If it’s high, don’t worry if it’s a Honda and been serviced. Pretty much unbreakable engines
Very true especially the VFR with cam gear drive, no long cam chain thrashing around. Lots of the late model VFR750’s around at sub £2k in decent condition. These bikes have got to start increasing in value, an undervalued classic for sure.

It’s a well known fact in here but my VFR800 has over 170k innit and I’ve been everywhere on it. The trumpets a great bike, so is the XJ albeit dated now. So many variables. I can’t fault my VFR as it’s so versatile, I wouldn’t know what to replace it with, …….except another one.
Also as an add I’ve an 09 plate one for sale in dark graphite grey with a few bits n bobs on it should you decide to go that route but don’t want to spend a fortune. Go ride some bikes, you’ll soon know what you like and what fits you.

Good progress Dave, that’s bloody cheap for laced rims including the spokes in SS. In fact a veritable bargain Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Soz bout that, hurriedly typing whilst dashing about Soon as I know I’ll let you know, not sure yet but he’s doing one in brass first to see if it’s doable rather than casting. Not sure if it’s economical or not but I’ve got one lurking somewhere if you need one, I’ll have a look later as in the shed of dreams putting the thermostat on the VFR.

combination of that so the fans working now and the thermostat was stuck open so ordered a new one today, pig to get to as its under the injector bank so had to dig deep but in a bowl of warm water, no movement............think I got it. Cheers though Bryan, as ever, you need to remove everything to get to the bit thats shagged

Already on the list Bryan and you’re completely right on the fault, same on the VFR’s.
Apparently is a common fault across a heap of manufacturers, especially the Suzuki’s and Aprilia’s. Thanks for the heads up tjough pal.
