  1. Gun-shy or prudent? 19 Jul 2011 13:41 Similar story here, but one factor for me is that my left knee pops and feels uncomfortable when I try to get that leg in the proper position.
  2. Throttlemeister for a VFR 18 Jul 2011 19:38 Whichever throttle-lock you choose (I happen to have a Throttlemeister and like it - both in terms of function and look), they are only good on long, flat stretches of roads. Any uphill, you slow down, any downhill, you…
  3. Throttlemeister Install 2 Dec 2010 17:33 You want it pretty well flush...you'll know you've got it when you "dry test" it. With the engine off, turn the throttle, and then lock your Throttlemeister. Does it hold? Furthermore, is it not too tight, i.e. you…
  4. Throttlemeister 23 Nov 2010 20:53 I just ordered mine directly from their web site. :fing02:
  5. "vfr800 stand" does one exist 27 Sep 2010 18:15 It's all technique - I do similar to the steps outlined above, but I end up "standing" on the centre stand with my one foot once I fully commit and my weight alone will do the trick. I don't have a CS on my 1990, but I…
  6. Viffer goes leafing in Colorado 22 Sep 2010 19:57 jealous jealous jealous thanks for sharing - awesome pics
  7. Your Favorite VFR pic 9 Sep 2010 14:23 http://www.vfrdiscussion.com/forum/uploads/1225987560/gallery_1750_4261_7274.jpg I only wish I wasn't going so fast that the photographer could have centred the pic better!! :pinocchio:
  8. Rock Slide On The Dragon " UPDATE" 15 Mar 2010 20:53 [image: View Post]1996900sp, on 15 March 2010 - 03:36 PM, said: Anyone notice the severe case of man boob? Like a scene out of Best in Show or something. Yeah, he's got quite a rack of man-tittays... He needs a…
  9. VFR1200 australian pricing 29 Jan 2010 20:32 :goofy: :goofy: Yep, as an old codger I've EARNED the right to pay less, or grumble about it. Like you said, as a hobby it's steep. I lived for a year in Perth, Australia, and there laying out $10K for a low miles…
  10. VFR1200 australian pricing 26 Jan 2010 14:25 Maybe I'm showing my age here, but motorcycle prices in general have gone wacko. A few months ago Cycle Canada had a BMW on the cover and was going on and on about it being "cheap". Yeah, cheap as in $20K, which is in…
  11. saw it in the metal 15 Dec 2009 14:33 Yeah, when I said "look over there!!!" and tried to vault up on the bike, they tackled and tasered me. :goofy: [image: View Post]VFR4Lee, on 14 December 2009 - 11:43 PM, said: Quote Unfortunately it was on a spinning…
  12. saw it in the metal 14 Dec 2009 14:49 Well I went to the Toronto show on Friday night, and they had a new VFR there - a manual clutch version. Unfortunately it was on a spinning dais, so I couldn't sit on it. The Honda guy manning the dais at the time (an…
  13. Will You Buy Without A Test Ride? 23 Nov 2009 20:06 I fall into the "I can't justify plunking down $20K with no test ride" camp. I don't know why dealers haven't found a better way to deal with this than their current method(s) (e.g. outright refusal or lame, chaperoned…
  14. Honda Canada Press Release 21 Oct 2009 15:22 I took a quick look at some local dealer sites and couldn't find any 2009 VFRs!! But here's an idea for an 08 ABS - MSL $14,700 but on sale for $11,500: http://www.dewildtho.../sportbikes.asp
  15. Corbin Seat Material 30 Sep 2009 20:08 carbon fibre here I didn't notice any big adjustment over my stocker. It is more slippery, but not so much that I was sliding all over the place.
  16. Pazzo Levers? 10 Sep 2009 19:18 Blue Streak Racing has a good deal on ASV standard silver levers. I got myself a pair and love 'em - more adjustable than Pazzos. Free shipping in Ontario, too! http://www.bluestrea...vers/index.html
  17. Whats Under The Black Cap On The Base Of The Handle Bars? 30 Jun 2009 00:54 A hole. :biggrin: Mine is currently filled with a rubber plug holding my GPS. :fing02:
  18. Stop Flat For Ever 18 Jun 2009 22:06 spam is yummy....
  19. How To Make A Rwb Anniversary Look Better. 30 Apr 2009 15:12 Holy crap. Makes me want to come down there and get one. BTW - I'm firmly in the "it's beautiful as it is" camp. :blush: [image: View Post]leanit, on Feb 15 2009, 01:54 PM, said: [image: View Post]blackbuell, on Feb 15…
  20. Want Chrome? 15 Apr 2009 20:48 Bling bling, mothaf###!!! Dat be a straight up pimpin' VFR, yo! [translation - that is a shiny VFR]
  21. Pics Of Your Gps Setup 5 Apr 2009 18:46 Here's maybe a stoopid question.... Can the little suction units that hold on to the inner windshield of the car be used on the tank? They seem to hold pretty dang tight on the windshield.... :huh:

  23. Its (un)official ! 21 Oct 2008 18:20 That seat looks comfy. Better sell your Corbin and/or Sargent stock, because that will put them right out of business. :biggrin:
  24. 4 Wheels Moves The Body, 2 Wheels Move Soul (long With Pics) 17 Sep 2008 19:14 Proof that where there's a will there's a way. :biggrin:
  25. 09 Vfr 1000f 16 Sep 2008 20:11 fugly wake me when there's something at a dealer :schla15:
  26. Holy Cow It's True, Maybe 9 Sep 2008 03:27 Hmmm...how can I find a way to make some crack about how they got it right with the 3rd Gen and then post a pic of my bike, complete with beautiful big-ass fender, WHITE 8 spoker rear wheel.... :goofy: :goofy: :laugh:…
  27. Low Speed Wobble 3 Sep 2008 16:39 My 1990 3rd Gen has done this for a few seasons...a fellow rider who is more "seasoned" than me (read - old, as in ancient) named Dude (not the one in The Big Lebowski) told me that I have some cupping in my front tire,…

  29. Want To Clarify 27 Jun 2008 18:17 I just finally read the original post...people sure are quick to get on their high horses - funny (not funny "ha ha") how we immediately assume the worst (i.e. he's serious vs. he's kidding) about people. "...like…
  30. New Arai Quantum 2 Helmet 4 May 2006 15:21 This may be a dumbass question, but shouldn't a "good system" be easy to change, and not require loads of practice and/or a training CD? Especially considering they are mucho $$ ?? BTW - I'm just asking, cuz I've only…
