  1. So i guess my sweet 1998 vfr will be left out of the pcv experiment due to the lack of o2 sensors?

    No it won't be left out of the experiement. I've installed a PCV on my 98 with great results. I have the Autotune, map by gear, and temp sensors installed and working great. All I did was drill a hole for the Bosch unit and had a bung welded. Works great.

    where did you weld the plug ?

  2. Have power commander on the my 1998 for over 3 yrs now. Just noticed the displays on the PC is not at 100% when the throttle is open 100%

    the Throttle is calibrated. The Software shows 100% but the PCIII shows < 100%. Any clues ?

  3. How can you tell if your lines are free of air bubbles?

    I just change my brake and clutch fluid for the first time. After a happy dance of finally doing it myself someone has now got me all paranoid by saying "if an air bubble crept up in there you wont have any brakes".

    I took the bike out right after changing the fluid and the brakes were nice and smooth all the way through. I then practiced some emergency braking and all seems well (slightly better actually).

    Can air bubbles show themselves over time or would you be able to notice them right away? Is there any way to ensure the lines are free of air bubbles?

    spongy brake lever/pedal, dragging of brakes, lever/pedal going all the way and very less response on the brakes - are first sign of air in the system.

  4. by SS ones ...a little bit more and they dont rust.

    Bought the SS for both the Duc and the VFR. I did have to wait a little longer to get them from wiremybike, but they arrived on Monday so hopefully I'll be able to install them soon. They'll be going on when I swap out my clutch/brake lines with SS lines.

    Great ...i just swapped my hoses to Goodrdige ...they do look great. Always had the speedbleeders just upgraded them to SS also. end result great brakes!! Clutch SS is still pending

  5. With the ST1100 cables I am stuck because the bracket that holds the threaded ends in place is too far. I took it to my fathers machine shop and brought it forward about an inch, but I haven't had a chance to install yet because of work. For the choke you can try removing the airbox and rerouting the cable directly to the left handle bar on top of where the throttle cables run through to goto the right hand side. I tested this from lock to lock with my spiegler kit and it does not bind.

    you need to move the lock nut ahead to get more slack
