  1. Vtec Shock Options 8 Jun 2011 17:59 I picked up my CBR F4i shock off ebay for $50 last year, after following the suggestions here. I had the spring replaced on it, and then had racetech springs & valves done in my front forks. I love it.
  2. What did you own before your 6th Gen? 8 Jun 2011 14:47 motormike Terminex 6th gen RWB was my first bike just under 2 years ago. have since added the 08 CBR1000RR track / race bike as well as the 09 Ducati 1198. I love both of these and they get a lot more use than the VFR,…
  3. What did you own before your 6th Gen? 6 Jun 2011 15:13 6th gen RWB was my first bike just under 2 years ago. have since added the 08 CBR1000RR track / race bike as well as the 09 Ducati 1198. I love both of these and they get a lot more use than the VFR, but I never intend…
  4. Penske vs. Ohlins shock 12 May 2011 00:37 My ohlins setup on my race bike is worth it's weight in "gold" 30mm NIX in front & TTX in the rear. Now, since Ohlins does not make a TTX for the VFR, I agree with the posters recommending the Penske. Both are very good…
  5. Time To Rebuild The VF1000R...IT LIVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 10 May 2011 00:18 Kel - you are DA MAN. That bike is beautiful. I just read through the entire thread for the first time. Impressive stuff.
  6. Black Widow Motorcycle Race Stand 9 May 2011 02:25 Just an FYI - I have the same front stand. I have pins to use it with both my VFR & my track bike. I also bought a T-Rex stand for the rear of the VFR with pins for the VFR as well as the SSSA on my Ducati 1198. The…
  7. Bike-specific exercises? 28 Mar 2011 15:59 +1 on Flexibility I firmly believe that on the track it has more to do with flexibility than strength. If you are very flexible, you will not be fighting you body to get it in the proper position. In the proper position…

  10. see my rack 5 Mar 2011 17:12 Another reason I like it is that I can use the stuff on any of my bikes. I have the only 1198ST in the US right now because of this:-) (1198 Sport Touring edition) Plus it is nice to have the only rack & bagster combo…

  13. How Often Do You Clean / Lube Your Chain? 19 Feb 2011 16:30 I clean the chain when it is black using wd40 until it is silver again. I lube the chain every few weeks unless i rode through rain / sand / etc..... Part of this is because i use synthetic chain lube that makes me…
  14. A&A Performance 6th-gen Supercharger Kits 7 Nov 2010 01:47 My CBR & 1198 have been getting all the attention for the last 6 months, and my poor VFR has languished in the garage. (except for the completely new suspension I did right before TMAC) This makes me REALLY want to get…

  17. 7th gen on the track 11 Sep 2010 23:43 There was a 7th gen going through track school today at Mid-America raceway. I never got any video of it, as I was running my normal track bike in the advanced group. I did have a talk with him prior to the class…
  18. Bridgestone Bt-016 27 Jul 2010 19:05 I had the 16's stock on my CBR1000RR when I got it last Oct. they only lasted me about 2500 miles, and that was while I was taking it very easy learning how to ride it. I liked the feel of the Power 2CT's MUCH better.…

  27. ProGrips Installed Poorly 15 Jun 2010 21:46 I have never needed more than my air compressor. shoot the air under the end of the grip all the way around, and it should come off. To put it back on you can use grip glue. I always just use a spray bottle with a mix…
  28. OIL 14 Jun 2010 15:02 I only use JASO MA certified oil. The only oil I have found that I can buy in bulk is the Shelkl Rotella T6 full synthetic. I care mostly about shear strength.

  35. Rock Slide On The Dragon " UPDATE" 16 Mar 2010 03:04 He's probably going to sue Toyota over this. (yes I am smart enough to realize his car is a lincoln, but this is America, what does that have to do with his ability to instigate a frivolous lawsuit:-)
