Last 50 of 65- Tinted shield or sunglasses I run clear with some perscription oakley gascans, but judging but the responces maybe I should buy a tinted visor
- wheels White looks good, I was leaning towards white but decided to go chrome, something about that 07 red and chrome, the 05 red would look better with white because it's a lighter shade.
- Turning left VS's turning right On a race course it's all pretty equal. On the street I think lefts are easier because if you're going thru twisty two lane roads and you have to make room for head on traffic you upright the bike, if it's on a Right…
- New chain & sprocket I did this last winter, if I remember right I tried to simply move it aside and the cylinder popped out and drained the fluid. if you could get it out and maybe wrap it in tape or something to hold it in you might be…

- whats the difference [image: View Post]Macs06VFR, on 22 July 2010 - 07:39 AM, said: And your insurer may be asking because the rate is different for the ABS vs the non-ABS model. (One company I called for estimates gave me different rates.)…
- Would anyone be interested in a mod that would remove the VTEC system? judging on how the system works disabling or enabling v-tec all of the time would be just a matter of bypassing or blocking the solenoid valve(which would lead to a whole new set of problems starting with the check…
- An interesting survey... [image: View Post]Ryanme17, on 22 April 2010 - 10:47 AM, said: Quote in U.S. states where training programs are mandatory for young riders under the age of 21, crashes are up 10 per cent. To think that this means safety…
- 6th gear :goofy: Well, I run a -1/+2 sprocket combo. So, 6th gear is used on anything over 55mph actual, not indicated, my speedo's about 20% off from the change, I know 43=35 actual and 80=63 actual, I'd get a speed healer, but…
- Needs some input from 6th gen owners That's a tough call but I think you might end up spending all that 5k with the trade to get a NOS '07. I'd look into doing that first and if the numbers are not what you want, then upgrade the 02.
- New Chain & Sprockets? [image: View Post]RollinAgain, on 07 April 2010 - 04:27 PM, said: One more thing, you will lose a few mph from your top speed. I'm sure this is very important to you since you probably spend the majority of your time…

- Randomly Idles Like Poo, Coolant Smell lets get all of the funny solutions out of the way Did you try giving it the "Fonzi smack"? Did you try adding NOS to the fuel tank? it sounds like a problem in the engine management system, since it's random and not…
- Which to choose: 07 or 09? [image: View Post]creggur, on 17 March 2010 - 10:27 PM, said: All things being equal, save the cash and go for the 07 in THE WORLDS BEST COLOR IN THE WORLD! :goofy:…

- A slight "Wubbing" noise I'll try both of these idea's, nothing like an excuse to ride my VFR around. right now my chain is barely hitting the chain guard when it's in the center stand. from what I read on some other post it gets looser when…
- A slight "Wubbing" noise I changed out my sprockets to a -1/+2 and took it for a spin yesterday and noticed a speed related "wubbing" noise. it sounded like it was coming from the rear but it's hard to say for sure. I did some trouble shooting…
- Carbon Sheets on the Heat Shield I like it! I just bought some 3M Di-Noc carbon fiber vinyl overlay. I plan on doing some of the small matte black plastic pieces under the seat and maybe the dash. I originally was going to make a vacuum forming box,…
- Run Away I had a throttle cable stick on my 88 Riviera it was a scary experience, lucky for me I know how cars work and threw it into neutral, then neutral dropped it a few times and limped into a parking lot. I opened the hood…
- VFR1200 is top seller in the UK My guess is the sales are coming from the fact that it's a new model, when looking at other bikes why buy a 2010 at sticker when you can buy an 08-09 with rebates for the same bike, with the 1200 you don't have that…
- Ram stem mount on 6trh Gen [image: Posted Image] SCAN0166.JPG [image: Posted Image] SCAN0165.JPG I just installed one of these over the winter. It sucks! it's in their but it's tight and loose at the same time (won't fall out but wiggles). I've…
- Spain vs Thailand :cheerleader: Oh, I thought the question was about who would win in World Cup Soccer.
- VFR1200 Upgrades What? No Torocharger option? :goofy: I'm still waiting on the official 6th gen option. BTW - I'm in need of an excuse to Justify getting a Toro charger when the kit is officially launched to give my wife. Oh, and she's…
- Too expensive retail prices [image: View Post]Jussi, on 04 March 2010 - 02:15 PM, said: VFR1200 sure is expensive bike but is it too expensive? Here in Finland we have to pay quite lot for any new bike. Anyway I think VFR1200 is fairly priced in…

- For the v-tec owners....and some. I use VTEC more than I use 3rd and 4th gear, I just wish you could select the RPM it engages at.
- Too expensive retail prices The VFR was in a niche market, a small sport tourer that was the sportiest of the bunch, and had all of the nice features at a great price. Now it's up-sized into the standard sport tourer market, and sorry I'll buy a…

- Thinking about getting a 07 vfr [image: View Post]bandit98, on 19 February 2010 - 01:53 PM, said: Damn, where is the Big Mac offer? I emailed the dealer haven't heard anything yet. VFRs seem so rare in Ohio, plenty of 09s for 11k out the door but…
- Thinking about getting a 07 vfr I've got an '07, live in Parma (cleveland), The ride is great! it really smooths out around 130mph (J/K...or am i?), I'm a light weight when it comes to really long rides, but it's about 50% more comfortable than my old…

- My 2 cents I sat on the 1200 this weekend at the bike show, the ergo's feel the same, the suspension feels the same (pushing down on it) it doesn't feel any heavier, and the seat was narrower allowing my feet to hit the ground…
- a vtec thread... All VTEC needs and selector switch; auto, off, on, and manual-push button control. Imagine pushing the VTEC button at 9K. They could even add a Audible tone like 3 beeps to warn the other riders your about to enter…

- Center Stand! getting it up on the center stand is kind of an all or nothing movement, i get the stand down and lean the bike level so both legs of the center stand are firmly on the ground. then I put all of my weight (200lbs) on…

- If not a 7th Gen, why not a CBR1000 then? Here's what I like in bikes that made me buy a 6th gen: Single sided swing-arm - A must for me Ducted under seat Exhaust - an almost must for me sport handling - a middle ground between RC51 and goldwing comfortable…

- Stolen VFR I know it's difficult but just call the insurance company and collect the check. God, I'd feel violated and want Justice too, but from the outside looking in the best thing is to just move on. On a side note when I…
- VFR1200FA $18999 in Canada I bet they sell less than 100 units in Canada given the Population and Climate, just wait till there's some dust on them, guessing by the deal I got on my 07 this past june, you can expect to get a 2yo NOS VF1200RA for…

- I don't belieeeeeve it!! I guess it's a bad thing that I swapped mine for a 40A, I also carry 2 30A under the seat
- Man, I like the White VFR1200. +1 white looks very BMW-ish, i also just notice the tank looks like the hump on a buffalo, in fact the whole thing resembles a buffalo.

- Modified My Chain Gaurd. What Do You Think? Ouch! :laugh: So the key is not to crash. Check. :unsure: :fing02: I still think Ill leave it off. I saw one for sale made out of carbon fiber once. If anyone knows where I can get one Ill put it back. For me it is just…
- 6th Gen Front Wheel Compatiblity isn't the 6th gen rim the same as a CBR? they look the same, can anyone enlighten me too? IDK, I'd just pull them and paint them, then paint them back later. RWB's have Black rims, at least you don't have to find the…
