The side stand on my vtr is bent, i have a new one but cant figure out how it comes off , any help would be good
Are you sure it is bent, they are bent normally, and the bike does lean over a bit further than usual.

Biggest problem with Firestorms is the voltage regulator overheats and burns out, remove the seat cowling and check the wiring and unit. Newer ones have a heatsink built into them if you need to replace, checking the pulse generator is easy, measure the resistance between the 3 yellow wires that plug into the reg, they should all be between 0.2 and 0.5 Ohm
SOURCE: where should the temp gauge read on a vtr
normal op temp should hover between 150-180. sounds high huh. it will stay close to 150 most of the time but look out for more than 180

do you have a charol system in the bike because when you take off the tank the little pressure line on the bottom of the tank is suppose to drain into that ,...now if its gone that would possibly explain the leak. but one day i had it pissing out like a race horse and thought it was going to explode..i took the seat off and looked around and found that i had bad o-rings on the main t-fitting going to all the carbs. i just went and bought a salvaged one at a junk dealer popped it in an viola! the bike worked better than it ever did.
