  1. I'm selling the left and right hand mirrors from my 94 VFR . Both mirrors are in good to excellent shape, no cracks, glass side is excellent, light scratches on the back side, not very visable though. $50 for both, buyer pays shipping cost. Will not ship outside of US.
  2. Does anyone have a part number for the thermostat fan switch that comes on closer to 85c (185f)?. The switch on my bike closes at 92c (198f). I'd like the fan to come on a bit sooner.
  3. Hi Jim, I've used ColorRite paint twice, once to repaint my 1975 CB125, original color Riviera Blue, came out beautiful!, the second time to repaint one of the side bags on my Wineberry Red ST1100, came out pretty good. Both paint job were done by a professional body shop painter. In the case of the ST, the paint was a few shades darker on the side bag than the rest of the bike. I should have given the painter another painted panel or part of the bike to color match to, he could have matched it better, my bad. There's a guy that lives near me that does some very impressive paint work on bikes, I've seen his work a few times. If your still thinking about fixing up that spot on the tank, I could give him a call for you.
  4. Was having some problems with my charging system also. Replaced the stator, it had signs of over heating, the connector between the REG/REC and stator was discolored, replaced the REG/REC with one from RICK'S Electric, it's a MOSFET one, works much cooler than the OEM unit from Honda. Did this about 12 years ago and have never had to touch it since.
  5. Another great poster for the shop! I took the pdf file VFR History poster to STAPLES to have it printed out on a 20x30 high gloss poster grade paper, much thicker stock than normal paper. It came out all right, definitely lose some sharpness at 20x30, especially in the text area, but still a very good poster. The cost was $35USD for one, $31 each if you have two printed.
  6. Very COOL! Thanks to the OP for making this available. I'm gonna take the file to STAPLES to have printed out on high quality poster size paper.
  7. Time to clean out the basement! I have a assortment of 4th Gen (94 VFR750) internal engine parts, all in very good condition that I'm looking to get rid of. I really want them to go to someone who might be in need of these parts for future engine work, or that still has a 4th gen bike. I have a 98 VFR800 now, with the A&A Performance Supercharger..😁 THERMOSTAT ASSY OIL PUMP ASSY 15100-MZ7-000 CLUTCH BASKET ASSY (minus clutch plates) SET OF PISTONS 13101-MY7-010 FRONT CAM GEARS 14410-MT4-000 REAR CAM GEARS 14420-MT4-000
  8. I have a bunch of engine parts, most are internal, from my abandoned 94 engine project that I'm looking to sell at a very reasonable price, would like to know they are going to another VFR rider who can put them to use. All parts are in good condition removed from a working engine with less than 30k on the odometer. Front Cam Gears 14410-MT4-000 $10 REAR CAM GEARS - 14420-MT4-000 $10 OIL PUMP ASSY 15100-MZ7-003 $10 CLUTCH ASSY - NO PART # SEE ATTACHED PIC PISTONS (4) - 13101-MY7-010 $10
  9. Hey Group, I have a 98 VFR800 with the A&A Performance SUpercharger that's been running a bit hot in slow traffic, and to some degree when moving along ( around 30mph) on the street. Gave the cooling system a few good flushes with THERMACOOL cooloing system flush, it's much easier on the seals of older cooling systems. Rinsed out good with water until clean after each treatment, didn't lower the temp problem much. Checked the cooling fan, sure enough it was dead. The cooling switch was working fine. The VFR 19030-MBG-000 cooling fan is no longer available, unless you want to try your luck on a used 24 year old one on eBay. After a little searching I found the cooling fan from 2005-06 from the VTX1800 P/N# 19030-MCH-003 is a perfect fit, the motor and housing are identical, the only difference is the two pin plug on the end. The VTX fan has some other type of connector. Popped the pins out, used my own two pin MOLEX connector and problem solved. The new VTX fan motor set me back $141. Just thought I'd share this with the group here in case anyone else's fan quits on them.
  10. Very interesting post here. First of all I'm very impressed with the support, great job Danno and Grum! Can't wait to find out what the problem is. You guys are doing such a good job helping JRoberts out I didn't want to interrupt...to many cooks in the kitchen you know. JRoberts, are you sure the fuel injectors are good, fuel can pulsed through? If it does come down to replacing the injectors, I have a set of four from my 98 VFR that were recently ultrasonically cleaned and calibrated by MAREN Fuel Injector service that I'll sell very cheap to you. I installed the A&A Performance supercharger back in 2010 I think it was. The stock injectors didn't keep ( exceeded duty cycle) up at high RPM when the boost was on. I ended up using injectors from the CBR1100xx. I might even have the original OEM pressure regulator and fuel pump?? Both of those components had to be swapped out with aftermarket parts to keep up with supercharger but were working perfectly when removed. Hope you find the problem soon. Sounds like you have excellent help already

  15. Hmmm? I would have called Ricks and asked them to explain how a, I assume plastic, zip tie is supposed to withstand the engine heat. With no OEM availability the only person I would buy a stator or Reg/Rec from would be Rick's. I live about a hour drive from his shop so if I did have a problem I could drive it right up there. He really does make quality stuff though, been in business for few decades and has a pretty good reputation over a extended period.
