Instruments now powered up. Need to mount the magnets into the RH front disc bobbins so the sensor can pick up the rotation but its not going to be difficult. My biggest current pain is the oil cooler pipes that are completely shot. I need to find a solution to this that doesn't cost the earth and replaces with new items as every second hand set i have thus seen are understandably little better than the ones i have currently. Sometimes its easy to forget these bikes are approaching 40 years old. Now for a bit of a plug. I've just finished reading Matt Oxley book "Racing Hitler" If you don't know Matt he's a long Standing Motorcyclist Author. Its a great read about the quest for the Motorcycle speed record between the wars

Cheers fellas. Trying to find a replacement wheel. Need one for a trip to NW200 in 4 weeks. BST are a minimum 12weeks lead time & very expensive now, not that they were ever cheap. Will get the tyre off & see to what extent the rim is damaged. 12years old & 33K miles on it so far.

You must be making more power than it was designed for. Glad you found it before it found you.

Infinitely high resistance for the temperature sender = a broken (or disconnected) wire.

Hi All Sharing 1 Lap on below video, as last Saturday I had a G R E A T time with our beloved VFR at AIA Portimão Circuit in Portugal 😈 aka The Roller Coaster 😈 This is why I love so much my VFR, I can through 3 Givi cases and enjoy the road with my wife at snail pace, or I can remove everything and enjoy the track 😍

Thanks guys, and I appreciate the tips along the way. Now to get it registered and insured so I can do a real shakedown run. The weather is warming up and it's time to go riding, and look for the next project! (There is a CBR954RR for sale locally that looks interesting.) Take care, Justin
