  2. The High Mileage Thread... What Do You Have On Your Vfr? 10 Jun 2010 01:23 Just turned 50 K on my '00. I've almost always had another bike, including BMW touring bikes, so most of the riding has been local sport rides. Never a problem. I tried to sell it again this year, but buyers seem to…

  7. How To Ride In The Cold... 4 Nov 2007 04:29 Gerbing heated jacket liner and gloves get me through the cold. As far as socks go, I've been using the socks by BMW that wick the moisture away from your skin. REI also sells some nice socks. For long rides in cold…
  8. 2008 Vfr Announced... Dissapointing 6 Sep 2007 05:00 Now that's a beautiful motorcycle. If you click on the VFR link, you can get a good timeline going back to 1983. I'm sure everybody knows all that stuff by heart, but in case you forgot.

  12. Best Grade Of Stainless Steel Wool For Muffler Repack ? 28 Jun 2007 04:46 Decided to repack my Micron CF and didn't see a repack kit on their website, so bought a stainless steel kit from a local dealer and installed it. When I got off after my first ride, the canister was too hot to touch.…
