  1. Couple of looks at my newly powdered wheels 18 Sep 2012 14:29 Love that color! The fender would be considered "unsprung mass" since it travels with the wheel (like the front calipers).
  2. '99 with Stickers Stripped and Y2K Mirrors 5 May 2012 04:15 Yeah, to me! Thanks again, George. The Heli's are great. I too like the "no sticker" look. I may pull off the big VFR logos as well. -John
  3. Considering a 5th gen VFR 21 Mar 2012 16:39 I paid $3000 for my '99 with 20K miles in late October, which in Chicago is the end of the riding season. Now, the season is just starting and sellers can raise prices a bit. You should be able to buy one for $3500 ish,…
  4. 6th generation seat on 5th generation 17 Mar 2012 16:15 Fifth and Sixth gen seats are completely different, and cannot be interchanged.

  7. good price for 2001 VFR? 25 Oct 2011 14:56 I just got my '99 for $3K, with 20K miles, but it had a Power Commander II, and a TBR slip-on. Needed a new chain and sprockets though.
  8. New Guy comments 23 Oct 2011 17:50 Nice! I also have a Hawk GT (1989 in red) in addition to my VFR, and previously owned a Daytona T595 as well. I may sell the Hawk because of the Buell (covers my V-twin needs, and is decent for touring, too). The…
  9. Replace D&D muffler w/ stock can on 2000 VFR w PCII? 20 Oct 2011 14:56 I have owned a '90, a '97, and just got my '99 a month ago. I can't speak about the handling yet, but I love the fuel injection over the 4th gen carbs. Mine came with a PC II, and I put a new map in it that I downloaded…
  10. Why are passenger handles such a b!#@h to find? 19 Oct 2011 16:36 Those are the one's that I bought for my '99!
  11. Why are passenger handles such a b!#@h to find? 19 Oct 2011 16:01 eBay right now, but getting pricey: http://www.ebay.com/...ssories&vxp=mtr
