All 33- OEM panniers vs. Givi V35 PLX bags [image: View Post]anbark22, on 02 October 2011 - 09:19 PM, said: [image: View Post]ddr, on 02 October 2011 - 06:48 PM, said: If anyone would like an OEM topcase and brcket for about the price of Givi, I have one I'd…
- OEM panniers vs. Givi V35 PLX bags If anyone would like an OEM topcase and brcket for about the price of Givi, I have one I'd sell for $600 plus shipping. MSRP is $1,100. Never used. And I'd even throw in the OEM bag liner to boot. I'll post a classified…
- How many miles did you get on your oem vfr12000 tire? My OEMs are Dunlops. I took the rear off at 4,750 miles but kept it. It looks like it's probably got another 1,200 miles or so left in it. I put another OEM Dunlop on because the OEM Dunlop front is only about half…
- The harshness is GONE! I finally had a chance to try my new suspenders. Lindemann reworked forks, Penske shock, stock springs, and basic setup by Solomoto. (Thank you SM!) 1,100 miles over four days to the Hells Canyon Motorcycle Rally in NE…
- Hells Canyon Rally 2011 If you do make it to Joseph, stop in at the R&R drive in, just off the main intersection in town, and say hello to Jennifer Zollman. She'll probably be too busy flipping burgers at the grill to say hello back, but tell…
- Hells Canyon Rally 2011 I'll be there for sure. Been going pretty much every year since inception when it was just Steve Folkstad and a few of his riding buddies at the Geiser Grand. It's my favorite corner of the state. Lots of good roads and…
- MCCruise for 7th gen VFRs Yup. But what can I say? These aren't exactly mass market dvd players. Or even niche market VFR panniers -- Yikes!! I'm just grateful I can be on the buying end of this particular equation rather than trying to make a…
- Greetings! new to the forum Gilroy. Yes, home of Garlic Galore. But also of Kirigin wines. One of the best, most reasonably prices wines I've ever found. Also not far from Laguna Seca. What more does anybody need? Welcome! I hope to see you on a…
- MCCruise for 7th gen VFRs I've been corresponding with Tony Guymer at MCCruise for some time. They finally found a 1200 FD (DCT) bike to work with and have developed a kit that works for both models. Yesterday he told me "We should have a kit…
- Rear shock Hey Solomoto, thanks for the setup info. I'll use that as my baseline. But I know you'll understand when I test and fiddle and play from there. Partly just because I'm curious, partly because to me that's part of the…
- Rear shock This thread has been really helpful. And has saved me some money to boot. Thanks! I too have Lindemann-reworked forks and a Penske shock. Jim Lindemann gave me a 1200# shock spring and 1.05 fork springs. But I just…
- Maniac Salamander? I have one on the veefalo works great. Hi HS. Your reply surprised me. I put a Throttlemeister on my 7th gen DCT last summer. It did a good job of holding the throttle physically steady, but in use it wouldn't hold the…
- Spain MotoGP No matter what happens on and off the track, I'd enjoy watching it more if Speed would can Greg Cramer and his over-dub and just let Nick Harris and Gavin Emmett call all the shots... :mad:
- Power Commander I received notice that my PC will ship today! Hooray! :cheerleader:
- The Lazy Windscreen Removal method Very helpful. Thanks!!...
- Power Commander I got the same response: "The 16-020 has not yet been released. The ETA is 30 days. It could be released sooner but there is no way for me to tell at this time." I'm willing to wait...
- Bazzaz needs a VFR1200 for product development I second the motion for electronic cruise control...
- Bazzaz needs a VFR1200 for product development Just to close the loop: I decided yesterday to purchase a Power Commander instead. It's available now at a reasonable price, I expect it will solve the relatively minor fuelling issues I have, and it avoids the…
- Power Commander Thanks for posting that the PC is now available for the 1200. I might not have noticed otherwise. I ordered mine last night! I expect it'll solve -- or enable me to solve -- the relatively minor issues I have with…
- Bazzaz needs a VFR1200 for product development I'm really interested in what he might come up with. I don't live very close to Chico, but I'd hate to see him decide not to bother with the 1200 for lack of a test mule. Mine is a DCT if it matters...
- Bazzaz needs a VFR1200 for product development Any indication how they think they'l get around the proprietary Honda interface/plug/dongle/fly-by-wire issue that has (if I read another thread correctly) stymied other developers?
- Simple, but expensive garage door opener mod My Flash2Pass opener is wired to the high beam circuit. It works, but it isn't nearly as entertaining as this one!... :laughing6-hehe:
- Elka Group Buy - End of the Year Supersale That's a really good price, but I just recently purchased a Penske for my 7th gen and think it should last me a while! :biggrin: I do hope you get some takers. I remain convinced that improved forks and shocks are the…
- 2011 Kootenay Hootenanny 2 - PNW/Canada Meet in Nelson, BC ...got my room booked. Can't wait for some warm Canadian summer sun, and a cold Canadian beer or two in the evenings!.. :+1: :beer:
- Rear seat cowl. Although I can't yet speak about results yet from personal experience (I'm still waiting for my Penske shock to arrive, any day now I'm told), I do believe that work done on suspension is the biggest thing the 1200…
- Talking 2010 Seattle International Motorcycle Show If anybody would like to get together for lunch next Saturday, let's meet at the VFR in the Honda display at 1:00 pm and walk over to Pyramid together. 2 questions: Is 1:00 too late? or too early? Do we need to (or can…
- Throttlemeister I've already sold my Throttlemeister, but thanks for the interest. I hope you find one somewhere else. I'm liking my 1200 A LOT! It's exactly what I was hoping it'd be: Something better suited for long days in the…
- Throttlemeister I have a Throttlemeister that I bought for my 1200 DCT. I used it once, but t didn't work very well (presumably because Honda's fly-by-wire throttle keeps trying to outsmart it), and I put the stockers back on. Looking…
- Talking 2010 Seattle International Motorcycle Show I'd join you for lunch on Saturday if you put something together. Just let me know when you'd like to get together and how to find you. Thanks!...
- 2011 Kootenay Hootenanny 2 - PNW/Canada Meet in Nelson, BC I've booked a room for Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights. A friend from Montana may join me on his ST 1100.
- Need Some Help With Suspension Nevermind! ;-) I should have exhausted my own resources before I asked. In my "files" (a charitable word for how I store stuff), I found an article I copied several years ago from an old issue of Sport Rider magazine,…
- Need Some Help With Suspension Earthshake Somebody on this forum provided me this info when I did the 929 shock conversion. Use this for guidance AFTER you have properly set sag. This is REALLY helpful, but for me it raises a question. Several…
- VFR Steering Quirk? Did your suspension makeover have an effect on this? If so, how would you describe it now? I'm getting ready to talk to my local suspension guru (Dave at GP Suspension), and want to be able to give him as much…
