Hi everyone. My 2005 VTR1000F has no spark. Also the HISS light stays on all the time, even when the bike is being cranked over (is this normal) or should it go out after a few second once the key is turned on. I have 2 HISS keys and they both do the same thing. HISS light still flashes when key is ...

Thanks for the comments, Sounds a little to loud to me, May have to make up some removable baffles before Rego time??

What a huge amount of work!!!

Have finally just got it to the finished stage. :D http://s1062.photobucket.com/user/brinz2/media/9-13022_zpseb8ad09b.jpg.html?sort=3&o=3 http://s1062.photobucket.com/user/brinz2/media/9-13024_zps34f8f7ef.jpg.html?sort=3&o=2 http://s1062.photobucket.com/user/brinz2/media/9-13025_zps0cc0e54f....

Thanks Carl for all the information, Converted mine the manual today. Your write up made it easy!!

Hi everyone, one of my VTR's is giving me the run around at the moment, Was running great in the past but is now very very hard to start and only seems to be running on one cyclinder. Then looses spark completely :thumbdown: . I was thinking maybe the pick up coil, stand switch, or a dud cdi?? :conf...

Thanks, will load some more pic's soon, Nearly finished now, Just have to get the motor running right before the final fit up.

It is a bit of a major to service air filter and rear plug for that matter, Yes all the fairing/bars have to be removed, I've been painting the pink bits and will load some more pic's when I am happy with them. http://s1062.photobucket.com/user/brinz2/media/B2004_zpscb65fbba.jpg.html http://s1062.ph...

Have just started work on it, Will try and load some new pic's soon.

Have finally started the #2 bike, Will make this one Black and Yellow?? Still have to sort exhaust and cooling. Pic's show it at the 50 hour stage. http://s1062.beta.photobucket.com/user/brinz2/media/brittan2015.jpg.html?sort=3&o=0#/user/brinz2/media/Brittan2005.jpg.html?sort=3&o=1&_suid...

Have started Brittan #2.
Will post some pic's soon.

What is the highest mileage VTR out there? Ive seen one at 117,000 kms but there must be higer mileage ones than that?

(I just sold my old Black 98 model VTR last week with a gen 3650 kms on the clock!)

You won't want to get it dirty, looks great!!
