  1. Recall Update 22 Mar 2016 15:56 I just dropped by my local Honda dealer to ask about the recall; I have not received a recall notice. Not too sure about what they told me I had to do. I have to bring the bike in, they verify all the info, and then…
  2. '04 exhaust mod. 19 Dec 2011 16:35 carlitos92, I guess I'm a little slow. Do I reinstall any of the pieces at the bottom of the last pic? Do I just end up with a completely hollow tube with just the original end cap? Thanks for your help.
  3. '04 exhaust mod. 19 Dec 2011 01:59 So with the full gut, I cut the end cap off, does the end baffle pull out and that's it? I've been searching for hours and quite honestly it's hard to follow.
  4. '04 exhaust mod. 18 Dec 2011 21:53 Okay, I got a small light and can see that there is mesh behind the 2 straight through holes. I still to know the deal for the 2 obstruced holes.
  5. '04 exhaust mod. 18 Dec 2011 19:02 Just got new to me '04 that is stock with less than 5K miles. I've read all the exhaust posts and need a little clarificaton. My first thought was to drill out the (4) holes in the muffler end. First question: 2 of the…
  6. frame sliders 6 Feb 2011 18:33 I did the search thing and saw no mention of the Trex no cut frame sliders. If someone has seen these installed please offer your opinion. Thanks.
  7. Feel like I'm getting lowballed by insurance 6 Oct 2010 22:59 I have been in your situation; and I'm mad as hell again just thinking about POS insurance adjusters. Bargain for all the bucks you can get, agree to that figure, THEN tell them you want the wrecked bike. Part it out…
  8. EBAY Hong Kong Pazzo lever lookalikes 3 Oct 2010 02:41 I just received the Hong Kong lookalikes for my '07 VFR and can not tell any difference in fit and finish from the high price ones. I paid something like $64.00 and received via airmail-registered mail in 6 business…
  9. 6th Gen Brake Bleeding 28 Sep 2010 02:11 Until you have to rebuild a master cylinder on a LeMans and then purge air from the linked brake system, you do not know hell on earth. Several documented divorces and untold liters of brake fluid. I guess my question;…
  10. 6th Gen Brake Bleeding 27 Sep 2010 22:02 Man, why did I ever read this post? Sometimes it is better to just be ignorant. I just picked up a '07 with very low mileage, but flushed the brakes anyway. Without a manual I just flushed the brake lines like any other…
  11. Newbie sprocket question 25 Sep 2010 22:49 Not sure how this site treats referrals. To answer your question; Sprocket Center. I ordered online and had the sprocket (2) days later in Raleigh. Thay's about as good as it gets.
  12. Newbie sprocket question 24 Sep 2010 02:29 To update; I went with the all steel +2 rear sprocket. I as a rule gear all my bikes down, but must admit, I don't know why these bikes don't come with the 45 rear sprocket. Much smoother around town and really don't…
  13. Newbie sprocket question 19 Sep 2010 22:05 That was my point. I have no intentions of going to a 520 setup. Just trying to understand how riders could destroy the Vortex aluminum in just a few thousand miles. The one on the back of my FZ1 has been abused; mostly…
  14. Newbie sprocket question 18 Sep 2010 13:42 I did the search thing concerning replacing stock rear sprocket with an aftermarket, and was surprised by some of the post(s). Specifically, the riders saying that the Vortex aluminum sprockets were a problem. It wasn't…
  15. Newbie sprocket question 18 Sep 2010 01:27 Just picked up my new to me '07 VFR 800. I'm looking at going +2 on rear sprocket. Bike only has 2500 miles. My question; is the stock chain long enough to accomodate the bigger rear sprocket? BTW you can see I'm new to…
