Oh the woes of motorcycling
So, my Honda VFR750F (for those who don't know what I ride) died about a month back. It keeps blowing the main fuse to the entire wire harness. My bike was stolen years back and the thieves hotwired it. The plug that connects the battery to the wire harness is badly melted in places and I suspect that is why it's melted. So I had decided to

Now that I'm getting the VFR on the road I'll be able to put a little more time and trouble into the Radian to make it nicer than the original plan, which was to get it going enough to ride it every day. I just pulled the carbs off (PITA, but you know this) and am in the process of putting them back on in an attempt to figure out why it stalls when I rev the motor. It's very possible that it's a fuel flow problem, so I'll be calling Derek from the Radian list for a new one and see where it goes from there.
I'm probably going to sell the forks and rear hub off my VFR to finance a used R6 or a new XB9R. If that is all I need to get one then I'll keep the Radian and restore it fully. If not I may have to sell it. I like the idea of having two bikes "just in case" but financial reality will rear it's head every once and awhile. I've never done a restoration so this will be my first, so I'm kind of hoping I can get away with just parting out the VFR and keep the Radian.
Thanks for dropping by and giving me those tips I really do appreciate it.
