My 1995 VFR750 won't start!! Help!
4thGenVFR750F posted a topic in Third and Fourth Generation VFR's
Hello All, I just bought my first motorcycle and I am having an issue. It's a 1995 Honda VFR750F. I have been riding it for about a week no more then 30 minutes at a time around town. I just took it out to some country roads and the highway for little over an hour. I stopped to pick up a pack of smokes before I went home. I got on tried starting it and the lights dimmed and the starter barely turned. So I had to push start it to get it going. What could this possibly be? Also, the battery is about 1 ½ old. The previous owner bought new and rode the bike once then it sat for a year. So I don't believe it be bad already. Thanks for the help.

With Ducati about to release a high-end V4 super-sports machine, is Honda with so much history with the V4 engine caught napping? So who is copying whom? Honda was accused of copying Ducati in the late 1990s producing the VTR series of bikes (sadly missed in their lineup today) and now that Ducati is producing a V4 does this vindicate Honda's belief of the perfect balanced bike? So why is Ducati abandoning is trademark 90 degree V-Twin engine? Has the Vee-Twin reached the economic limits of horsepower? Is the physical size of the engine now impeding handling? Are they losing their Vee-Twin capacity allowance in racing? Or are they getting a runaway problem with emissions? Your thoughts...?

I'm going to be welding up my own exhaust for the VFR, and am trying to make it work as well as possible. My idea is to have each cylinder bank have it's own system, but the unusual firing sequence is throwing me off. I'm trying to mimic the looks of the Honda MotoGP system. It makes sense to me to have the exhaust pulses spaced evenly to provide the best flow, but the setup doesn't allow that. How should I arrange my headers to optimize this? It looks to me like this engine runs like a pair of 270 degree parallel twins. Looking around at the new FZ-07 has unequal length headers. Is this the solution to this issue? Does it really even matter? EDIT: I think I've misled you guys with what my goal is to do. I do not want a single exhaust exit. I do not want the two cylinder banks to ever merge if they don't have to. I want my rear cylinders to exit through the tail, and the fronts to exit behind the footpegs.

Honda VFR 750 RC36- Extremely high fuel consumption?
Guest posted a topic in Third and Fourth Generation VFR's
Hello once again ! I will try to put this as short as possible. Thank you for your patience =D. So I recently bought a Honda VFR 750 RC36 1990.. The bikes look is modified (I am finishing what PO started)I think the only related to my"problem" in this could be the 190 rear tire. The engine is as far as I know complete stock (except the wings slip on). So here is the thing, the bike starts from the first crank,even if it sits for month, no choke needed.Works like the perfectly healthy bike (i noticed a little knock sound while idleing,but I think it is because of too low idle (it is about 800rpm, even lower when hot) or maybe the clutch bearing (since the sound almost completly go away when I engage the clutch). If you rev it a little in neutral the throttle reaction is amazing and fast..There is a issue with temp. gauge.. The gauge never goes up past 1/4 no matter how long the ride is,and it is obvious that the bike is warm (vent/cooler starts while waiting on the traffic lights,huge amounts of hot air coming from a bike, so I am not suspecting a thermostat) While riding: 2 things I noticed: 1st there are no quiet detonations/backfireing like on "normal bikes with slip on" but while engine braking there pops a LOOOUUUDDD BOOOOMM.. The loudest I heard on the street bike ( and I had a few "poper bikes"). If I accelerate little more aggressively and then let off the throttle the pop would be even louder. 2nd. I was riding it like a granny all the time so I decided to give it a little speed. So I opened the full throttle in 1st, the bike jumped to 10 000rpm and kinda stoped there , shifted it to 2nd opened full throttle bike jumped again very fast to 10 000rpm and just stoped there.. No more power producing from there, it didnt sound like the limiter, it just stand there powerless and couldnt pass that 10 000rpm.. And now the problem: While riding it granny style , low rpms etc for entire gas tank. the best I could get is about 22MPG , or about 60 miles per tank ( while gauge got to red reserve mark i tanked it to full, and got 60 miles to that same gauge position). While looking at the consumption experience from my other bikes and from other vfr owners this is brutal.. And gas is very expensive here.. The bike is probably running rich ,but there are no hard gas smells or something. So as this is my first vfr, does this bikes have some known issues (except R/R) to be related with consumption , or should just classic carb detail clean, new air and fuel filter , carb sync, spark plugs do the trick? Thank you! -
