Kawasaki VN800 Classic - Walk Around, Talk and Start Up

Know your bags are on backwards lol

[@CountryHouseGent]

+alexis gomez Yes but due to the way they're made, the other way round they touched the exhaust and interfered with the passenger footrests.

[@wwekidder123]

Awesome bikes just picked up a no one that was sitting for 2 years with bad gas in it rebuild the carburetor runs like a champ

[@CountryHouseGent]

Sounds like a bargain? Yep, they are solid bikes. Keep them lubed and they'll go on and on. Enjoy :)

@@CountryHouseGent mines got 38,000 miles sat for 4 years runs almost like new

[@mr.matiss]

That is nice seat mod. I'd like to see some DIY of it.

[@Deutschlanderneuerer]

Do you know the brand of the 'chrome covers' that you're pointing at on 11:40 and that are on both sides, each the same looking and having a bit of a square form. I heard that they're covering the battery. What's the brands name or being more specific where can you buy those ?

[@CountryHouseGent]

I believe they are the standard chrome covers from the VN800 A.

[@Deutschlanderneuerer]

@@CountryHouseGent Abi, they aren‘t. I did own one that partikular bike myself, but those covers wäre different. Mostly plain black.

[@andrewdonnelly9961]

Is the brake / tail light standard? Because all the ones iv seen don't have that nice style tail light you have

[@CountryHouseGent]

Hi Andrew. To be honest, I don't know. That's the light it came with, sorry. Agreed it has a nice vintage look.

when it stalls when cold motor at 15000miles when throttle up, then what should be the issue. the bike i want to buy does it and needs allot of shoke and high idle .

[@CountryHouseGent]

+stefaan adriansens Hi Stefaan. On a bike that age, it could be many things. Could be something as simple as old petrol. Or it could be that the carb needs a good clean or is worn out, or needs a new air filter and spark plug. Could be a perished vacuum hose or inlet manifold leak. Could be a fault in the ignition system, faulty coil or broken down HT lead. Worst of all could be a leaking head gasket. If the asking price is a bargain, it might be a good idea to get a mechanic to take a look at it before handing over any money. Does the bike look well looked after or neglected. If neglected, chances are the rest of the bike will require work.

[@Alexgomez411]

stefaan adriansens if you crack the throttle and it pops turns off it's usually the accelerator pump people like to mess with it to make it accelerate in thier mind faster.....I had to fix mine

[@wmoto3771]

It's good bike.

[@CountryHouseGent]

Yes the VN800 range are very reliable and solid bikes. This particular one was very nicely sorted. ☺

[@wmoto3771]

@@CountryHouseGent I want to buy such a bike. Some of my friends do not like the chain drive, but for me this is not a drawback.

[@JohnJohn-kv5nk]

[@JohnJohn-kv5nk]

[@wwekidder123]

saddle bags on backwards

[@CountryHouseGent]

Yes

[@CountryHouseGent]

If they were fitted the other way round, they fowled the pillion foot rests.

[@wwekidder123]

Oh cool yeah whatever it takes to stay on the road just didn't know if you were aware ride safe

[@gimmieliberty6514]

When I want to check out a bike I don't want to see an index finger wiggling about,it's rude to point

[@CountryHouseGent]

Ha, that's so funny. 😁
