Last 50 of 1,149- How long can you leave a bike unused before fuel causes problems? Gas goes bad is why I only run the emergency generator on propane. Can't run a bike on that, but I can get out at least 3 or 4 times a month and run 2 - 3 gallons through it. If we had winter here I'd use Stabil.
- We are starting the year off in good shape for VFRD I's good to see this forum just goes on and on and on. On and on and on. 😁 Don't know I will ever have another bike as long as I had the VFR, about 17 years. Rock on Miguel. 👍
- Rear hub flew off of my '92 Maybe just replace the axle along with the stuff that went mia or got broke. If it's questionable.
- Honda announce VFR “replacement” Long live VFRs, be they dead or alive! 😁
- Rear hub flew off of my '92 6 hours ago, BusyLittleShop This also happened to VFR4Lee in 2016... I haven't looked here in a while, and what do I see? Thank you BLS Larry, save me the trouble wondering where those pics were. Yeah, that sucked…
- Antisocial Riding Sounds like Dutchy would fit in fine here in Socal. Come on down. Probably want to avoid Texas though. 😀
- Highway 1 FUBAR'd again! We went last June and there were still a few fire trucks around from the big fires. I think it was still smoldering inland in the mountains. The way this looks they will have to build a bridge. Or route a section of…
- Highway 1 FUBAR'd again! PCH. Pacific Coast Highway. Or Perpetual Construction Highway. They should probably just give up, but it's an awesome ride and a huge tourist attraction that pulls in locals too. I'm sure they are already planning the…
- Just curious, so when does you riding season typically end The ride goes on forever, and the party never ends. 😀 Winter? 😝
- Jelorian's Racing Pics I think it was that 1988 Laguna Seca 500 GP race that got me into racing. Saw it on over the air TV, and just had to get cable TV, and go to the races the next year. It's a great all day ride up the coast. Kevin…
- Jelorian's Racing Pics I miss Laguna Seca. Have not been since i think 2013. Based on the T shirts. In 2011 Valentino and Nicky were team mates on Ducati. In the closet I have an autographed T shirt from Rainey, the year they named it Rainey…
- Joe Rocket Jacket I don't put anything more valuable than a snot rag in the jacket pockets. Wallet goes in the pants pocket with this JR gear. Phone goes in the trunk, or fanny pack if I bring that.
- Joe Rocket Jacket I had one with the perf leather sleeves. After a few years the leather rotted from sweat. I was lucky to find one without leather on Craigs list for $20 last year and snapped it up. I don't think the protection is on…
- Crash protectors I look at this kind of stuff as tip over protection, not crash protection. Will hopefully help if you fall over in a parking lot. Pitch it away with any speed, and all bets are off.
- VFR800 Sound Track from Phillip Island Awesome sound track. 😀
- Say it isn't so! I had an '03 Tuono and an '07. They were V twins. Fun bikes, fast and good handling. The Rotax motors are pretty bullet proof.
- Say it isn't so! 6 hours ago, BusyLittleShop Cut my wrist and it will bleed Honda red but for $28K Ducati is the current champion of the V4 for the masses... What masses are going to spend $28k on a bike? That's pretty steep. Not me.…
- Motorcycle Consumer News, RIP Yep. The world I grew up in is gone.
- Motorcycle Consumer News, RIP Sorry to see them go, they were excellent. Not long ago they had talk in the mag about putting all the old issues on line. Guess that won't be happening. Bummer. I used to get 7 or 8 paid mags plus a couple freebies.…
- I had to post this That's one of them fancy Italian VFRs. 😀 I think I'd want 3 or 4 days to do 1,000 miles on a bike.

- Bike stolen, steering lock broken I don't want to run over the cute little disease bags. But will not make a sudden swerve and risk crashing to avoid them dancing in front of me. Usually they dance out of the way on their own. I guess I have run over a…
- Maintenance tips Unplug wires. Remove part 2, remove bulb and replace. Helps to have small hands. But much less work. [image: image.png.c8ac45cf6b9c781156906a53107893e6.png]
- Bike stolen, steering lock broken You have terrible luck with animals, Max. Trees too? I don't think I have ever hit any critter bigger than a gopher. Knock wood.
- Bell RS-2 helmet deal I like to play the safety card. I need this new helmet to stay safe, this old one looks good, but says made in Dec 2010, Dear Wife. 😁
- Bell RS-2 helmet deal It was a really nice day. Sunny and 60's or 50's where I was riding in the Angeles National Forest. Finally a day to ride in leathers and not sweat. :beer: Very happy with this helmet, especially at the price. Would be…
- Bell RS-2 helmet deal The fit is about like the RS-1, just a little more snug, which I'll attribute to probably over 40,000 miles on that helmet. Wore it for 10 minutes in the house, since if you ride with it they call it used, and no longer…
- Bell RS-2 helmet deal Scheduled for delivery on, my wife's birthday. Not the best timing, oh well. 😄
- Bell RS-2 helmet deal I saw mixed reviews. If it is that bad, I will return it. I doubt that will be needed, but will see.
- LOOK MA!!!! Seb's famous!!! This is what happens when you do a real nice job and pay attention to details. You're an overnight sensation and it only took a bunch of years. 😄 Congrats Seb. :beer:
- When is a new bike old? My Monster wanted timing belts at 5 years, which it got. Only passed 13,000 mile the other day, but I am adding miles a lot faster than the first owner who did about 2,400 in 3 years. It's a '14 and I don't consider it…
- Does anyone know where my old Viffer is? (yellow 2000) Makes me wonder about my old 98 that I sold late last year with 82,xxx miles. Was running good, but still on the original shock, and could have used cosmetic work for scratches and stuff. Hope the guy is enjoying it…
- Bell RS-2 helmet deal I have an RS-1 helmet I like, but is well past 5 yo. Ordered an RS-2 from Revzilla for a smoking deal. Much lower price than the rest. Like $65 below the next best price I found. I figure this price can't last. I hope…
- Motorcycle hearing protection/earplugs RustyA, 9/15/2019 at 5:08 PM I always thought of it as selective hearing loss. Only hear what you wanting to hear. LOL That;s very different than. But still real. 😄
- Motorcycle hearing protection/earplugs I only hear the crickets in my head sometimes. Guess it could be worse, because it sucks when they come around. Coupla good Ronnie James Dio songs helps. Until the singing is over. Then it's back.
- Motorcycle hearing protection/earplugs MaxSwell, 9/11/2019 at 5:23 PM But that allowes me to better hear the voices in my head. You hear voices? So, you are possessed. Let's see if we can find you an exorcist. 😄
- Manual Mistakes? 11 hours ago, Skids Don't assume, it'll make an "ass" of "u" and "me" They taught that in my school too, LOL.
- What's a good beginner bike for my friend? 8 hours ago, dozyproductions The Socal (bad population sample) were more predisposed to running from the police. Is there an area of Poland called Socal? I don't think I know anyone here in L.A. who would rather try to…
- Manual Mistakes? I'll assume that is good stuff, and not some Dutch version of Bud Light. The making love in a canoe beer. 😝
- Manual Mistakes? I wonder how many different countries are represented by members here. I suspect it is a respectably high number. Gotta love it. 😎
- Bug Buster still working great! You should frame that one. Or something. Most of the bugs I catch are just splats.
- Manual Mistakes? Skids, 8/30/2019 at 1:26 AM May I refer the Honourable Gentleman to my previous post! :pissed: :wink: I saw it. Just having some fun. 😄 Regardless to the flavor of English, it's easier to understand than someone…
- Manual Mistakes? I learned my bits of British English from Monty Python. 😄
- Motorcycle hearing protection/earplugs I bought a variety pack with a whole mess of different plugs. Eventually decided I like the Moldex Comets (NRR25), and bought a box of 50 pairs. Speak up MaxSwell! What you saying? I can't hear you over the ringing in…
- Manual Mistakes? Nice idea for the "screw board". Too many things have inscrutable instructions written in ESL.
- BIKES THAT ARE NOT VFR's RIDE REPORT Never had a Nighthawk, but they looked cool. I had an '85 Yamaha Maxim 700. A competitor I guess. Modernish looking gauge cluster there. 😁
- Bike stolen, steering lock broken Yes on getting new keys cut for the bags before you send them to insurance. Or, tell them the deal with the keys, just don't try to claim the bags are gone. Of course.
- Picture Thread 19 hours ago, BusyLittleShop Monster Energy Girls Cannery Row Laguna Seca If that was me I'd be worried those girls would be laughing about that creepy old man. 😄 I don't know how you do it, but carry on.
- The Crash Heal well, take your time. I don't think anyone would fault you if you decide your MC riding days are over. I hope mine do not come to an end in a similar way, and will keep doing my best to insure that. Life comes with…
