are a great match, I love it. I also agree with Captain, the twin headlight RC fairing is not right.

I'm kinda diggin the VF500F2 front fairings. Seems to "fit" decent. I hate the fitment of white NC/RC fairing. The angle is TERRIBLE and is what I make fun of when people try to use them on the wrong bikes. The rear angles of the cowls need to match the angle of the frame or they look very "off". Just like the plane that the screen mounts to... needs to be some what close the overall angle of the bike/tank. Plus the angle of the headlights... are we illuminating the tree tops? Those are made for below-the-triples clip ons.

Mine has all the balls, but those are about 5mm-ish big......

I only have an 86 but on mine the throw-out bearing on the clutch has about that size bearing balls.

FYI, the bottom disc with the bypass holes is held in place with just a side-mount external retaining ring. If the new T-stat you're getting is assembled the same, I don't see why you couldn't just swap the disc over from the outgoing OEM t-stat. Should only take a minute and you wouldn't have to drill anything. That wouldn't do anything for top plate fitment, but it would be one less thing you have to modify. An important measurement I didn't give prior is from bottom of top flange to bottom of bypass disc. That appears to be 37mm

No riding today, maybe Sunday

No riding this month or next for that matter 😬
