Last 50 of 86- 4Th Annual Hog Tie - Sep 25-27 Imma comin! Taking off and heading straight to 341. Hoping to meet you guys there.
- Hog Tie '15 Tee Shirts Sounds alot like something I said once...
- 4Th Annual Hog Tie - Sep 25-27 Can I bring this? [image: 944%201_zpsolazdu7q.jpg]
- Strange Bleep Sound From Front End - Progress... That's the flapper, bro. Go in, remove all things flapper, then it will be gone. The air box is very noisy on the 6th gen, but I am 100% sure that is the flapper "gulping". Once I removed the valve, lines, yada yada the…
- Before You Go Get That Next Rocket Ship... Ironic how he states twice that 600s can pretty much go just as fast as literbikes, yet he singles out only literbikes as being too fast. However, if I were to get a literbike to keep, it would be a twin, so I could…
- Whats This Wheel Off? Those who don't go on VFRW just recently missed the "Sunofwolf" era. Those who know, know. Those who don't, consider yourselves lucky.
- "winter Is Here" ... 'oil Question" 94-97 VFR's run very cool, and the temp gauges are pessimistic. I replaced my thermostat when I first got my 95, but to my dismay, found that the temp needle didn't do anything different than before. Feel the hoses that…
- Center Stand Or Pitbull? It's a matter of geometry and weight distribution. Side stand is more stable.
- Center Stand Or Pitbull? Honestly, I use both. I considered taking off my center stand, but it has many uses. Weight is a non-issue, it's so low you wont ever notice a difference. It makes the bike 'slimmer' for the garage, and makes…
- Exhaust Modification-muffler Bypass: Pics Added It was a tight fit (giggity), I had to force the inner one in. Try different brands. Just know when you find one that fits, your about 5 mins from glory. Giggity.
- Oil Change Interval...8K? You don't remove any panels on the 6th gen to do an oil change? THIS I MUST hear more about. I take off the entire left side (easy) and that little triangular painted left corner dash piece (PITA). Break it down for me,…
- Thoughts On 4Th Gen Vfr As A Track Bike? 'sorry' has negative connotations when used in conversation, especially during a sale, or in this case a very important interwebz disagreement. 'i apologize' does not brood negativity, and should be used in sensitive…
- Thoughts On 4Th Gen Vfr As A Track Bike? I traded a 4th gen for a cbr900, no comparison. The cbr is featherweight by comparison. Also handles better and power is much better. The old 919 engine is bulletproof and torquey to boot.
- Exhaust Modification-muffler Bypass: Pics Added Loosen and lower/remove exhaust. Remove heat shields. Put larger holesaw around outer tips and drill circle around them. Take smaller holesaw and fit it between the two tips. Drill until outer tip is removeable. Install…
- Oil Fiter Options For The Honda. Go to Wal-Mart for your oil related needs. Oil is always about 30% cheaper, and purolator filters are $3. It's just the sad truth.
- Best 8Th Gen Vfr Review Ever - Hell No, Best Bike Review Ever The Aussies know how to do bike reviews. Gizmag has Loz, one of my favorite rider/reviewers, and possibly some of the best bike reviews on YouTube. Too bad, though, there aren't too many videos.
- Caption "insert Here" "Well I'll be...they are brass."
- Exhaust Ideas For My Rwb Vtec I gutted my stock exhaust, but not as a means to an end. I still plan on getting an aftermarket kit--holding out for Leo Vince that was offered possibly. Partial gutted stock exhaust does sound quite good, however, and…
- Change Oil Before, Or After Winter? Dirty oil is acidic, best to change it. No need to change again until you hit your mileage limit/next winter.
- Ethanol Free Gas Is Magic! In my 94, I've never noticed any discernable difference in power/mpg between pure and e10. And the pure gas pumps had their own nozzle. Might try it in the 07, but not expecting much difference, besides paying 25 cents…
- Oil Cooler Upgrade. Effectiveness Q's Do you know how warm it runs when operating? Does the fan kick on? Thermostat work? I ask this because oil in a water-cooled engine is not so much a player on temp control as an air/oil cooled one, and the front-mounted…
- Replacement Horn When a car is merging into your lane and about to run you off the road? Middle finger not effective. Stock horn is barely noticeable at highway speeds, much less a silent hand.
- Replacement Horn I'm considering upgrading the horn on my bike too (6th Gen) and I'm a little confused mostly due to lack of experience. I'm pretty hopeless when it comes to my hands. I know electronics, but always scared I'm going to…
- '97 Can I Lower By Rotating Triangle Plates? I am fairly certain the 4th gens are designed to work just in one way, otherwise it will hit the swingarm/not align. The 5th/6th gens have a more triangled layout that can be flipped. You will have to go aftermarket.
- Is A Hot Frame Normal? Yes the frame get real hot. Did on my 4th gen, and my 6th is hot as well. Like, don't touch hot.
- Where To Purchase Chain Adjustment Spanner Wrench Google search next time, don't use the forum's search engine. Partzilla, BikeBandit, Mason City Honda, etc...
- Techspec Tank Grips On 02+ Vfr800 They only state they work on the 5th gen, but they looked very good on my 4th gen as well. Now they are on my 6th and yes, it's not perfect, but still looks operator.
- Exhaust Modification-muffler Bypass: Pics Added I did this type of mod and I love the sound. It's reminiscent of a v8 though flowmasters, since its chambered after all. It also drones a little and sounds better at certain rpms...like flows. I seriously think it…
- New Red Led Tail Lights... Ya Gotta Be Blind Not To See Me Stopping They are plug and play, just make sure you test out LEDs before you put everything back together, as they are picky about their orientation in the socket. Sometimes you have to unplug and 180* before it works.
- Cbr 650F Could This Be The Next Sport Tourer For Honda? Or The Perfect Bike? theelf could this be the perfect bike? Haha. Hahahahahaha. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! You said perfect bike. Lolz.
- 2007 Vfr800 Delkevic My tiff with Delkevic is that their exhaust looks weird with the lines of the tail. I emailed them, and asked if they could make the slip-on with the tri-ovals, and they said their tri-ovals are too long and would stick…
- How To Wheelie Vfr 800 Pulled an accidental power wheelie while coming onto a military installation, right inside the gate. Crossed VTEC, gave her the schtick, and pulled a 1-2 foot wheelie in front of a line of cars. I B-lined it to work,…
- Replacement Horn Just bought mine for $10--he accepted my offer. I like that feature.
- Hog Tie Attendance List Yokel Just quote and fill in your name below- 1) Yokel 2)this guy 3) Sent from my fancy telly.
- Hard Time Finding Slip On Dude, there are slip ons all over ebay and just do a search on exhaust manufacturers and visit all their sites, almost all of them make a system for the 6th gen. BTW, I think the FMF system is awesome for the 6th…
- Best Commuting/touring Tires? Those q2s look like they have a couple thousand left in them, how much you planning on riding before then? Mine lasted 4.5k miles and still had more life but the front started to cup Sent from my fancy telly.
- Best Commuting/touring Tires? Continental Contimotions have been great for the price. I have over 4k on them and they still look great, with no square-ing off. They aren't the stickiest tires but Ive gone edge to edge without any problems. One of…
- Tank Wobbles On 94 Vfr 750 Yes, mine has 2 as well. The tank needs them to stay still. A parts fiche would probably have them. Check the rollers too on the front side of the tank, they don't always like to stay in place during install and could…
- 3Rd Annual Hog Tie 2014 Event Thread - September 12 - 14, 2014 Rush2112 You mean you didnt turn around and do 123 again the first time? No, it was on Saturday when I still had to make a 2.5 hr ride home and I was beat from hanging off like a monkey all day, and didn't want to hit…
- Wow, It Felt Nice To Get Out! [image: 48214608.jpg] Just jokin, I took my first long ride this weekend and it was great. Good to be back, America.

- Spark Plugs Ok guys thanks. I'll leave these for the winter and order a new set. Damn expensive plugs though. $120 for a set of 4 is a little too much. I hope they fix the mpg issue. Uhh....NGK? I would never, in my entire…

- Tentative: Hog Tie 2014 I would go but its so far away...
- Re-Locating To Co. Springs You turkey. Now who's gonna put together the Arkanoid rally?
- When Butt And Asphalt Meet.. If she doesn't have insurance then your not getting any money unless your policy covers it. If you don't have it already, you should get an uninsured/under-insured policy to cover situations like this. Here in Arkansas…
- Concept Naked Bike Vfr800 Vtec-- Did You See It? There was a thread about this like a month ago...
- Hog Tie Duration (2014) I got a free one night stay for next time. JEALOUS MUCH? How come every time I show up to the hub I get free handouts? I'll prob do Wed-Sat. The leather pajamas hang in wait.
