My buddy installed a kitchen sink for me and in return I told him I'd go through his non-running VF500F and see if I could get it running. These are the lengths I choose to go to to not have to do housework. I've been pretty occupied with going through my SV650 but figured I was close enough to finishing what I wanted to do that I could strain my pea-size brain with another concurrent project, so we loaded it up a wee bit before getting dumped on with another 8" of snow and brought it over.
He bought the bike non-running, which isn't the greatest idea. I haven't checked valve clearances yet but the biggest thing I wanted to check was whether or not the cams looked pitted or destroyed. And whether or not it looks like we should put any time or money into it. The bike is pretty filthy; however, I'm encouraged by what I saw after pulling the valve covers off tonight. We'll see.
