Brief bad fuelling after heavy braking from high speed
Anyone else had this issue with their VTR? It may happen in other instances of heavy braking but the bike only seems to run on one cylinder for around 30secs and I'm certain it's a fuelling problem. Before I start taking everything in bits I also tend to get backfiring back through the carb, sounds ...

I'm going to be replacing the front one with a manual one whilst I wait for the rear one to be delivered. Would a jumped tooth on the cams create a back fire ...

Re: Hello
There's nothing like a little banter! I know this isn't the correct spot but could anyone list the most common faults with the older VTR's (year 2000). The Reg/Rec can be missed off as that has been replaced with a nice new Honda Blackbird item. I'm also aware about the CCTs but unsure if I should b...
