  4. Where are the 2011's? 15 Oct 2010 16:49 I guess Honda is now giving away the luggage, centerstand, and heated grips in Europe and Australia but not the US. Go figure. Flash

  6. Where are the 2011's? 11 Oct 2010 15:00 I'd buy one if they threw the luggage, heated grips, and the centerstand in on the deal. It should have come that way in the first place. Flash

  11. 2011 VFR Colours 7 Oct 2010 04:52 The bikes should have come with all the stuff they are now giving away "free." I think Honda's sales would increase dramatically if they offerred the same program here. BTW, I still like the red the best... Flash

  18. vfr12 vs k13 28 Apr 2010 23:41 The K1300S would be hard to beat, especially with all of it's additional tech and the lack of saddlebags (as stock) on the Honda. I like both bikes, however. Flash

  25. Brake pads choice? Who uses what? Reviews 9 Mar 2010 22:25 I changed out my stock pads for EBC HH rated pads and cannot believe the difference. Much less lever action required to actuate the brakes. I left the rear stock pads in for less bias. Flash

  43. 6th Gen (02) Maintenance 4 Feb 2010 17:05 If the stalling happens after you've been running her hard at high RPMs, I believe the problem is low oil pressure from oil thinning. Try running a heavier weight oil and see if that fixes the intermittant stall issue.…
