The VFR750R (RC30), a high-performance super sport model released in limited quantities in 1987.
Recently, Honda has launched a refresh plan, making it a machine you can continue to love.
In a way—or really, truly—it’s enviable. (If the budget allowed…)
Here’s Dunlop’s new product Roadsmart 4.
The RC30 has front 3.00-17 and rear 5.5-18—pretty niche wheel sizes.
We confirmed the front is OK too, so let’s go!
It’s something you don’t need to know, but… there’s a fact I’ve been dying to learn recently.
Hmm, I see.
It looks overly elaborate, but this metal bar clamp is really great for tire changes. I wish I’d known about it sooner.
For bikes, I think buying 150 and 300 sizes covers most situations.
Let’s check runout and balance, then assemble.
I replaced the air valve TR412.
These kinds of items are sold at Battle Factory, so check them out.
I bought mine ages ago, though…
I replaced the coolant. The cap can be reused.
The issue of topping off without removing the upper cowl.
This is Motion Pro’s PRO FUNNEL. I don’t use it often, but it comes in handy when the reservoir tank is out of reach.
• Tip can be removed (great storage)
• The tip’s curve is just right
• Magnetic on the opposite side of the valve (sticks to the toolbox!)
• Valve-type so you can adjust flow.
For your reference!
I replaced the fluid with Colden Cruiser DOT4.
After getting the inspection, we’re done.
