All 14- Where are the Older VF's hiding? [image: View Post]smackdoogle, on 15 January 2011 - 12:00 AM, said: So I'm window shopping for a KR or even a KF that is restorable and it'd be one thing if there were some but with ridiculous prices but I can't seem to…
- VF500 Exhaust Yes please keep us posted. Plus any info you have gathered on diameters of pipes and the incremental step ups you plan would be great since I want to attempt this on my VF1000R. Thanks
- VF1000R Ohlins forks? That was just the measurement I took in my jammies with the bike fully loaded so I didn't account for sag. Jaimie is NOT the first guy who I have heard talk about the Ohlins that way. My last bike had reworked forks and…
- VF1000R Ohlins forks? [image: View Post]Kel, on 01 January 2011 - 09:14 AM, said: I used an RC51 lower as an upper. It gave me the proper drop down. My R sits exactly the same height as stock. You can't get this drop with the stock 51 upper.…
- VF1000R Ohlins forks? [image: View Post]JamieDaugherty, on 01 January 2011 - 08:59 AM, said: I think you'll find that the answer is no - they will not work. It's really not the fully extended dimension but rather fully compressed. That's…

- VF1000R Ohlins forks? I was assuming custom triples with this deal so I am not worried about using the donor triples. I had forgotten about the clip ons. That will require some thought. I just don't want it to be a situation where there is…
- VF1000R Ohlins forks? I was looking at possibilities for the VF1000R. They are very long front forks. I just went and measured mine and they were about 33" = 838mm. Ohlins universal are 800mm = 31.5". Would that be too short? This is just…
- Another Source For '86-'87 Fairings They must be having issues. I tried clicking on links on their site and got blank pages with some code on it.
- VF1000R [image: View Post]vfrrider, on 16 December 2010 - 08:04 PM, said: I belive a 5" with a 180 is pushing it, maybe a 170, or go to a 5.5". You can get a DIY header kit made of bits and pieces and tack it together.…
- VF1000R Yes I am contemplating a full exhaust. I mentioned the RC51 since I figured I could get an aftermarket full system and then just bend and change what needed to be done. After reading what Jamie said it seems like this…
- VF1000R [image: View Post]unbalanced, on 15 December 2010 - 06:29 PM, said: Is that you Dave? I meant to get back to you.. As for exhausts, both VF1000RS and Kel have made their own and you can search through their threads. The…
- VF1000R I have searched a lot on this site for information on the VF1000R and have not seen anyone attempt any exhausts for this or at least not discuss it. I have seen the build threads which are great, but not too much…
