1984 VF1000FE Rebuild

From personal experience the ignition switch can cause some exciting problems when riding. I fitted a new complete switch from ebay which solved all the probs.

Well, she runs & for a lash-up first start she ran okay, no nasty noises etc :slightly_smiling_face:

When i first tried to run the fuel pump after sitting unused for nearly 15 years it started smoking, then eventually made a popping sound & seemed to be okay.
After doing the carb sync i figured i ought to check the pump & fuel delivery was a dribble so i guess it’s caput so I’m now on with a VFR750 pump install

Test fit of the fairing, I’ve insured it today and I’m hoping to give it a first ride around the block maybe Thursday
