All 28- I've Got An 8 Spoke Wheel Coming... ...what To Do...? [image: View Post]WingZer0n, on 16 June 2011 - 10:08 AM, said: Just checking guys is the 8 spoker a direct fit to Gen 6 swingarm? Yes. The 8-spoker has hub cutouts to let it clear exposed nuts on the inside of the cush…

- Carbon heat shield Oh, man, I want that exhaust setup! That is pimptastic.

- Anyone with a MRA SpoilerScreen Windshield? FWIW, i was ordering Genmar risers from Twisted Throttle, yesterday. While I was in there, I threw in the Givi touring screen. I have a problem with spontaneous purchasing. I bought my 2004 VFR last week on a whim.…
- Rear Hugger - Harris vs. Powerbronze is your bike an VFR 800 with ABS? I noticed that some huggers weren't for the 800A. You feel that you got good quality out of that RedFox? i just bought a 2004 800A and am looking for a low-cost-but-good hugger. EDIT:…
- 6th gen solo racks for sale Ah, I see. Well, it would be a nice add-on. I may try to jigsaw some plate aluminum and use hand files to fit something. it's a pretty low priority. getting out KLRs ready for a long CDT trip is more pressing right now.…
- 6th gen solo racks for sale I just bought a 2004 with a rack like this installed. Unfortunately, on my bike, the rear passenger pegs have been removed and it is a solo seater. But, I need to keep the grab rails on, because of the hole under the…

- Rear Wheels/tires, The End All Discussion I am wondering what the better solution would be: 1. use a spacer between my Gen 6 rear wheel and my Gen 3 SSA hub interface 2. Dremel the Gen 6 rear wheel mating surface to clear the exposed bolts coming out of the gen…
- Vtec Shock Options So, it looks like my options are: 1. Ohlins S46DR1S @ ~$750 2. Try to swap the Hyperpro in my Gen 3, if the bearings can be made to fit. Cost: only time 3. Respring/revalve the stock Showa @ ~$300 with Racetech forum…
- Anyone with a MRA SpoilerScreen Windshield? Anyone with the Givi that is available from Twisted Throttle?
- Vtec Shock Options Thanks for that info. It's weird to me, the new 2004 VFR rides as actively as my modified 1993. I didn't get maintenance records from the prior owner. He was the second owner, and only had it for 1,000 miles and one…
- Vtec Shock Options OK, riddle me this: should my aftermarket Hyperpro shock mounted in my 1993 Gen 3 drop into my 2004 Gen 6? If so, i'm done. I'd rather not take both bikes apart and find that it doesn't. I'm sort of lazy that way.…
- I've Got An 8 Spoke Wheel Coming... ...what To Do...? Thanks for the kind offers to take my nasty old 8-spoke wheel that apparently nobody wants. :-| :laughing6-hehe: I found a powdercoater that is right next to my normal bike shop. the shop will pop the tires off the…
- I've Got An 8 Spoke Wheel Coming... ...what To Do...? Arise, sleeping thread! So, I have a beautiful original 1993 VFR Fridge. I also just got an Asphalt 2004 VFR800A. I was trying to get an undertail or high-mount exhaust for my '93 to show off the gorgeous 8-spoker.…
- Anyone with a MRA SpoilerScreen Windshield? I'm very interested in this or others like it, as well. I have a SECDEM touring lip windscreen in Euro smoke grey on my '93. I love it. At 6', it sends the wind right up to the chin bar of my Shoei helmet, and is a very…
- Vtec Shock Options Ryanme17 BoulderGeek I am wondering if this my best/lowest cost solution under $500? I know that stock shocks suck. I gave my KLR Showa away and had a custom shock done by Cogent Dynamics. But, since the VFR isn't going…
- Vtec Shock Options So, i just got a Gen 6 (2004). Prior bike is 1993 VFR750 with Hyperpro that i had custom built with longer pushrod and spring/valving for my riding. Unfortunately, that shock isn't going to fit my 2004, from what I have…
- What did you own before your 6th Gen? First bike was that well-loved classic Yamaha XJ650Rj Seca650, US model. 55,000 on that. then 1991 BMW R100 GS Paris Dakar. 52,000 <-------------------- 1993 VFR750F in pearl crystal white. Still have it, feeling…
- Vtec....something new to add? Thanks for the comments, vanion2. I have always thought that my gen 3 VFR with Hyperpro/Racetech suspension was the best of all worlds for me. I'm much more Sport Touring than SuperSport/Race Replica. I did assume that…
- 5th Gen, Finally Finished... or is it? I just bought an asphalt '04 last night. I decided that the new bike means that I should sell my 1993 with white 8 spoker. These pics make me think that I should swap wheels and powder coat them to match the bikes they…
- Vtec....something new to add? I just bought a Gen 6 last night. It has a PC III in there from the prior owner. I was surprised that WOT performance doesn't seem vastly improved over my carbureted Gen 3 with K&N and 2Bros pipe. Sure, the VTEC…

- Blue Gauges For Less veefer800canuck, on Aug 13 2005, 02:35 PM, said: I would almost guarantee that they are standard incandescent bulbs. Probably a #194 wedge base. You can scroll back up and look for the superbrightled.com link and get…
- Blue Gauges For Less So, what's the word on blue guage mods for Gen 3 1990-1993?
- How to install new fork springs My first point to make is that I do not wish to step on any toes or contradict what has been written here. This is an excellent starting guide. I have had confusion in reading all of the guides and install information…
- How to install an ohlins shock As a newb here, it's great to have your write-up brought to my attention. My new Hyperpro rear shock is being built for me now, and I should be able to install in 2-3 weeks. I hadn't thought that it would be such an…
