  9. Question About Comp Werkes Fender Kit 5Th Gen 29 Apr 2014 21:21 I just installed this kit and I like the look. It really cleans up the ass end of the 5th gen. However, I ran into two issues, primarily becuase of the BEYOND HORRIBLE instructions which came with the kit. (one page…
  10. Are Heli Bars For Me? 25 Apr 2014 02:08 Possibly.. I'm not very broad shouldered, so there might be a touch of extra length to my arms. What's an LSL kit? Changes the clip on style to a regular handlebar style system. Check out the classifieds. One member…

  16. Minor fairing damage what to do 17 Jan 2012 02:14 Honestly, save your money on fixing it. Murphy's Law will certainly force you to drop it once it's been fixed... Touch up paint for now, and then have them professionally painted before you sell it...if ever.

  35. Center Stand Leverage 11 Jun 2011 14:37 I generally like the idea as long as it doesn't bonk the swing arm when up. Go spend $50 on a used center stand and try it out. Could be the start of a new business opportunity for ya!

  37. Beware the Yellow Peril 11 Jun 2011 14:29 So it is true then...Yellow VFRs are the fastest! Isn't it a little tough living in London and the US? A 10 hour plane ride just to go hop on the Viffer must be brutal! The bike looks friggin awesome...no doubt about…
