All 28- Hells Canyon Rally 2011 I tend to agree if your going for a brisk ride you may be dissapointed at the congestion. Iike to look at the bikes and the crowds don't bother me much. I can ride isolated roads any time but you gt to meet som new…

- Anyone with a MRA SpoilerScreen Windshield? We have one on the 6th gen. Lisa likes it better than the ZG touring. At 6'1" I did not feel a huge difference in the two, but at 5'7" Lisa feels a lot of difference.
- Stupid Luggage Question If your asking an opinion? Ok, Those look like shit on a VFR. Buy a vstrom if you want square bags. I have Givi's G35's and they are just tolerable. Sometimes I wish I had poped for the color matched factory hard bags.…

- Event Riders wanted Columbia Gorge You might contact Rose City Motorcycles. A lot of us are already Bike Marshals for NW Triathalons. I have done many events. I don't wish to have fender fluff on the back of my bike. My fluff rides her own VFR800
- GPS's Garmin can take you on some crazy routes as well. So don't follow blindly. But as far as Motorcycle GPS's, get a Zumo. Or use your smart phone with google maps thru bluetooth headset. Keep your phone pluged in or it…
- Controlled Slide? Falls under the catagory of "Had to lay her down" I wonder what dumb ass first uttered those words!!
- Best VFR model At the risk of being stoned. Take at look at the Triumph Sprint ST 955. Slightly lighter than my 6gen VFR, quieter cockpit, way the f**k faster, easy to work on. Factory hard bags you can put a FF helmet into. Slightly…
- Do you want to know why the VFR 1200 is underpowered? I don't really want anyone telling me how much HP to have. They don't limit cars HP, only emissions. I should be able to choose for myself how much horsepower I can afford. And yes I did throw rocks at bee nest's. Fun…
- Car oil in motorcycles, good or bad? [image: View Post]2thdr, on 20 April 2011 - 11:14 AM, said: Last time I bought Rotella T6, it was $18 for a gallon, or $4.50 a quart. Not as expensive as Mobil 1 for sure, but are you suggesting I'm "cheap"? At 3 or 4…

- Is the VFR 800 the ideal bike for me with a passenger ? [image: View Post]Jack, on 12 April 2011 - 08:59 AM, said: I will drive with the wife around 2-3 hours max and she will be on around 30% of the time. I think the FJR and ST are out of the question because of the price.…
- Is the VFR 800 the ideal bike for me with a passenger ? ST 1300 isn't very exciting. [/quote] That realy hurt my ST1300's feelings :(
- Is the VFR 800 the ideal bike for me with a passenger ? I own a Honda ST1300,VFR gen6, and a Triumph Sprint ST955. You solution is the same as mine was..... "if your going your riding your own bike" cost me the VFR that Lisa now rides but it was worth it. We take the ST1300…
- 2006 VFR 800 VTec Jap spec derestrict??? This thread shows the power of the great people at VFRD
- Question on Auto Trans Wow!! I am getting really excited to own a VFR1200DCT. I will probably have to give up the ST1300 but with any luck I can keep the Triumph:)
- Question on Auto Trans Question for 7th gen owners with Auto trans. I am really considering this bike with Full Auto next year. Can you share your impressions for the transmission? Out in the twisties in sport mode? Stop and go traffic? Is it…

- Mobil 1 Racing 4T 10W-40 I have been using Mobil 1 Racing 4T on the St1300 for the last two changes (8k) and have not noticed the difference from the Rotella T I had been using, so from now on the VFR and ST1300 will be getting Rotella T.
- Stuck 6th Gen Oil Filter Gamecock94 I always use a K&N Filter on my bikes (street and track). It has a nut on the end of it for easy on and off. Plus you can drill the nut to wire for trackbikes. More expensive, yes, but I avoid issues like…
