- VFRD Thank You So Much It was great to be a part of this and actually see it happen! good stuff. Just make sure you are clicking your riding boots together and we don't see a pic of you on the veefalo in red high heeled shoes. :laughing6-hehe:
- Single front brakes conversion on 4th gen Whenever I see someone convert to a single disc, it just makes me want to do this [image: Posted Image] I have no idea why someone would want less braking power.

- Official 2010 TexasMac Picture Thread Most of my pics look like everyone else's. But I did capture this rare occurrence. I'm pretty sure this was after the 2-stroke blender had been run a few times. [image: Posted Image]

- Who crashed on NC28, Red 5th gen It seems a 6th gen went down as well. Anyone? http://us129photos.com/images/stories/PhotosOfTheWeek/20100408/1.jpg
- Big F Project That bike looks outstanding! But for some reason, I just keep thinking it would look great without the front fairing.
- Vtec Are you sure it didn't say Vortec?
- She Would Not Start Sounds like a battery.
- Pothole Shut Off My Lowbeams I've hit a good size bump and blew out a bulb. I would check the bulbs first.
- Is This A Good Deal For A Paint Job? [image: View Post]Knife, on Jun 11 2009, 04:24 PM, said: I'll repost when I get the cases back, hopefully with a picture. If the work is good, I'll post his name and number. He gets parts shipped to him often, paints…
- Riding Again After An Accident Baileyrock I think one of the biggest problems many riders encounter returning after a crash and especially if you happen to hit something or slide on that unseen dirt/gravel/oil is a habit of looking right in front of…
- Can You Cut Cans ? Yes you can cut them. You need to drill the rivets out of the end, pull the can off, mark it with tape around the circumference and cut with a grinding wheel or similar. The you'll need to cut the baffle shorter, drill…
- Pics Of Your Gps Setup Here's my GPS setup. I used an HPRC box (similar to Pelican), an Aqua box to house the Nuvi 5000, a scrap piece of aluminum bent to mount the aqua box to the HPRC box, A waterproof SAE plug mounted in the back for power…

- Want Chrome? "Want chrome?" - NO.
- Is The Vfr800 The Ultimate All-rounder? [image: View Post]TimC, on Mar 30 2009, 07:23 PM, said: Also, GS's are pricey and very tall compared to the VFR. Plus, throw in final drive failure stories and the GS probably doesn't inspire as much confidence from…
- Pelican Case As Side Bags? Stumbled on to this R1 on advrider with pelican top loading side cases. I think they would look better on a VFR. But don't look to bad on the R1. [image: Posted Image] [image: Posted Image] [image: Posted Image]…
- My Aching Back -- Are There Risers That Go Back Further And Higher Than Helibars? [image: View Post]cbennett5199, on Mar 24 2009, 07:01 PM, said: Unfortunately, most of the riding I do now involves longer slab runs, and my back has been getting worse for a while. I have ridden with heli-bars a while,…
- Lsl Superbike Kit Installed! [image: View Post]Misspent Youth, on Mar 20 2009, 02:12 PM, said: Because the bars put your hands out in the wind a bit, I've since added some V Strom hand guards. Here are pre-guard pics: Got pics of the Vstrom hand…
- Lsl Superbike Kit Installed! [image: View Post]canib, on Mar 19 2009, 12:22 PM, said: Awesome! More pics! Did you have to do any drilling for the LSL clamps, or are the top triple clamps replaced by LSL ones? Are there any other components that set…
- Lsl Superbike Kit Installed! [image: View Post]pres589, on Mar 18 2009, 08:55 PM, said: I think a nice upgrade from my Gen-Mar's would be the LSL clamps and then a Renthal MX style bar with the crossbrace to mount farkles to as well as giving me…
- Lsl Superbike Kit Installed! After 14,000 miles last summer I decided I needed to something to make this bike more comfortable or sell it and get something else. Well, the VFR is my favorite of all the bikes I've owned. Including those that I built…
- V-tec Valve Adjustment $600 is ridiculous. I'm going to go BR's route. I'll just ride it and won't bother with a valve check, find another motor, sit it in the corner of my garage, if I have a problem swap the motors out.
- Pelican Case As Side Bags? Function over form! Do it!
- Tank Pad 6th Gen [image: View Post]SEBSPEED, on Nov 12 2008, 12:03 AM, said: Tom, if you get yourself some 3M clear vinyl we can make a nice one at my place, I have stencils that I made from my Tankslapper kit. As a second choice, I'd…
- Just Found This Not Sure If You All Have Seen It Yet Every time I see one of these threads I just "hear" Charlie Brown's mom talking.
- Just Got A 2006 Prl Blk $8000 Only 966mi Congrats on the new to you bike! Although, you do realize that the pearl black absorbs the most light and is therefore the slowest of all VFR's? :biggrin: Oh, and maybe you should post some pics so we all believe you.
- Ds Tires On A Vfr This guy rode an R1 to Alaska. The VFR should be no problem at all! http://video.google....823511260224128

- Staintune Spuds - In Or Out? Leave 'em out if you like it. I have gutted stock cans. They are loud but I'm positive it's not louder than the HD's that leave every morning in my neighborhood. Yes, we should police ourselves but let's not get carried…
- How To Make Your 6th Gen Roar I'll give you an A for effort for trying something else. But to be honest, that looks terrible. I know it's just a mock up. But even with a real pipe and slip on..... it still doesn't look good. Just my two cents.
- Vfr Triple Clamp Project Wow! That's some very nice machining! I'll take a set! :blink:

- Want To Clarify OMG - close this thread. I can't take anymore of the self righteousness. Let's stick to VFR's and riding. :fing02:

- Shifting The Vfr [image: View Post]dutchinterceptor, on Jun 26 2008, 10:14 PM, said: At the risk of spurring on the oil debate I'll admit that I found the M1 did make for rougher shifting when I switched from the HP4. That's good. At…
- Shifting The Vfr Man, the timing of this couldn't be any better. I have been experiencing some clunky shifting with Mobile1. Not impressed at all with it in this bike. I'm due for another oil change in the next week or two. I'm not sure…
- Want To Clarify [image: View Post]Stegen, on Jun 25 2008, 08:17 PM, said: That thread was totally sarcastic. I love my kids with all my heart and am SUPER glad he wasnt hurt. Thats the first thing i did when i heard it hit the ground,…
- Im Gonna Kill My Son AB-Oz instead of thinking of punishing your 4yo son, give yourself a smack in the head for allowing it to happen and be glad you're not posting something like "my 4y.o. knocked the bike over onto himself and was badly…
- Im Gonna Kill My Son Wow! I don't really know what to say to that post. First thing that comes to mind is .....He's 3 years old!!!!! Unfortunately, we can't pick our parents. Seems like this little boy got a bum deal.
- Group Riding Rules ^ Those are excellent rules. I only have 3 basic ones when riding on straight or multi lane roads with a group: 1. Always ride staggered. (this is obviously single file when on back roads) 2. Know your hand signals and…
- Oem Hard Bags; Looks And Where To Buy Don't bother with the side bags. They don't hold that much and make a wide profile. Get the topbox. Yes, it looks pretty ridiculous but it is without question the most functional of the OEM bags. It provides a pillion…
