  1. Considering PCV - thoughts? 26 Mar 2012 00:15 if you don't want to buy the O2 eliminators, you can get some 330ohm resistors and install them. There's a "how to" here on how to do that. I presenty have the PC3 and it has solved a few things. I would definately get…
  2. Pirelli Angel ST Tires??? 26 Mar 2012 00:04 i had angels on my 6th gen for about 12000 miles and they handled better than the prevous tire, which was a diablo stata! I have the PR3's on now and they feel different than the angels. I would say that you could drop…
  3. 08 running hot w/Leo's ??? 3 Sep 2011 16:44 I hear the way to go, is to get the PCV and the Autotune. That way you don't have to have it tuned as it will do it for you. The 02-10's are mapped by gear, if I remember properly, and the PCIII won't do that. I have…
  4. Hard parts dragging 23 Jun 2011 13:06 For your weight, you'd want to run a 1150lb spring. Greatly imporves the bike and how it handles. I had mine et up by Jaime D. and it's loads better. I couldn't get close to the sag numbers without it and I way as much…
  5. Opening both pipes on TB V.A.L.E. 16 Jun 2011 16:07 The mid pipe doesn't have a heat sheild liek many of the other manufacrtures do. I have had mine on for 20,000+ miles and never had any issues with hitting it. I would like to know if someone connected the 2 cans and…
  6. Vtec....something new to add? 7 Jun 2011 15:50 MrHeelToe, I have a pcIII on my 06' and the transition was smoothed out when I had the dyno tune done. This was of, after I installed the two-bro's and the k&n filter. If you want my map, I can send it to you. just PM…

  14. Help Please 8 Feb 2011 17:20 It is completely worth it. I have it in mine and wouldn't go back. I don't have the snatchy throttle or the dead spot. I highly recommend it. You can save a little dough on the O2 eliminaters and use 330ohm resistors.…
  15. kerker slip on exhaust 8 Feb 2011 17:14 Nice pictures. I think that i like the tail with the exhaust in it's normal location. It's looks sharp with a fender eliminator. Just my .02 cents though :biggrin:

  20. 5th Gen TBR M2 Black Series Titanium 20 Jan 2011 16:42 Two Brothers doesn't look like they have a listing. I remember seeing it somewhere that the exhaust is close to 100db. That is, of course, at the loudest point. They do come with the P1 cone that lowers it by a few.…
  21. Michelin PP vs PPure milage? 14 Dec 2010 16:25 From what i've read about the 2 tires is that there are going to get about the same mileage. Michelin changed the cunstruction, tire grooves, and location on the different compounds. However, others wil be able to give…

  23. Sidi Vertebra II Replacement Soles 29 Nov 2010 22:43 I would call SIDI! I had a pedal bike shoe that I had of there's fixed at the shop. It might have been a little more, but the workmanship was the same as when I first bought them. Just my opinion though :biggrin:
  24. Throttlemeister 23 Nov 2010 02:49 I ended up just getting mine from the dealer. They had them in stock and plus, they gave me a 10% discount. :fing02:

  27. Street Legal Aftermarket Exhaust 29 Jul 2010 15:53 I think these p1x tip would be the way to go if you want something quieter. There quote is , "TBR PowerTip™ quiets the pipe about 7-8 dB with no significant reduction in horsepower." The p1 qoute is, "TBR PowerTip™…

  31. Electrical Issue (suprise huh) 5 Mar 2010 20:11 if one headlight blows the other follows quickly, you might have missed the first blowing [/quote] I check the lights ritually. They were all on when I started the bike and went out while I was letting it warm up and…

  36. Power Commander ineffective 5 Feb 2010 19:15 I have an 06' and had a simular problem. I don't have the cat-less headers but this fix might work. I would just make sure you are using O2 Eliminators.
  37. Dropped my bike tonight.. 3 Feb 2010 16:51 I dropped my bike a few years ago and ran into the same thing. Welcome to the club. I agree bending the rear foot lever back and order a factory front lever. They are pretty in-expensive for what you get. I replaced…
  38. ABS : worth it ? 25 Nov 2009 19:36 I have an 06' with ABS and would have it no other way. I have to agree with everyone else and say, "It pays for itself when the right situation presents itself." It's saved mine a few times. Of Course, I ride all year.…

  40. Frame Sliders For A 2008 Vfr 22 Oct 2009 20:44 I did a simular search when I came on board a few years ago. The best "no drill" sliders that might have the best results (no guarantee's) are around $400-$500us. The best that I came up with were in AU money somewhere…
  41. Initial Ride Impressions Of My 07 Vfr 22 Oct 2009 18:46 I have a Corbin on mine and love it. I have 16000+ and you will want to do something with springs in the front for that weight. I weigh 175 and end up putting a .95kg spring in. The bike set up better for me know and I…
  42. 6th Gen Insurance Rates 22 Oct 2009 18:24 I was quoted around $900 with progressive. GMAC quoted me around $540 a year. Farmers/Formost stink. I was with farmers for 10 years and when quoted the 06 vfr800 they told me a outragous price as well. My agent told me…
  43. Vfr1200 Torque 16 Oct 2009 18:31 If I remeber correctly, the wheel base is also longer. :huh: If that's the case, it won't handle the corners as well. You should still be able to take it in the twisties. Around Washington, we have our fair share of…

  45. Trading In Bikes 17 Aug 2009 18:10 When I have talked to dealers about this, they say that the original bike is better for them to sell. The buyers tend to buy an un-modified or a modified bike. Some people like to keep things stock and don't want load…
