    check the headers for heat after its run 30 seconds to find non-firing cylinders.

    common on many vfrs

    clean and lube or risk this

    check that the brake mc isnt too full, should have air space above the fluid.

    not the cdi getting hot, its a pulse generator
  11. squirrelman
    ^^^^^ yes, check charging volts at idle and at 5000, less than about 13.5v is bad and probably needs r/r replacement. a bike running fine then quitting 15 or so minutes into a ride is often a sign of a pulse generator that quits when it heats up. and when it cools down runs fine ?? another sign of pulse gen failure.

    im a carb rebuilderwith 33 years of VF/VFR experience and offer prices lower than any other you can find. VF, VFR, HAWK, I-4s, anything. 716 836-0154 jerry if rings shrink when dry during storage, rust flakes may get in and prevent sealing

    i remember pulling a flywheel/rotor by putting pennies under the bolt and tightening. with more and more pennies, the rotor walks itself off.

    mice, squirrels or rats.

    so did the alarming clatter start after it overheated ? its no big deal to fit a new rad.

    in the 70's guys with sportscars here, mostly english and italian, could back up to the gates of the private pilot section of the airport, and the ground ops would fill our fuel tanks with potent avgas.

    fuel pump has a relay that often fails and can be hot-wired to bypass it, better than running w/o pump.

    i dont use the choke lever to set my warmup idle speed; instead i adjust the idle setting screw to boost cold fast idle, then dial it back when warm. at 85 degrees, no choke should be necessary for starting, so its clear youre using it to boost cold idle speed.
  25. squirrelman
    what size is the rear tire ?
