- Vfr1200 seat to long I have a 2010 vfr1200 with a Corbin lady gunfighter. Great seat, clearly great quality. Unfortunately, it is too long for me, putting my crotch high and against the tank, 4" from the butt pocket. Even more important is…

- What is everyone paying now that VFR1200f are available.... $13500 in Potsdam NY.
- Stumped, frustrated, and missing riding season! I'm assuming it actually ran for a few seconds on a prime, not just popped a little - yes? if so it can run with proper fuel delivery. if not, starter clutch / igniter pickup timing, compression, bulk vacuum leak,…
- Heating / Cooling I also see the same temperatures. While at deals gap, living above 7K for extended periods, with outside temps in the 80's, I hit 240 several times and 250 with flashing once. Any extended hard riding I do seems to…
