  1. Check It All....and Then Again 23 May 2014 23:56 Glad you made it home safely and got her fixed. It's easy to strike up a conversation with a VFR owner..."So, tell me about the time you got stranded". If you don't have one yet, get a volt meter. I installed a Datel…
  2. Vfr750-St "pan Dutchopean" 12 Aug 2013 16:57 Nice Dutchy! The only way they might look better would be on my bike. :laugh: Chuck

  5. I Know A Guy, Who Paints . . . 8 Jul 2013 00:06 Take your time, it's only been like a month and a half. We are patient people. Just kidding man (about the patient part). :goofy: Chuck
  6. Close Call! 19 Jun 2013 14:47 I'm glad you survived the close call. Periodically, it's healthy to re-evaluate what we do for recreation and otherwise. Sometimes we reflect on things on our own and other times it's prompted by incidents like yours…

  8. Took Betsy Out For A Ride... Had To 2-Up With Brother Back Home. 17 Apr 2013 22:14 Getting stranded is a rite of passage for VFR ownership isn't it? I've been there also, no fun. Sorry you had that, but glad you had a ride back. Once you get her sorted, you will be fine (and love to ride it!) Chuck
  9. Jetting After Pair Valve Removal 25 Mar 2013 22:01 Hope you get her sorted out. In line with the problems you are experiencing, is there a set of gaskets to use with the plates or are folks using some kind of Permatex gasket sealer, etc? Or are folks just slapping them…
  10. Installation Issue With Staintune On 4Th Gen - Missing Bracket 14 Mar 2013 03:33 Bad news. i'm afraid it won't work without that piece.

  16. Waterproof Volt meter 22 Oct 2012 23:54 I just order me one. Thanks Maxredline !! Got mine but this thing is going to be impossible to see in the daylight. I velcroed my Datel under the left side of my dash. Seemed to help with visibility. Of course I dont…

  27. JUST PUSHED MY BIKE 3 MILES!!! DAG!!! 31 Aug 2012 01:06 I feel bad for you cause I've been there. About 2 1/2 years ago, I pushed mine exactly 3 miles to my house (later measured it in my car out of curiousity). For anybody that hasn't pushed one, it's very hard to balance…

  36. What's wrong with these pictures? 13 Jul 2012 11:44 Olive, In the close-up of the tires, that looks like a blade cut running horizontal across both tires? Hope its maybe just a pen mark or something of the sort? Chuck

  42. If VFR's last for ever, how come you see so few 4th. gens. on the road? 27 Jun 2012 21:58 There were actually two at TMAC, mine and Lee's. My bike is 17 years old. Like any other vehicle that gets that kind of age on it, they get wrecked or sadly parted out and over time not so many remain. For those that…
