- Rear brake use GP Paul, 6/20/2017 at 10:29 PM Howdy, all! Quite a while since I've checked in. I took my CBR for fork seal replacement today. In conversation, tech said that she teaches motorcycle safety and they recommend using rear…

- Nervous About Taking A Long Trip SEBSPEED One of the best motorcycle trip planning tips I ever read, is to send yourself a care package ahead of time to your destination. Why lug all the stuff with you, when you only need half of it before you get…

- Ecu Reflash For The 06-09 Vfr800 Am mainly interested in low speed throttle control. As far as smoothing out VTEC, maybe. I want to keep anything that prevents the engine from turning faster than what it was designed for. If it's possible to keep the…

- Attaching a battery tender It's the internet and how many posts do we have everyday, plenty. Yes, selling the VFR did catch my eye but who am I to judge. Took the time to sign up and post a topic, I like open door policies.
- Attaching a battery tender Look at Battery Tender site. There are two different types of plugs that can be used on the Battery Tender clips and a plug in type that is bolted to the terminals of the battery. If it's the battery tender your having…

- Reflectors And Paint Lines Another thing is tar snakes when wet. Was on the highway and raining going around a gradual turn I could feel the bike slide on tar snakes, just a little but enough to feel it. Very unnerving till it gets used to.
