    it's quite a good brake, dutchy, cast-iron ventilated floating rotor with alot of power, kinda heavy though.

    factory manual indicates 16,000 mile service intervals, and if not re-greased they usually need replacement by about 35-40,000 miles........in my experience.

    shamefully and humbly i'm admitting to the entire VFR universe, all 7 continents, and all the ships at sea that i was wrong, wrong, wrong. it does have hollow axles. SORRY ! 😮 i've only been working on VFR's for 29 years but shoulda known better.
  5. squirrelman
    OK, good for squirrels then
  6. squirrelman
    sorry, but i believe that both axles on MY '86 VFR's are not hollow but i may be wrong. 😒
  7. squirrelman
    wha ?? that bloody axle isn't hollow like alot of modern bikes. 😒

    metal is thin on swingarm, not ok for drilling or welding, so find a rear stand with flat plates that go under.

    check the charging system output. consider cleaning and gapping or replacing plugs. signs suggest you may need use a bit of cardboard to block about 1/4 of the radiator. have you checked float levels ? blow out/clean air filter, and check tightness of carb boot clamps. even one leaky float needle or improper float level setting could be causing your symptoms.

    so you're an uber-macho sicko who enjoys killing harmless animals ?😱

    my sad experience with uni filters is that they crumble to dust after just a few years, seems like the filter oil eats 'em up.

    how could it be legal to smoke reefa in canada and illegal to have a non-conforming light switch ?
  14. squirrelman
    look at the O-rings with a 10X magnifier to see the real imperfections. seems like they always leak through the rusty crusty buildup. going through the manual's "idle drop" adjustments might be necessary.......after all and a plug color comparison.
  15. squirrelman
    yes, connect the similar color wires, green to ground. black, look in the wiring diagram.

    how much u wanna spend ? less fire risk with lead/acid and cheaper.
  17. squirrelman

  22. squirrelman
    as far as i know clearance should be checked and set on a cold engine.

    finally sold my '86 700 on cl, owned it for 26 years but need money for a cataract operation. $1300. around here (bflo, ny) very little interest in these old bikes. no problem, i still have 3 more vfr's
  24. squirrelman
    too ugly for my bikes..................😮
  25. squirrelman
    sorry, but i don't know. i would have thought the same, pressed in. on some carbs from other hondas and yamahas, the seat has a similar O-ring but also a screw and tab securing the sear in place, unlike on your RC36. i believe your report is the FIRST on this topic.
