All 12- If VFR's last for ever, how come you see so few 4th. gens. on the road? Pittsburgh seems to have a shortage as well. I have seen one 6th gen I believe, and that is it. I will occasionally drop by a local bike night (roughly 400 bikes show up) and still have yet to see one. Still enjoy…

- Replacing wheel bearings/where to buy wheel bearings Thanks. I just called my local shop, wanted 62 bucks for two bearings and seals. That kit has two bearings and seals for 18 plus shipping. Whoa.
- Replacing wheel bearings/where to buy wheel bearings Awesome info. Appreciate it. I'll check out my honda store to see how much their bearing are, might pay more just to get them in there and start riding again. The process doesn't seem too difficult.

- Center-stand components? Does anyone know all of the hardware used for the centerstand on a 96 vfr? I have a stand and the rod that connects underneath the bike, but I need the hardware. From what I can see on those for sale on Ebay there is a…
- 96 suddenly not running. Something interesting happened yesterday, when I attempted to start it up the entire dash would black out or the lights would flicker and blip for a bit. At this point the bike wouldn't even crank, so I checked the…
- 96 suddenly not running. I've had my vfr for about a month, been doing some cosmetic repairs, changed coolant/oil. The previous owner had dropped it twice and then it sat for about two years. Added some fresh gas and used a little carb/injector…
