  2. VFR1200F insurance rates 4 Aug 2010 03:36 [image: View Post]horwitzs, on 02 August 2010 - 02:21 PM, said: Sure. My home and vehicles are all wrapped into one payment, so I don't know the exact itemized number for the VFR, but I switched from the '07 VFR800 with…
  3. VFR1200F insurance rates 2 Aug 2010 19:21 Sure. My home and vehicles are all wrapped into one payment, so I don't know the exact itemized number for the VFR, but I switched from the '07 VFR800 with only liability to the 1200 with full coverage, and my rate went…
  4. VTEC-SC... 26 Jul 2010 01:47 Alright Toro, since you brought up the 1200... Honda says the 1200 motor is physically smaller than the 800. Maybe that leaves you you more room for a... :biggrin: Any thoughts of tackling it in the future?
  5. Powercommander for VFR1200f 18 Jul 2010 05:04 I have a VFR1200f with a highmount Akrapovic applied. I want to have the fueling right. When is a powercommander available ? Talked to DynoJet sales rep in the US and he states that they have a new VFR in the back room…
  6. Pulled the trigger on the 12. 15 Jul 2010 16:17 I've read about the flapper mod... If the PCV isn't available soon I will go ahead with that. There's a rumor that it will be out at the end of this week though. If that's the case, I'm going to order one of those with…

  12. Lazy kick stand spring? 8 Jul 2010 03:34 [image: View Post]UltraMagnus, on 07 July 2010 - 05:28 PM, said: Compared to my last 2 hondas, this kick stand seems to be very "lazy" . It doesn't snap up with much authority. And a few times it actually got stuck…

  16. Pulled the trigger on the 12. 7 Jul 2010 05:27 Over the holiday I stopped in to visit the dealer where I used to work. It was the first chance I had to see the 1200 in person. I had no intention of buying one (holding out for the supercharger for my '07), but the…
  17. VTEC-SC... 7 Jul 2010 02:25 Well this is bittersweet... I've been rubbing my hands together for a long time waiting for this kit to finally be available, but it didn't make it to production quite soon enough. Instead I pulled the trigger on the…

  19. What Would Cause Surging In Only One Gear? 31 May 2009 00:31 Shouldn't be a worn chain... only 500 miles on it and I've made sure adjustment is not too tight. And it definately isn't popping out of gear. I have a lot of riding experience on a variety of bikes so I know what that…
  20. What Would Cause Surging In Only One Gear? 30 May 2009 23:41 I've read a lot of threads about the common surging problem people have with VFRs, but I can't understand what would cause the surging to only occur in one gear out of the six. Chain tension, O2 sensonrs, and/or…
  21. 2011 Vfr 1000cc - 1200cc V4 Engine 19 Mar 2009 23:37 Sounds... different. I love that Honda be thinks "outside of the box" and explores new technological ideas, but I'm not holding my breath for this machine to show up, at least not exactly as described. Just because…
  22. It's Another One Of Those Bloody Vtec Threads 9 Mar 2009 00:21 Mine is typically very smooth... However, when it is not, it isn't a hesitation at all, feels more like the JATO rockets just kicked in!
  23. Give Your 5th-gen A Boost... 6 Mar 2009 16:51 Do you offer the boost gauge as an add-on option to the kit, or must if be sourced from someplace else?
  24. Might Buy New '07 24 Feb 2009 01:32 Works great except the 6th Gen has grab handles so the wife's hands are on the bike instead of me! :dry:

  26. How To Make A Rwb Anniversary Look Better. 15 Feb 2009 17:51 I know it's not what you want to hear, but... The most beautiful RWB I've seen had the stock body paint, but wheels powdercoated white to match.
