  1. Cherohala / Deals Gaps / BlueRidge Oct 12-14 come meet Viethorse!! 7 Oct 2012 13:45 Not sure of my schedule yet, but I'd like to come up and run the Gap with y'all. I wouldn't be able to stay, but being 45 min away from the gap makes it easy. Shoot me a email when you get your schedule planned and I'll…
  2. "How to" Remove your headers 19 Aug 2012 20:55 What are you going to do with the header?
  3. Went riding today, our friend Bill went down. Prayers needed. 20 Jun 2012 06:03 Hurts my heart to hear what occured. Prayers for the both of you, Bill for a speedy and full recovery physically and KG4LHO for peace of mind. We often question ourselves after such events, but know that it was beyond…
  4. Top VFR mod 11 May 2012 11:40 I'd ride it, but like big girls and scooters, I wouldn't want anyone to see me
  5. How old are our VFR owners? 6 May 2012 01:47 Turn 36 in August. Started riding at 8 on a 1981 Honda XR80. Got my first street bike at 17, 83 Harley FXRS ( heavily influenced by my father, he also bought it for me). Rode Harleys most of my adult life except for a…

  8. Setting up shocks/suspension for the first time. 29 Apr 2012 14:17 Being 6'6" and 280 I've adjusted to the stiffest setting on front and rear both and to be honest it's still too soft for aggressive riding. I have racetech 1.1 springs and gold valve on the way for the front forks. I'm…
  9. Engine flat past 10,000 rpm? 15 Apr 2012 13:53 Thanks Mac. I'm heading up to the Gap today with a friend of mine. I know where your talking about now, I used to do work for Rite Aid pharmacies and one of my stores was in Mountain city. Never rode it, but was a nice…
  10. Engine flat past 10,000 rpm? 15 Apr 2012 01:47 I actually notice the fall off in first and second. I haven't twisted that high in 5th or 6th as of yet. I ride twisty roads all the time, and keep it in the 6500 to 10k range. Just happened to be on one of the few…

  12. Engine flat past 10,000 rpm? 14 Apr 2012 14:36 Wasn't trying to bang the limiter, just noticed that it kinda fell off after 10k. I usually shift around there when riding hard, but was wondering If that was the norm. My bikes in the past didn't fall flat like that,…
  13. Engine flat past 10,000 rpm? 14 Apr 2012 12:51 First of all, new to the VFR, Not new to riding. I've noticed the in first and second gear that the power curve goes flat above 10,000 rpm. My question is, is this just the way the power curve runs, or is there…
