Ah, got it 👍 Looking at the other picture I thought the front edge on the lower fairing was also a bit tilted backwards. I am sure it is going to look nice.

Looks like the angle of the front of the black panel of the seatcover doesn' t match the angle of the black panel of the rear lower side fairing. I guess this is close to what you are aiming for?

3Rd Gen Vfr750F Ninja Zx14R Rear Shock Swap
V4 Rosso replied to Nifty7Fifty's topic in Third and Fourth Generation VFR's
Yes, I wouldn' t dare to compress the spring using ratchet straps. Fortunately I have access to a hydraulic spring compressor similar to this one:- 289 replies

3Rd Gen Vfr750F Ninja Zx14R Rear Shock Swap
V4 Rosso replied to Nifty7Fifty's topic in Third and Fourth Generation VFR's
Maybe this is helpfull. After compressing the spring, the bits that need to be removed differ from one shock to the other but it is more or less the same principle.- 289 replies

Looking good! Enjoy it.

Squished them and they take their original shape again. Pretty good stuff made by Knox Armour with a hard outer shell and dense foam inner padding

https://www.hqts.com/differences-between-ce-conformite-europeenne-and-ce-china-export/ I just checked some 20 y.o. jackets I have lying around and the pad feel like new. Although I am pretty sure they will not be as impact absorbing as when new.

So, did the trade gain you a lot of space? 😁 I would go with the Avon you have. And if you keep the bike for a little longer than usual 😉, get a new pair of whatever you prefer.

As long as the VIN and engine# match I don' t think there will be any problem.

Lifting front wheel without center stand
V4 Rosso replied to Yahya's topic in Seventh Generation VFR's
With this Abba stand you will be able to not only lift both wheels of the ground but also remove the whole front end for instance when you need to replace head bearings. -
The master cylinder I.D. is 15,9mm.

I only remove the radiator when performing a valve clearance check. It' s most #1 coil that fails because for some reason that one gets flooded sometimes.
-
For replacing a coil you don' t need to remove the radiator, just lower it a bit.
-
So this was bike #50 or will that be the next one?

You need to get yourself a red leather motorcycle jacket and a pair of red riding boots 😁

Right brake disc gets hotter than the left one
V4 Rosso replied to M0rf3M's topic in Eighth Generation VFR's
It' s been a while since I had a VTEC, but isn' t this because of DCBS? When applying front brake only the right caliper has 3 active pistons and the left only two. -
Not all have twin low beams as shown in the schematic below of the 4th gen for a couple of markets (most of europe) @weerab: The conversion can be as simple as adding a third prong to the right headlight connector splicing into the left connector. But make sure the current low beam is switched using a relay and not directly from the headlight switch (as shown in the above schematic).

Chain slack adjustment - side stand or main stand
V4 Rosso replied to suawek's topic in Eighth Generation VFR's
I agree with VFR78: remove the bearing holder and clean up the teeth. Also a great opportunity to repack the bearings with new grease.
