  1. i cant for the life of me find any bleed valve on the opposite battery side like the pictures have, found the junction box under the shroud but nothings on it.. 2011 vfr800 vtec.
  2. just followed this guide on my 2011 vfr800 with only 40,000km it had started to rattle after a low side, then a 6 month sitting in the garage while my bones re grew. (insurance did a full new set of fairings and panniers and anything else with a scratch on it and i did an oil change before the first ride) i found it surprisingly easy, as i was also doing a coolant change too, i just did it when the coolant was drained out of it. interesting i was sure it was going to be a noisy front one, so i did that first, starrted it up, rattle little quieter but still their, so i did the back one, which i found the hardest as it leaks oil and the key wouldn't stay in so i had to hold it in place while i undid it. started it up, very very quiet. like a new bike again. except with the full motard decat system and debaffled stain tunes.
  3. i ended up taking the forks off today and doing the service the traditional way, and yes indeed the oil lock piece is the problem, i think it would be next to impossible to get it to all line up on the bike.
  4. is that 110mm air gap with damper in and springs out btw?
  5. just tried this, and it wont go back together, screw wont go into the bottom, like its not feeling any thread, i looked into the tubes, and can see the oil seal peice at the bottom and i dont think they are slotting together. im going to try and take the forks off today like the conventional way and try to get it back together. Annoying since i commute daily to work, and have a wife who hates me being in the garage and i told her it only takes 30 minutes.
