    Tapping/clicking on deceleration 01 Honda VFR800

    Thanks a lot for the help guys. Weather finally improved and I had a chance to take a look at the bike. Chain was loose. I tightened it up, lubed it up, and is much better. Clicking and surging is gone. However, it seems I have reached my "limit" in terms of adjustment, so I'm guessing its...

    Tapping/clicking on deceleration 01 Honda VFR800

    Funny you guys mention the chain. I had some issues last year with the chain being loose, so I tightened it up. But immediately afterwards I was having surging issues, so I backed it off a bit. It rides well with the exception of the clicking. It is not rpm-dependent but it is speed dependent.

    Tapping/clicking on deceleration 01 Honda VFR800

    Hello all, I have a problem which started fairly infrequently but has started to occur more and more often. Whenever I slow down quickly (not panic stop but stopping for a traffic light for example) I get a "tapping" sound that clicks maybe a dozen times while slowing from like 10km/h to 0...

    Brokers around guelph?

    I was paying 600/yr on a 89 Ninja250, I was 27 though. I don't think statefarm rates change much as you get older though, just the bigger the bike the more it costs. I was with Harry Kihs in on Gordon St.

    First crash for me as well :( Watch the speed bumps at the forks of the credit guys!

    You have a point. I know I screwed up. You don't see me cussing out the truck driver do you? But there is no point telling other riders to watch out from following too close, that should be second nature. I made a mistake, and am paying for it, both pain and financially. But $#@!# happens...

    First crash for me as well :( Watch the speed bumps at the forks of the credit guys!

    Following a pickup truck towing a landscape type smaller trailer, on the forks of the credit road heading toward Belfountain, bottom of the hill. I was following at a safe distance, not going very fast (maybe 40/50ish), and the truck decides to come to a DEAD STOP at the speed bump. I lock up...

    Recently purchased bike covered by existing policy?

    Thanks for the responses guys. I was talking riding the bike, not trailering it. I have read the section of the insurance act and understand it. I just wasn't sure if it was strictly automobiles or bikes as well, because the act refers to 'automobile'. I only have liability on my current...

    Recently purchased bike covered by existing policy?

    I have bought and sold many cars over the years and I know that as part of the 'Ontario Vehicle Insurance Act' there is a little-known section that extends an existing insurance policy on to a 'newly aquired' car. Basically, if you had a policy on a Toyota Corolla, and went out and bought...

    Carb problems 1989 Ninja 250 - anyone willing to come by to help?

    Thanks for the advice everyone. The bike was running and riding 100% about a month ago. One morning the bike had a tough time starting, and it would barely idle after several tries to get it started. The throttle and choke had little effect on the idle speed. After letting the bike get up to...
