All 41- New Vfr800 Vtec Will Be Introduced At Eicma. So are we going to have to cut holes and modify coolant reservoirs to mount frame sliders on this gen too?
- '85 Vf1000R For Sale In My Town There's a lot of want right there.

- Vfr Can't Keep Up With V-Rod? I was actually looking for a Buell when I found "Cindy". Would still like to have one, but I don't consider a Buell a "harley". I'm only 54 now, so I consider myself a little young for a HD cruiser :happy: but if I ever…

- Vfr Can't Keep Up With V-Rod? LOL... I posted this up at work and then got called on two field surveys. I'm pretty surprised at the amount of responses. I really just wanted to know about cornering ability of the V-rod cause I just can't understand…
- Vfr Can't Keep Up With V-Rod? This has been bugging me since last Wednesday night... Now, let me preface this post with the disclaimer that I'm no expert rider. My '01 is my first "sport bike", new to me last spring, but I've been riding this and…

- Best Place to Get Screws and Such My bike has the classic symptoms of stupid PO... There's missing body screws here and there, a front fender screw missing, rear cowl missing a screw, etc. etc. Where's the best place to look for odds and ends like this?…
- Two Brothers Exhaust - Is this normal? [image: Posted Image]
- Two Brothers Exhaust - Is this normal? Man, I hope this isn't a stupid question, but is this pipe supposed to be open all the way thru like this? The catalytic converter has been gutted, so I'm suspicious of everything... [image: Posted Image]
