  20. 5Th Gen Pciii Maps Suggestions 7 Aug 2013 01:01 Well I don't mind sharing the map I've been using on my 2000. It is supposed to be for a euro model. I can't remember where I got it from but it is working well for me. Pulls smooth right through the rev range and gets…
  21. Correct Key Blank For 00-01 Vfr...? 28 Apr 2013 22:10 Do you happen to know your key code? (the last 3 digits of what is stamped on the lock cylinders,). If your code is Axx or Bxx (where xx are two numbers,) the original Honda key blank is part # 35121-KW3-771. (type 1)…
  22. Interesting Battery Article 11 Apr 2013 17:55 Written by the technical editor of Wing World Mag The part about battery life and charging voltage makes sense. My 5th gen charges around 14.3v. Battery is 5 years old and still cranks great.…

  25. Modular Vs. Standard Helmets: Anyone Switch Back? 16 Feb 2013 18:31 I had a HJC modular until one day when it rolled off my seat, hit the chin bar on the driveway, and busted part of the hinge mechanism. When I took it apart to replace the plastic piece I realized how flimsy it really…
  26. 5Th Gen Givi Monorack Install Question 22 Jan 2013 17:41 I've just started building my own rack set up and was going to make my own reinforcing brackets. Can you tell me how thick the steel is that they used to make them? I'm guessing 1/8" but maybe 3/16" would be stronger.…
  27. Valve check interval 2 Oct 2012 16:16 The parameters in your poll don't quite fit for me. I checked mine at 45k. No adjustment was required, they were all perfect. Will I check them again?... not likely.
  28. Bigger Diameter Hand Grips for 2012 Honda VFR 26 Jul 2012 19:27 I put Pro-Grip 714 Dual Sport Rally grips on my bike a couple years ago. They're kind of a barrel shape and larger in diameter, soft and very comfy on long runs. They have a double flange next to the switch gear that I…

  34. distance between cat and rear shock mount 5 Jan 2012 04:56 Just took a look at mine, very tight fit but not rubbing on each other. Nothing is bent/pushed up. I do have my 929 shock slightly longer than stock. [image: Posted Image] hope that helps.
  35. Throttle Cable Length 6 Nov 2011 01:58 The pull cable is too long, the return cable too short. There is enough adjustment in the pull cable to take up the slack but the other one will need the inner lengthened. It's not a problem, I know how to build cables.…
  36. Throttle Cable Length 5 Nov 2011 23:31 What year of ST1100 did you get the cables from? I bought a set from a '96 and the free lengths are not even close. The outers will work so I'll probably make my own new inners the right length.
