I'm new to this website, although I've been reading for a little while now to learn about the F2 more.

I bought her two months ago. Clean title and 19k miles. Came with the stock pipe, mirrors, cluster, fairing stay bracket, rear tail section, headlight, fender, etc...but she needed some work:

- Carb cleaning
- Front fork seals
- Tires
- Oil/fluids change
- Clutch/brake levers & bar ends
- Fairings
- Paint
- Battery
- Oil/plugs/fluid change
- Chain and sprocket
- Brake pads

But the price was right so it's all good!

I am also picked up the following parts for cheap :thumbup:



Got her back from the shop last week:



All was well, except we found a fuel leak right here:



Did a little DIY paintjob (no pics of all fairings on the bike yet):




P.S.: I already bought an Alpinestars TZ-1 jacket, Alpinestars S-Moto Octanegloves and a HJC CL-15 helmet.I'll be taking the MSF before I start riding the bike regularly.

My current project for the last 7 years has been a Honda as well (and it's probably quicker than my F2!):


I'm simply hoping to get this thing restored to stock, reliable condition. It should be completely finished this weekend!

 

Welcome to the forum! Looks like everything is coming along nicely. Nice coupe too...What kinda goodies ya' got in there?

Whats that honda? a turbo d series? Once you get your f2 running in tip top condition that honda better be running low 12's high 11's to keep up

 

Thats a turbo Bseries civic. It should be able to run those numbers on the right gas/tune.

 

Is that b16 or gsr? looks like my bubbies civic cept he has the stock si wheels on it. fastest car ive ever riden in.

 

It's a turbo B18C5 motor, out of my buddy's 1998 Integra Type-R. Matching LSD tranny and all...too bad I cracked a sleeve back in September!



I'm throwing together a simple stock LS/VTEC turbo setup with my ITR head & ITR LSD tranny. It should put down around 350whp and run a mid-high 11-second quarter mile on slicks.

Meanwhile, the F2 will remain BONE STOCK (save for the K&N filter and RK Quick Acceleration chain & sprocket).

Question: What is the recommended part number for replacement NGK spark plugs? I want whatever's a stock OEM replacement.

Also, how hard is it to get another key? I only have the original one.

 

you can look up the spark plug number at ngksparkplugs.com and click on part-finder in the upper right hand corner. Or you can just not even bother and I'll tell you, haha.

CR9EH-9 is the standard plug and CR9EHIX-9 is the iridium plug

I'm thinking the only way to get another key is through the dealership unless you can take it to a place that does key cutting and find the right sized blank, which I don't think is too likely.
With my Honda fourwheeler there is a number stamped into the side of the key. From what I'm told I could just tell the dealership that stamped number and they could order me a new key because there's only like 8 different keys for the ignition.

 

She's almost done! I just need to paint the tank black, flush the coolant and install my frame sliders.

 

Looks like youve come far man. Congrats! I have the octane gloves and love em!

 

I bought 2 replacement keys off ebay for like $5 and the brought them to get cut, it sucks only having one key. By the way, Nice work.
