Dropped the engine out of the Mrs VF750C to replace 1st and 6th gear.
Fun (Not)...It's a heavy lump. And the exhaust collector has corroded through in two places, so need to patch that up too. |

Got some handguards for the pointy, but it's too dark to fit them by the time I get home from work, so this will be a tinker project for the future
![]() If anyone has fitted them, are there any issues to look out for? The instructions look pretty straightforward but I'm always wary of things that look easy - they're the jobs that take most of a day instead of 30 minutes ![]() |

No issues, its more placement, and getting them where they won't foul stuff.
They work pretty well for keeping the chill off your fingers too. |

thanks for that, might dragoon some help with getting the placement "just so"
![]() Glad to hear they keep the chill off, that's what I was hoping for - bit cheaper than electric gloves ![]() |

Fitted a new exhaust to my VFR800 and loosened the handlebars ready for the 32mm riders to go on when they arrive. A good day. Bike sounds awesome now!

Out of interest, what type/brand guards are they and where did you buy them. I'm quite tempted to get some but only want something cheap and cheerful...
