  1. Parkinsons disease 13 May 2012 04:05 A woman was speeding down the highway late for work and gets pulled over by a cop. He takes her info and asks,whats the hurry? She says im late for work,he asked what do you do? She says im an asshole stretcher! He…
  2. VTEC not kicking in... 10 May 2012 07:28 On a side note, how does the gutted exhaust sound? Video? I've been thinking of gutting my stock and seeing how it compares to the leo vince I have now.
  3. How old are our VFR owners? 5 May 2012 15:44 Noobtastic14, on 05 May 2012 - 10:41 AM, said: I'm on the "young and dumb" side of the spectrum. 23 I ride mine like a SPORT-tourer -Drew SPORT being the key word of course.
  4. I need advice post CRRRRRRASH! 3 May 2012 00:16 [image: View Post]NakedViffer, on 02 May 2012 - 06:58 PM, said: GO get your bike, man! $400? I would part that thing out in a heartbeat and make atleast a grand on top of getting the $400 back. The motor alone will…
  5. Need to get my wife in the saddle 1 May 2012 02:04 If she were to start on a 250 it would be a Ninja. I think a lot will change after a few safety courses. (her preference on size of motor, opinion of bike size, opinion of riding position desired) But definitely not her…

  7. Need to get my wife in the saddle 29 Apr 2012 06:18 How about a 2002 Susuki Bandit 600?
  8. DIY Helmet Hangers - saw online somewhere 20 Apr 2012 03:33 Just jumped up and bought four! One for my helmet, the wife's helmet, and each of our favorite jackets! Thanks for the tip!
  9. Need to get my wife in the saddle 17 Apr 2012 23:26 WOW! So many options! Now I want them! As asked before, her issue with the VFR being too big is both weight and definitely seat height. She's only 5'3" 120lbs. so we'll most likely have to lower just about any bike we…
  10. Need to get my wife in the saddle 17 Apr 2012 00:45 After riding as passenger on my 6th gen, my wife has caught the bug. She now wants a bike of her own but can't decide which one she should get. I've tried to get her to consider a VFR but she thinks they're just too big…
  11. She did it! Wife's new ride 16 Apr 2012 23:36 I've been trying like crazy to talk my wife into getting a VFR but she thinks it's too big. She keeps going back to the CBR's R6's and gixxer 600's. Nice bike BTW.
  12. Triple tree cover 14 Apr 2012 03:02 They're kind of pricey but I heard they have quality to back it. There's several goodies on there I've been drooling over for a while.

  14. How long do you stay in the saddle? 12 Apr 2012 00:47 I pulled a 9 hour ride-athon with some riding buddies of mine a few weeks ago. 90% twisties with few stops. The only problem I had was my crotch area and butt took a beating from that super comfy stock seat. No problems…
  15. My first ride on VFR- Short and 2up 10 Apr 2012 23:35 The VFR is the first bike I've had a passenger on. My wife and I also thought it was very comfy. Also with no aftermarket upgrades. Definitely going to have to go for a road trip.
  16. Valve Specs at 24,300 - and a QUICK question ... 5 Apr 2012 02:00 I was actually dreading the day I had to fork over the cash for the pricey valve clearance check on my 6th gen I've heard so much about. But thanks to VFRD I've found it's not something that HAS to be done every 16k…
  17. Then and Now Images 4 Apr 2012 23:15 Awesome pictures! My mouse wheel thanks you! (up...down...up...down...up...down)
  18. First time riding two up... 3 Apr 2012 00:19 I must be honest, I had the mind set that riding with my wife would be fun but not AS fun. I figured we'd have to be sputtering around like the old men on their hogs. Was I surprised when I realized how easy it really…
  19. First time riding two up... 2 Apr 2012 04:58 Update: WHAT A BLAST!!! We had absolutely no problems at all! We agreed we like it best when she has at least one arm around me while going straight. Makes me more comfortable to feel as if she has a good secure hold…
  20. Buddy Dropped My Brand New OEM Side Case... 2 Apr 2012 03:44 I would definitely not make my buddy buy a new set. Accidents happen. I would let him out cheaply and just get them fixed. Would probably just need some sanding and paint.
  21. First time riding two up... 31 Mar 2012 02:09 Great advice! I had no idea about having her look over my inside shoulder in a turn. Also I like the suggestion to have her use one hand on the tank and one around my waist. I think that would be put to good use in…
  22. First time riding two up... 30 Mar 2012 04:11 Well, I finally took the hit and bought my wife all the proper gear to go for a ride with me this weekend. I've never had a passenger on my bike before so I was wondering if there's any advice you experts might have for…
  23. I like my Kitsch... 27 Mar 2012 02:56 If only it came in silver...
  24. Is Honda stupid? How are you supposed to remove the low beam bulb plug? 27 Mar 2012 01:34 Good to see I'm not just ignorant! Took me a good hour and a half!
  25. Warp speed 15 Mar 2012 03:31 My bike just hit 12k last week so maybe it will smooth out in few k. But I think the PCIII is definitely in the Viffer's near future. Until then, I'll have to try and take advice from Mr. Noobtastic and try to time it…
