  1. LED Headlight bulbs r/r issues? 8 Jul 2018 00:28 Quick little update, bulbs installed. Was kinda a pain as these things weren't clocked level for sure, lots of bending and tweaking of the mount tabs. Once installed I noticed the light is certainly "whiter", its hard…
  2. LED Headlight bulbs r/r issues? 15 Jun 2018 22:02 adkfinn, 6/14/2018 at 9:38 AM Small add here: The one thing we haven't discussed in this thread yet is the newer LED projectors that have hit the market:…
  3. LED Headlight bulbs r/r issues? 11 Jun 2018 19:29 MaxSwell, I'd be willing to bet my r/r is a Ricks as well, have to check. What are the odds MellowDude still has some of those blocks ? Along with the VFRness I actually made my own "grounding kit" ran like 5 different…
  4. LED Headlight bulbs r/r issues? 11 Jun 2018 16:29 Those look nice as well fonque. I'm not sure what the decoder is for, but can I assume its not needed? Are you using them with the projector globes still, light in the pic looks crisp? How long have you been running…
  5. LED Headlight bulbs r/r issues? 10 Jun 2018 21:15 Sorry Kevin, my mind blended the posts, I see that as I scroll back. My mind, it gets losts...often.
  6. LED Headlight bulbs r/r issues? 10 Jun 2018 20:32 adkfinn you are correct on the r/r function, exactly why i was worried. Until Kevin point out I assumed all LED bulb were less wattage than their filament cousins. Even looking at the amazon link he sent, its hard to…
  7. LED Headlight bulbs r/r issues? 10 Jun 2018 03:50 Kevin, I know as well the downfalls of the r/r, think i'm running a MOSFET one now, still factory plugs running a VFRness as well. adkfinn, you certainly weren't rambling, good info on the bulbs to start. Sometimes I…
  8. LED Headlight bulbs r/r issues? 9 Jun 2018 23:37 It been forever since I posted (or rode), and I'm certainly late to the game on LED headlight bulb upgrades but that just means more data now right? So its at the point where H4's gotta go, but my charging system has…
  9. Dyna beads fail with pics 25 May 2016 13:21 rhoderage, 05/24/2016 at 2:56 AM I think VFR350 hit it; if your tire is wet on the inside then the dynabeads are going to stick to the moisture and fail to do their job. Whether you add baby powder or just dry the inner…
  10. Dyna beads fail with pics 24 May 2016 05:57 i'm gonna throw this out there, i could see the inside grooves being an issue, but the inside rubber is tacky as well. on my mountain bike to keep the tubes from sticking to the inside of the tires i coat the inside of…

  12. We're back - woot! 11 May 2016 19:09 does your mobile device have a cache you can clear as well? history and cache may be seperate.
  13. How to lift the tank 11 May 2016 06:33 unbolt the front and lift from the front, at least in the 5th gen the rear of the tank is hinged and will pivot.
  14. Clutch Replacement 10 May 2016 18:32 this is true, i split the cases the other night and decided cleaning the gasket looked like the worst part so i did that first, it was a pain and only got as far as getting the gasket off and clean. i was ablt to just…
  15. Who makes batteries for NAPA? 10 May 2016 04:45 http://www.bobistheoilguy.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=1801641 kinda an old thread but may shed light...
  16. What's The Hottest 5Th Generation Can? Post Your Pics.... 14 Apr 2016 20:53 so here is what i measured using industry standards, 85 db @idle about 93 db @3500 no load for a yoshi.
  17. The Official Oil Thread 13 Apr 2016 22:00 so I've always run hondaline blend w/o moly, recently started using mobile m110 filter (larger than the m108 use the same on my car), would it be wrong to try a full syn now? be curious to see if it shifts any…
  18. What's The Hottest 5Th Generation Can? Post Your Pics.... 13 Apr 2016 21:25 Epyon007 I'll be the jerk that resurrects this thread. How loud are the Yoshimura RS3 cans? I have a D&D right now and its a tad too loud. They are fine on my RC51 but too much to ride everyday to work on and tour. How…
  19. Gone Intercepting 1 Oct 2015 20:02 i like the double bubble recycling! any chance you could send me a couple close up picks of the mounting hardware. be a good way to recycle a few windscreen i got laying around. looks like it was a good time…
  20. Merits Of Abs And/or Linked Brakes In The Corners 28 Sep 2015 01:10 I do miss being able to drag the rear brake a bit to help lean in the corners but i was impressed or felt more sure footed when caught in rain.
  21. Aftermarket Pipes For Gen 8 27 Sep 2015 04:40 Now i think the only reason i even brought it up is because of the silver color, not so much the angle. if the tip matched the wheel color or was just solid black i never would have noticed it, but man i like that white…
  22. Aftermarket Pipes For Gen 8 25 Sep 2015 22:14 I didnt realize the proximity to the bag could be an issue till you pointed that out.
  23. Aftermarket Pipes For Gen 8 25 Sep 2015 06:02 that white is sweet looking bike. can you flip the silver tips of that slipon so the longer is on top?
  24. What's The Hottest 5Th Generation Can? Post Your Pics.... 24 Sep 2015 03:44 I should get an updated pic, looks even better with black wheel lugs now.
  25. What's The Hottest 5Th Generation Can? Post Your Pics.... 24 Sep 2015 03:33 I'm biased but for a standard mount this cant be beat [image: post-24095-0-85716900-1443065579.jpg] [image: post-24095-0-28872100-1443065792.jpg]
  26. Another Airbox Mod Thread I Know.......but Whats The Best One To Do,01 Vfr800 21 Aug 2014 03:50 Plastic doesn't retain heat quite like metal, not sure thermal wrapping helps much in this case maybe if it was a longer track, think our in box heat soak is minimized.
  27. Tar Snakes 15 Aug 2014 10:07 The crack filler snakes certainly seem slippery on hot sunny days. If those are road snakes what do you call those popped rubber pythons on concrete roads....
  28. Continental Recall 13 Aug 2014 20:09 FYI I installed a set of RA2's this spring, although not specifically listed I decided to follow up with Conti as my front has been consistantly losing a couple psi and my bike has had some odd handling issues, feeling…
  29. New Red Led Tail Lights... Ya Gotta Be Blind Not To See Me Stopping 1 Aug 2014 03:24 Correct me if i'm mistaken, but the stock bulbs are clear, what is the advantage of red led over a regular white in this case? Bright is always good..
  30. Another Bright Idea For My 5Th Gen Viffer.... 21 Jul 2014 14:38 Those PIAA bulbs look nice. I run and am happy w my Osram night racer plus, look the same as those night breakers without the clear band, so the night racers are all blue tint but are white when lit. No one has ever…
  31. Spare Helmet In A Top Rack Box ? 21 Jul 2014 13:07 Yeah if thats cushioned lined its a start, thanks. Now how to keep it from bouncing. Thought of a web bunging but rather not drill holes thru the case for anchors. The one downside to the Givi, few interior point to…
  32. Spare Helmet In A Top Rack Box ? 21 Jul 2014 12:16 Anyone carry a helmet in a topcase while riding? If so how'd you keep it from bouncing and getting marred? Any nifty adhesive pouches to put your phone in or a way to secure it in the case as well?
  33. Shawnee Forest/southern Il Riding Recommendations 2 Jul 2014 19:04 We have loose plans but are heading to the southern part of IL for some riding around the Shawnee forest. Any advice or tips? Certainly not against slighty drifting into neighboring states either.
  34. Rear Seat Cowl Mod After Givi Rack 29 Jun 2014 08:56 I was unsure when ordering my topcase, i envisioned the 55l looking like a pop-up camper levitating behind the bike but it doesnt look that way at all in the pics here. I pulled the trigger on a 45l plus it was $100 or…
  35. Rear Seat Cowl Mod After Givi Rack 28 Jun 2014 05:24 Saoirse32, Keep an eye on eBay, cheap ones pop up once in awhile. I cut mine and I'm no perfectionist, measure, mark carefully and cut slowly. [image: Sierra.jpg] Zoom, I'd like to see the big trunks if you don't mind…
  36. Who Knew It Was The Tire? 21 Jun 2014 20:07 I did 5mm few hundred miles before tire swap and wonder if i wasted time now, i mean she flops fast now, have to watch low speed stuff. Have yet to be able to tell on higher speed twitchiness, need more seat time. New…
  37. Wtf Is This? Gross Clutch Resevoir 11 Jun 2014 09:35 So new line, m/c rebuild kit and rebuilt slave.....smooth! It feels "almost" like riding with the bleeder valve open.
  38. Gutted Stock Exhaust Too Loud 8 Jun 2014 07:20 If you can pack it somehow but think steelwool will burn or blow out as capn stated glass packing holds up well. If you can get cheap oem's and just start with smaller holes drilled to get some sound back, just not as…
  39. Going straight 8 Jun 2014 07:02 Beyond that next is square swingarm, pivot play issue?
  40. Going straight 8 Jun 2014 03:33 More reaching, if you jack up the front end does it favor any side with no load?
  41. Going straight 8 Jun 2014 00:06 This is reaching to but is something dragging on the brakes? My front end did odd things if the pressure was low on my last set of tires.
  42. Playing With Plastidip (Pictures Are Large) 3 Jun 2014 03:38 The peg brackets look alright but the red wheel doesnt match well ( think that was stated) unless you plan on spraying over the red plastic the same. Just my opinion, never seen plastidippaint in person.
  43. Hog Tie Gear 31 May 2014 22:57 Is there a thread that defines where these bigger group rides are and approx dates?
  44. Before I Buy A Two Brothers Black Series Exhaust, Any Other Suggestions? 31 May 2014 03:52 Did you get a full system or just the slipon?
  45. Wtf Is This? Gross Clutch Resevoir 30 May 2014 05:18 So i cleaned up the slave, i was surprised how much the piston was pitted, had i known I'd have replaced it. It had a little wear where it must have been binding. Got that back on, new braided line on and i went to…
  46. Another Airbox Mod Thread I Know.......but Whats The Best One To Do,01 Vfr800 26 May 2014 00:46 People spend alot of time and money just to make there bike sound different according to these threads, a free one to mess with doesn't hurt.
  47. Another Airbox Mod Thread I Know.......but Whats The Best One To Do,01 Vfr800 25 May 2014 08:50 Little update. So I have tested various configurations with the airbox, including deflapped then added cutting the snorkel flush front. Beginning of this season I went all out pulling the snorkel and also removing the…
  48. Sprocket Sizes - Decisions Decisions 24 May 2014 02:18 Years back i went +2 in the back mainly for stop and go with a passenger. Been happy with it since, no install issues and my speedo seems spot on vs gps. Now and then i hunt for 7th but it has decent pull in 6th.
  49. Sprint Air Filter? I Don't Think So... 23 May 2014 05:01 I calculated how much surface area open to flow that pipercross has and although more than other filters those grates cover alot more than you think....
  50. Another Vf500 Engine's Demise 13 May 2014 21:24 My OCD would force me to spend intimate time with a dremel, fine flapper wheel and a beverage with that, good times! Hard to work so close to the valve seat though, would have to be carefull. Speaking of valve seat,…
