VFR 400 with RVF engine

[brier88]

Sorry if im sounding noobish but is the engine any good or is it crap. Just seen the most beautiful VFR 400 ive ever seen and want to buy it but don't know anything about the RVF engine.

any suggestions?

Basically he means the VFR engine has been swapped for the RVF engine and as I can't give any advice he's asking.

And it is a very lovely looking VFR

The guy says he's had the bike for 7 years and has all the MOT and receipts to prove mileage, etc,

And the bike does look in extremely tip top condition. Fairings look brand new. Very lovely indeed. I wouldn't mind riding it

the rvf has the exact same engine but has larger carbs,
chances are he is just using the original carbs any way.

But it needs to be run in

And the sprockets need wearing in so you have to wheelie it. Seriously.

But I want to get it done right for you when you actually get on the bike. It has to be ready. Otherwise you will ruin it.

From what i can remember the carbs on the rvf are smaller, gives an improvement in midrange at the expense of a tiny amount of peak power.
If your not already a member head over to www.400greybike.co.uk for alot of useful info and tips.
about to spend another couple of grand on mine over winter

Give me til the end of december to finish it and i'll stick up proper pics.

ye am planning on keepin the FZR, theres no point selling it cos no one will offer me the right money. they dont sell well, not many parts around either. so i'd rather keep it, and fix it and say well i got this when i was 17 and look at it.
dunno if the missus will let me keep mine in the livin room tho lol
