  4. VFR1200F Production Volume 15 Apr 2020 15:55 When Honda did a recall for the driveshaft (for all F and X types between 2010 and 2015), the total number was around 30.000 worldwide. I don't know how many X or F types were involved.

  7. Veefour Electronic Cruise Control, Installed And Tested 9 Apr 2016 17:20 Why don't you mount both units (CC and Oxford switches) next to each other on a small shaped aluminum plate. This way you can have a very professional look of your bike. Some aluminum, a file and some small DIY tools…

  11. Winter Mods 25 Jan 2015 12:03 Bought a set of carbon fiber fairing from german FF Carbon - price was fair however, you still need to carve a few things which Im not happy with. The fact they do not respond my email makes me a bit angry... Also Im in…

  13. Ecu Re-Flash - All 4 Threads Merged 13 Dec 2013 19:08 Today I had my first ride with my re-flashed VFR1200F. Next week a second owner will have his ECU back. A dynorun is planned as well. Once we have the dyno and a "second opinion" from the other owner, I'll give you feed…

  15. Forums 8 Nov 2013 18:47 Now you done it ... :goofy:
  16. Forums 8 Nov 2013 18:43 Wait, were does the RC30 fall then, if the '86-'87 Was Gen 1, '88-'89 Gen 2, '90-'93 Gen 3, what does that make the RC? It was a VFR750R, maybe Gen 0 since it came out first? ('86 in Japan if I remember correct).…
  17. Forums 8 Nov 2013 18:34 Make it easy, like Porsche did with the 911 for the last 50 years and specify type (2.0 l, 2.7 l, S, RS, Carrera, Turbo etc.) VFR 750F-model 1988 VFR 800 - model 1998 - model 2014 VFR1200F-model 2010 etc.
  18. Forums 8 Nov 2013 17:40 It's an 8th gen. Look at the 90-93 vs 94-97 differences and they are different gens.. Same motor different gens. Keep it simple stupid. 8th gen. The 1200 is also a VFR, like it or not. There have been 750, 800 & 1200 cc…
  19. Proto Pic Of Naked Vfr? 8 Nov 2013 17:21 Looks like a Ducati Monster (even with a trellis frame). Reminds of the time when Ducati copied the VFR 750 F, and named it Paso. Ducati sold only a few thousand, while the VFR 750 F was sold by the ten thousands.
  20. Rear Preload Adjuster Stiff / Frozen Up 27 Sep 2013 19:18 Show your dealer this post (some had 5 (yes 5) replacements and under warranty) http://www.bikersora...ad.php?t=123606
  21. Brembo? Brembo! 24 Sep 2013 22:01 Very nice! How did you fix the switch for the brakelight?
  22. New Fairings/color Change For Vfr1200 8 Jun 2013 16:38 I would like to paint mine like this Ducati Monster Diesel Edition [image: Ducati-Monster-Diesel-1.jpg]
  23. Vfrd Group Buy...vfr1200 Flash 6 Apr 2013 18:38 Is the price gonna be $500? How would they deal with owners that have aftermarket exhaust? I can't imagine the fuel mapping is one-size-fits-all. It's kinda hard to pull the trigger on pure promises at this point,…
  24. 2013 Vfr1200F 14 Nov 2012 19:58 I think Phobe made a point. Last month I went to see the 2012 model (because I haven't seen one yet) at some dealers. Not 1 has them in stock, neither the Crosstourer.
  25. 2012 VFR1200 not available in Australia yet! 21 Oct 2012 00:44 I wonder what makes motorcycles so expensive in Australia. I my country (Belgium - Europe) we pay 14990€ for a 2012 model, but this includes 21% VAT (some sort of sales tax). Roughly, this is 19.000 Australian dollars…
  26. Huge Biker Protest in Europe 22 Sep 2012 23:00 Watch this
  27. Honda Factory Bags 13 Sep 2012 12:49 One more thing. Prices in the EU have VAT included. The average VAT is 21% (depends on the country). For export they will discount this VAT from your invoice.
  28. Honda Factory Bags 13 Sep 2012 10:12 Accessories4bikes.com doesn't offer shipping outside USA. They are very pricy. From time to time you see them (cheaper) second hand on ebay. Beware, for the topbox you need a special Honda Bracket. Think also about the…
  29. Does the Sixth Gen levers fit a Seventh Gen? 12 Sep 2012 22:56 More info in this topic (#5): http://www.vfrdiscus...age__hl__levers
  30. Removed Honda stickers on front fairing and sides? 5 Sep 2012 22:41 To be honest, I hate most of those visible "information" stickers. First of all - the information itself HISS protection (in Europe) - like thiefs don't know that Honda uses HISS on the old Continent. I think the…
  31. Just had a lowside 30 Aug 2012 11:26 Nothing is more frustrating than a damaged bike (in this case a brand new 2012 VFR 1200 + 15000¤ bike) But it's an experience we all had, if you drive a lot... The engine case cover (and alternator cover on the…
  32. Just had a lowside 29 Aug 2012 23:49 Glad you are ok. Replacing engine cover (see this topic #6). Not a difficult job. Removing the cover was the hardest part (avoiding to do any damage). http://www.vfrdiscus...ver#entry834354 Buy your parts in the UK or…
  33. Spare Bulbs VFR 1200 (2010-11) - travel kit 28 Aug 2012 21:59 You know how it feels. On a trip, in the Middle on Nowhere, one of your light brakes down. No shops, no proper information, it's always good to have some (correct) spare parts with you. So I made a list of all the spare…
  34. Repair parts OEM accessories - found them! 4 Aug 2012 15:52 Honda OEM part numbers have a lot of information you can use. But you have to know how to read them. This PDF file for a CBR 600 RR/05 has all the information you need. Look at page 3-2.…
  35. Steering damper on a VFR 1200 - pro's and con's 3 Aug 2012 10:48 A Belgian company (specialized in steering dampers) has brought a steering damper on the market for the VFR 1200. I never had a steering damper on my bikes, so I want to know if it is worth the investment. [image:…
  36. VFR 1200 with �hlins front fork. 30 Jul 2012 20:48 This seems to be a custom (German) made front fork. Check out (and look at the pricetag!!!!) http://vfr-1200-tuni...ning/index.html http://www.oehlins.i...9-10/::525.html (the link says CBR 1000 RR but it is the VFR…
  37. VFR 1200 with �hlins front fork. 30 Jul 2012 13:09 I found this VFR 1200 with Öhlins FGRT front fork. http://vfr-1200-tuni...mg_2513_668.jpg If I remember correctly, this bike belongs to a forum member...and hopefully we can have more pictures and feedback...

  39. Passenger foot pegs to high 29 May 2012 22:32 Try http://www.lsl-motor...e/php/index.php I know they have them for the front footpegs. Maybe they fit the passengers footpegs as well? I checked See page 67 Verstellbare Gelenke (universal adaptor)…
  40. Fuel Range 29 May 2012 21:32 I always compare the VFR 1200 to the most popular Honda commuter bike in Europe, the Honda Deauville NT700V. The Honda Deauville has a V twin engine, cardan and is some 30 kg lighter than the VFR 1200. The fueltank is a…
  41. Repair parts OEM accessories - found them! 21 May 2012 19:58 TiN Nice! wonder if you can build a set of bags from scratch for cheaper. Well, I have some scratches on my left pannier. It frustrates me every time I see it. The only answer I had so far...replace the whole pannier.…

  44. New and bigger OEM Honda Top Box (45 liter) 19 May 2012 18:35 Some information I had from someone the UK. The 2012 45 liter top box is the same as you can buy on the (European model) 2011 CBF 1000. Fits perfect on the VFR 1200 mountain plate.
  45. Going full stealth 19 May 2012 11:56 Love it. What's next? Crankcase - Alternator cover - powdercoated?
  46. New and bigger OEM Honda Top Box (45 liter) 18 May 2012 22:12 You can find it in the French Honda 2012 Catalogue - price 390€...for the "old one" (31 liter) they still ask 745€ http://moto.honda.fr/Mediatheque/Accessoires/2012/#/80/ Can't prove it, but I think they are made by…
