Honda RVF400 Riders

[taz3]

Not abt rarity of parts but if you are complaining abt the wear & tear of RVFs, think abt the CBR. How many well-conditioned CBRs are there ard...

 

No doubt CBR is a powerful bike, even more than the RVF, especially the legendary L. But my opinion is that RVF got more usable power range over CBR. Most imptly, RVF has the handling and flickability that's definitely incomparable in its class...

 

yeah,i never win a L model before even for pick up and top end.i like rvf because of its design and handling.

dats y stock is always the best. trust the Honda engineers.

 

 

I trust the Honda engineers but not the Japanese bhp restriction regulation... hahaha... why waste the bike's full potential?

the trade-off for full potential is, sadly, lifespan...

 

if they didnt make engine last that long ever since they started making automobiles, i guess nobody will be posting here saying they trust honda engineers...

Is that your current bike in your avatar?

 

If so, I'd suggest you pick (and spend on) an RVF based on its road-worthiness traits first.

 

Performance and modding comes later when you're pretty much settled down on the RVF, learning how to ride it, maybe throw in 1 or 2 tricks to it, etc... That's the time when you're pretty much hungry for more raw power despite its known restrictions, if any.

 

That's my advice for new 2A riders.

RVF's cams are gear driven. No timing chain.

Is your chain loose in the 1st place?

 

Sound is from under tank or from crankcase there? Left, right or both side? Need to be more specific

[3chUn]

my bike "SOMETIMES" after a long ride or when the bike is "WARN UP" (HOT)

have a metal ringing sound.. SAD!!!

coming out from below the oil tank...

 

when open oil the sound become faster..

only can be heard when low rev..

That one ok. Most prob is due to valve clearance. The usual case is before warm up then can hear, after that the sound will go away. Strange, your one opposite!
