  1. Quicker Handling 8 Dec 2020 17:49 In an effort to quicken handling I am considering either raising the front forks slightly in the triple clamps or putting a spacer between the top of the rear shock and the frame. Is one preferable to the other? Thanks
  2. Bike is Reluctant to Turn 9 Nov 2020 20:45 Sorry, that was a typo. Should be 36 psi, not 26.
  3. Bike is Reluctant to Turn 9 Nov 2020 15:01 Thanks to everyone that helped with my turning issue. I changed the suspension settings and got a BIG improvement. It is a work in progress but here are the settings I have right now: Front preload-3 lines showing,…
  4. Bike is Reluctant to Turn 2 Nov 2020 12:26 The bike had well worn Michelin Pilot Road II tires on it when I bought it. To be honest I don't remember struggling with it with those worn tires like I am now with the Dunlops. What type of tires are better handling…

  8. Need New Tires 16 Jan 2020 13:56 I need new tires for my 2010 1200. If I had to choose between handling and tread life my priority is a tire that makes the bike handle well. What is your pick? Thanks
  9. Wanted-Stock VFR1200 Seat 9 Sep 2019 15:18 Let me know if you have one you'd like to sell or trade. I have an excellent Puig dark smoke windscreen and/or stock clip ons to trade.
