  1. FS Leo Vince carbon fiber for 6th gen 18 Jan 2011 15:17 I have a Leo Vince carbon fiber exhaust off my 2002 VFR800 for sale. I am selling the bike, and parting out the extras. I just pulled the system off my bike yesterday, and it is in perfect working condition with no…
  2. FS Power Commander 18 Jan 2011 03:15 I am parting out, and selling my bike. I have a like-new, used probably less than 1000 miles, power commander 3 USB for sale. I have it listed on ebay, see here: http://cgi.ebay.com/...K%3AMESELX%3AIT Attached…
  3. FS Red 2002 VFR800 8 Jan 2011 05:27 2002 Honda VFR800. 20,900 miles. New Dunlop Roadsmart tires. Sargent seat. Zero Gravity Double Bubble windshield. Factory service manual, and original user manual. $4000, obo. Attached thumbnail(s) [image: Attached…
  4. Starting noise 5 Oct 2010 15:40 For my 2 cents you get this.... I am going with 'hondalover' and suggest your battery sounds low. If I am correct, I am thinking that with the choke on it makes it a little harder to spin the engine due to the increased…
  5. NEP Throttle Lock help 17 Sep 2010 17:47 If its like mine, and from searching on the web it looks like it might be, mine was sticking/grabbing/hanging-up when I first put it on too. I had to slide my rubber grip on the throttle outward (on the plastic sleeve -…
  6. Help identify tank.... Please!! 30 Aug 2010 18:12 Uh huh, I see what you are saying. The fourth gen has the rear fairing piece that comes under the seat and connects to the tank. The 3rd and 5th don't. Now..... Is it good for ALL the 4th gens?? 1994 through 1998,…
  7. Help identify tank.... Please!! 30 Aug 2010 17:57 I saved this tank from sure destruction, well, maybe not - but whatever makes me feel better.... Anyway, I know it isn't for my 6th gen. Can anyone help me identify the generation / years this goes with?? Thanks in…
  8. How do you remove the stupid fairing clips? 28 Aug 2010 05:03 And, they can be replaced with these... http://www.thefastenerwarehouse.com/catalog/item/568361/2509102.htm much cheaper than buying from Honda. I even found some on ebay, which were a little cheaper and easier to…
  9. Fasteners 23 Jul 2010 02:10 Had a little bit of a hard time finding these, so I thought others might too. Of course, there is a 'Fastener Warehouse' AND 'The Fastener Warehouse' - we want The... And, here is a link directly to the part:…
  10. Linked Brake Burnouts ?? 14 Jul 2010 04:36 Have seen it done on youtube...
  11. Navigon GPS help 3 Jul 2010 22:09 Recently, I read through some GPS threads, and it seemed like there is a wealth of knowledge here about these gadgets. I received a free Navigon GPS with a tire purchase a year or two ago. I have been to their site to…
  12. Sibling Rivalry 3 Jul 2010 04:29 A freshly washed VFR700??? Huh, the first 700 I have seen!!
  13. Identify this exhaust 6 Feb 2010 18:29 Looks like the shape etc, of Leo Vince. Can you post a picture of the end of the cans? It looks like it has an emblem embossed on it.
  14. It's a PITA to build a rack to fit... 12 Dec 2009 04:41 Nice work!!! Looks good.
  15. 6th Gen Insurance Rates 22 Oct 2009 21:21 Can't resist, must chime-in.... I am paying Progressive $215 a year for full coverage with towing / roadside... and a $250 deductible. No multi-car, house, etc. discount. Just 38 year old with a clean driving record.…
  16. Vfr Does Costco 18 Oct 2009 02:42 Better be careful, someone might post you on the "People of Walmart" website. :biggrin:
  17. Unexpected Vfr Sighting 17 Oct 2009 23:23 In that girl's hand.... http://www.vfrdiscussion.com/forum/uploads/1253453594/gallery_16222_4434_81734.jpg
  18. Remus Exhaust Question 17 Oct 2009 21:40 Just my two cents, but, I don't like the angle of the cans on that white VFR in the picture above. It doesn't follow the lines of the bike.
  19. Unexpected Vfr Sighting 17 Oct 2009 21:22 " so what's going on with the propane tank in the living room??? " Yeah, looks like it has a space heater attached to the top. Gotta keep that VFR warm.
  20. Amber Signal Lens For 07 7 Oct 2009 19:56 Ryan, you were THAT close, and then . . . . .
  21. I've Got An 8 Spoke Wheel Coming... ...what To Do...? 26 Sep 2009 00:56 What do you do with your new wheel? O.K., I am willing to take the hit and help you out. I hate to see anyone suffer. Send it to me and forget about it. There, all your stress is relieved. No tough decision to make…
  22. Forget Honda! I'm Making My Own 7th Gen 26 Sep 2009 00:48 :+1: what vfrcapn said! I guess I am sentimental about the RWB since I had a RWB '85 500, and I really love Honda keeping the RWB alive. I can't image hacking-up a perfectly good anniversary model. A guy here locally…
  23. Exhaust Leak 16 Sep 2009 03:31 Can't speak to the gasket, my Leo Vince pipe was already installed when I bought the bike. I can say that I have never had any popping, with or without the Power Commander - or with or without the baffles. Good Luck!
  24. Help Me Id This Exhaust System 15 Sep 2009 04:24 I have no complaints. I have never ridden the bike with any other exhaust though. It does make some noise, but I kind-of like that too. I did put the plugs in recently, just to try it.
  25. Help Me Id This Exhaust System 15 Sep 2009 03:33 Looks like my Leo Vince system. See if I can paste this internet search pic in here: [image: Posted Image] Looks like this one is actually aluminum, but.... And mine is carbon fiber, but has the same shape.
  26. What Is This Apparantly Optional Hole? 15 Sep 2009 03:28 Optional Hole, yeah, I've never been allowed to investigate - can't help you there...... Seriously though, my red 2002 doesn't have that hole either. Good Luck!
  27. O2 Eliminator Resistor Question.... 7 Sep 2009 22:47 Thanks Coderighter for the technical info. Makes me wonder if any of the comments by others that they are having problems with their resistor install could be because they used too small of a resistor and burned it???…
  28. O2 Eliminator Resistor Question.... 7 Sep 2009 22:19 Thanks for the confirmation... That's what I thought - evidenced by the fact that I didn't buy the tiny 1/8 watt ones.
  29. O2 Eliminator Resistor Question.... 7 Sep 2009 21:24 So, I went to Radio Shack to get some 330 ohm O2 sensor eliminators and found that they come in different wattage. They range from 1/8 watt up to 1 watt (or so). Is it critical what wattage resistors I get? If so, what…
  30. Fan Switch Temperature Options 27 Aug 2009 00:38 Are you taking a poll because you are able to make a re-calibrated switch? Or are we just making conversation?
  31. Lights. 25 Aug 2009 19:24 Don't forget about the possibility of the filament in the bulb being broken. I have seen a number of times on cars were one headlight is out and you can tap on the headlight and it will come back on. The filament is…
  32. Just Got An 05, Tons Of Questions On Problems I May Have... 5 Aug 2009 23:09 Gotta love electrical problems!!!! :blink: Where are you located, maybe someone is near you. Good Luck, and enjoy it!!

  34. Dunlop Roadsmarts:5000 Mile Wear Report 16 Jul 2009 23:57 OK, I am getting real anxious for mine to arrive. UPS tracking says they are 'out for delivery' today. I got mine from MotoXOutlet for $243 to the door. Can't wait to have some new tires. Thanks for everyone's input!!
  35. Power Commander 14 Jul 2009 02:16 I bought mine on ebay from Parts411 a few weeks ago to the door for $268.00. I have a Leo Vince pipe, and love the improvement after the Power Commander. Can't speak to other mods... Get one, and enjoy!!! :biggrin:
  36. 03 To 06 Signal Housing Swap Help ! 10 Jul 2009 20:09 Cut, splice, soldier, and wrap. :fing02: I give this method a +1. I would even use some shrink wrap. Would be as good as factory. I would use yellow bulbs, though. Nothing more annoying than being behind someone at a…
  37. Aftermarket Exhaust For '03 Honda Vfr 800 17 Mar 2009 02:16 Bought mine with a Leo Vince Caron Fiber already on it. I really like how it sounds and looks. [image: Posted Image] DSC_0057.JPG
  38. Grab Handle Hole Covers 5 Mar 2009 02:17 I already bought some covers from a local dealer, and I think I will hang on to my handles - never miss something till its gone.. :huh: http://www.vfrdiscussion.com/forum/uploads/1235949961/gallery_16222_4434_774558.jpg…
  39. Should I Get A Power Commander? 2 Mar 2009 18:23 Thanks for all the responses. The bike has 18,000 miles. I just bought it and have a receipt showing the plugs were changed at 16,000. The rpm was probably somewhere around 4,000 when the power was coming and going…
  40. Should I Get A Power Commander? 2 Mar 2009 06:01 Let me start by saying I am not trying to gain max HP, just trying to have a nice, smooth ride. Made a couple observations while enjoying a very nice southern Arizona Saturday ride of approximately 250 miles. First, I…
  41. Grab Handle Hole Covers 25 Feb 2009 06:09 Thanks for the info on the hole covers. :biggrin:
  42. Grab Handle Hole Covers 24 Feb 2009 03:55 Can someone advise the part number for the grab rail hole covers for an '02. I would like to take off my passenger grab rails, but I don't have a set of covers, and the hole looks worse than the rails. Anyone have any…
