  11. 2014 Vfr800F Test Ride 11 May 2014 15:34 I think for an exhaust like that the header collector would have to be reversed other wise it may have 2 180 deg bends but it defiantly looks better. the way it should have came

  19. Forums 8 Nov 2013 23:04 I would think it makes sense to call it a 7th gen and recategorize the 1200 as a 1st gen 1200. I agree. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Stator Bbq Fix 29 Oct 2013 10:49 Most of that flat part will be blocked by the stator harness, no? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Stator Bbq Fix 12 Oct 2013 13:08 After looking at the oil circuit what about t'ing off the cooler return using a smaller diameter hose or restrictor & tap into the stator cover so the factory pressure is still intact?
  22. Vfr848Rr Anyone ? 3 Aug 2013 00:19 I know I'm late to this but has the st xx00 or vfr1200 piston or crank specs been checked? It would seem natural to stick with the v engine family.
  23. 2Nd Better Than 1St For Tight Maneuvers? 16 Jul 2013 11:53 I've tried 1st & 2nd & have found the same results. For me 1st is just to touchy. It's not just the vfr I've realized it on either, my dads '11 C14 & '07 M109r & a gs125 that was used in my msf course. Some people like…

  26. Hid Projector Headlights 24 May 2013 18:07 Very cool! Where did you get the covers for the grips & do they fit on stk bars?
  27. Hi-Viz Helmets and clothing 24 May 2013 18:00 ^ +1
  28. Hid Projector Headlights 13 May 2013 11:55 That's a massive amount of light! Pretty cool. I was wondering how well the bi-xenon would look with the factory high beams & I like it. Can you run just the halo's while riding?
  29. Some wallpapers 28 Apr 2013 00:49 Is the last pic really from an engine ????? If so from what? It's crazy! Yes, it's from the RC40/NR. Second pic in the opening message of this topic. Thanks. That's incredible. I thought a vw vr6 & Audi w12 was wild!
  30. Some wallpapers 27 Apr 2013 19:51 hmm, that's what I did. pulled them from my gallery after clicking on the "my media button" OK, copy and paste seems to work [image: gallery_13146_5748_53184.jpg] [image: gallery_13146_5748_47944.jpg] [image:…

  32. Working On The 94 15 Apr 2013 14:27 Thanks guys, I love working on this bike and can't wait to get more parts on. It has been dropped on both sides, I have fiber glassed the left side so it won't fall apart. Once I decide on a color (more than likely red)…
  33. Working On The 94 15 Apr 2013 02:10 Much nicer with the 800 rim. Is that a maverick I see poking its nose out?
  34. Edam? That Is Cheese No? Picture Heavy..... 14 Apr 2013 12:16 Ok, I'll bite. The pacifier on the key ring serves what purpose? Thanks for the photos, they were nice, and I learned some as I enjoyed them. Rubber side down, Dave +1

  36. Aftermarket Header Install - 5Th Gen! 10 Apr 2013 00:08 Yes, the silver or copper stuff works great. I use it at work when reassembling exhaust or chassis parts on cars/trucks
  37. I Dropped Her! 4 Apr 2013 15:02 Asv f3's are awesome levers. I installed them after my bike was backed into at work. I think I made a thread for it? http://www.vfrdiscus...p/?fromsearch=1
  38. Cleaning Techniques? 4 Apr 2013 01:14 Purple power & a stiff bristle scrub brush
  39. Help, Need Chain Lube Advice... 30 Mar 2013 17:53 I've been using the chain wax for the last year. I spray it every 500 mi & clean it with wd-50 every 1500 just like the manual says. It does pick up quite a bit of crap & is hard to clean off.
  40. Rapid Bike Fuel And Ignition Controller For 2007 Vfr800 Vtec 28 Mar 2013 14:47 How much do you think straps will help lower the 60ft? Edited March 28, 2013 by Grayv3

  42. Vfr 800 Led Auxiliary Lighting 21 Mar 2013 10:36 I thought about those when i was working in central jersey next to farm land but couldnt accept having lights hanging off the bike. What about hid's with projectors? It gives more light, around the same draw & all fits…
  43. Graphics Kits For 6Th Gen (02-09) 18 Mar 2013 20:03 Not a bad set

  45. Worthless "farkle" - Rear Cowl Plug Aquired! 6 Mar 2013 15:54 Oh, I thought it was a 6th gen tail, sorry.
  46. Worthless "farkle" - Rear Cowl Plug Aquired! 6 Mar 2013 11:40 Does that prevent the cowl from rubbing the fairing?
  47. 6th Generation Sprocket Guide 29 Jan 2013 13:44 SEBSPEED I changed my gearing to -1/+1 a couple thousand miles ago and I absolutely LOVE it. That would be 15/44 on my 05. By going that route what are the benefits?
  48. If You Have One Of My Custom Clutch Covers... 26 Jan 2013 20:19 I love the white/black
  49. Sport Riding Techniques 13 Jan 2013 05:32 Sorry to hear you fell. At least the bike is repairable & you're ok. Thanks, I picked it when it was recommended to me because I asked about tire traction & found out I was just riding over myself. I've noticed some…
  50. Sport Riding Techniques 13 Jan 2013 04:45 It usually feels a little more nimble during those first 3 miles then stays at a consistent feel. I bought it new with 0 mi on the clock
