All 31- Insurance: Allstate vs Progressive [image: View Post]Joker, on 24 May 2010 - 07:12 PM, said: My wife is an Allstate agent, and all my bikes are insured with Progressive if that tells you anything.. I would have paid the extra $$ (several hundred per…
- Insurance: Allstate vs Progressive I currently have my bikes insured with Progressive and they make it clear that your gear is covered just like other accessories with $1000 built in coverage and the ability to add more. I'm quoting with AllState (who I…
- Time For Some Maintenance... Well, the end of my riding season is close enough that I'm going to start tearing my VFR apart to put in a thermostat. Should be perfect weather for testing once I get it back together (I'm slow and will likely not…

- New Items On My Vfr; Helis, Throttlemeister, And Grip Heaters [image: View Post]rangerscott69, on Apr 22 2009, 06:11 PM, said: You dont have to take your hand off the throttle to set the throttlemeister. I just roll my hand down. This turns it halfway or more. Then I let go of the…
- New Items On My Vfr; Helis, Throttlemeister, And Grip Heaters [image: View Post]timmythecop, on Apr 22 2009, 11:50 AM, said: did you notice any difference in vibration with the Throttlemeisters on? I thought I noticed slightly less vibs but it may just be in my head. I'll know…
- New Items On My Vfr; Helis, Throttlemeister, And Grip Heaters Ok, the grip heaters on installed but not connected so I can't comment yet. First ride with the Helis today and so far I like them. They raise me up just enough to get me out of the turbulent air from the windscreen…
- White Color Scheme [image: View Post]spyder, on Apr 21 2009, 04:10 PM, said: You can get a new 07 RWB for $7500 from Charlotte Honda. I'm starting to sound like thier ad boy. I'm very happy with my new 06 white ABS for $7500. So that's…
- Newbie If that white was available in the US I'd seriously consider trading. The silver and red both look good with the gold wheels.
- Newbie Interesting that the Honda UK site actually has a "Sprt Tourer" category. The US and Canda sites list the VFR under "Sport". The Honda UK site shows all the bikes with the standard gray wheels so you must show us pics!

- Cycle Hill Tire Changer, Licensed No Mar Product I have a No-Mar tire changer...and no I can probably never justify the price I paid from a purely monetary standpoint but the thing is awesome and makes the job a breeze. The Cycle Hill looks decent but nothing like…
- 17" Laptop Tail Bag Options [image: View Post]marasmus, on Oct 10 2008, 10:25 AM, said: Just a follow-up... I haven't heard anything back from the Luggage Locker guys. Here's what I wrote: Quote I've been looking for a quickly removable tail bag…
- 17" Laptop Tail Bag Options Does it have to be a tailbag? I do have the Luggage Locker tail bag and it won't fit my 14" Lenovo laptop so you're Dell definitely isn't going in there safely. However, I later purchased their Laptop Locker tank bag…
- Safety Recall Done, finally. No issues and all my headlights still work.
- Safety Recall Sitting in Action Honda while they work on my bike so I thought I do a little surfing. Wife was following me down as we have a Honda mower with a safety recall also...side note, she's about 45 minutes behind me because…
- Safety Recall Called Action Honda today and they said the part was in and he was preparing to call me before I called him (sure). Scheduled to take my VFR in on Saturday, June 21st for the repair. I told him up front that he was over…
- Safety Recall My saga continues. Curt helped me BIG TIME by walking me through some of the differences between the pre and post recall harness and even sent some pictures. With his assistance I have determined that the dealership I…
- Safety Recall I'm glad to hear someone else did this for themselves. I've had some bad experience already concerning the harness recall (one dealer kept claiming they couldn't get the harness and the other tells me it has already…
- Safety Recall Ok, I took my bike in and they said the harness recall work had already been completed? I purchased my VFR from the original owner and we had specific discussions about how he had NOT had the recall completed and he…
- Safety Recall Ok, I finally convinced the local dealership to order the part without having my bike in their shop! They said they'd know within 5 days if the part was on backorder. The also told me about the PCV safety recall and…
- Safety Recall So, I've been trying to get help from the Honda dealership in my home town but they keep telling me "we've had one on order for over 2 months". So I call the dealership in the city where I work and the lady tells me…
- What Bike Covers Do You Use I have a cheap nelson rigg to keep dust off in the shop. For regular outside use I would check out Geza Gear.
- Ok.the Last One� To me it is too close to the 6th Gen. I'm hoping if/when Honda comes out with the next VFR that it is a large departure in looks (I own a 6th Gen and like it, I just want something new) while keeping some of the major…
- Installing Heli-bars. Any Tips? Great thread! I have my heli bars but I'm waiting for my new grips and heaters to start the install...this info will really help. My only question is to use grip glue or not. Seems like many members get by without it.
- 2005 Oem Luggage On A 2003 - Silver Any pictures yet?
- 2005 Oem Luggage On A 2003 - Silver I've got the 05 bags for the 03 but haven't put em on yet, not sure when I will either. I got em from Silvers and got a great deal. I'll try and get pics tomorrow of em together. BTW, thanks for the lead on em Seb…
- 2005 Oem Luggage On A 2003 - Silver I've already found where to buy them, I was just wondering if a member had a picture of a 2003 with 2005 luggage to show the color difference.
- 2005 Oem Luggage On A 2003 - Silver Well, I was looking closely at the Givi's in black and gloss silver. They would cost more than the closeout OEM stuff.
- 2005 Oem Luggage On A 2003 - Silver Ok, my understanding is that the 2005 silver was darker than the 2003. I'm thinking of purchasing 2005 luggage for my 2003. Does anyone have a picture of this setup to show the color difference? It's hard to pass up the…
