Thanks for all that info. I have to go back and re-read my manual. I am suddenly completely unaware of what is going on as I thought I knew and had probably re-read. I thought I had a screamer, but ohh jeeze. Knowledge never killed anyone, it just makes it hard to do homework when there are other, more interesting, things to learn about.

Well, actually it was a piece-of-crap voltmeter issue. I connected the leads together and registered 30 ohms. I just finished and started the bike, but I did not ride it. It sits at 15.0 at just above idle (~1300 rpm), but if I rev it, it does not fluctuate much. The real test will be the riding test. I hit 16V between Rolla and KC yesterday, and that scared me. I also had some heat damage to the 30 amp fuse holder. It does not seem fatal at this point, though.

I'm pretty sure that the 83-85 VFs, the VF1000Rs, the RC-30, and the RC-45 are the only ones that use the "big-bang" firing order. The difference is generally called the 180 vs 360 degree crank. I couldn't tell you which is which, but the modern VFR has the one that is not as effective, but has a more V-8 like rumble. That rumble is the exact reason that it is used, afaik. Yamaha put it in the V-Max and people raved about the sound, Honda jumped ship and the VFR has been steadily gone down-hill since. :rolleyes: The sound on my bike is less VFR like and kind of droaney. I think it's a sexy combination of and inline and a V with a torque curve that is boring to look at.

How effective is that magnet? Do you feel like it must be pulling most of the metal out?

Now that's a clean 20 year old bike. :wheel: It's clean for one year old :thumbsup: -
Holy crap. I once bought a full set of bathroom stuff and kitchen stuff. My roomates at the time stole it all when they moved out about a month before me. No one will steal my pink soap dispenser. :thumbsup: Besides it came with the house. Best price ever. You should see the drapes. If they weren't doing such a good job blocking the sun, I would have thrown them away long ago. I have a touchscreen LCD remote, one heack of a surround sound system, and crap money leftover for the frilly stuff in life. I like it that way.
