fuel/electrical problem

My 03 VFR800 is making a funny buzzing noise sometimes when I turn it on. And it stalled twice while riding on the highway. Does anyone know where the fuel shutoff relay is on my bike? I think that is what is buzzing.

call a honda shop up and talk to a tech they will probley be glad to tell you where it is or buy a clymere manual on the bike from the dealer ship

do you know if Clymer Manuels are better than Haynes. I have a Haynes and it kinda sucks.

Honestly dude, both the Clymer and the Haynes manuals kinda suck all around...the factory service manuals are by far the absolute best.

If our bikes weren't different, I'd check mine, but I don't have a manual for yours. Good luck though.

Personally I hate clymer and haynes...both don't provide the level of detail I need. They're so general in procedures and lack usefull additional info that the honda manuals provide. Too bad it's not a 90-01 model. I would have gladly given you the honda manuals in pdf.
