  1. Possible Servo Motor Removal Unit 22 Aug 2013 17:37 with the PC5, the auto tune module is so damn good. I had my R1 tuned (PC5), added the autotune, and my goodness the throttle is the best thing I've ever experienced. With the auto tune I can now ride different…
  2. Possible Servo Motor Removal Unit 22 Aug 2013 02:31 I would venture to say that your FI light issue is related to the PCV and not the Servo Removal unit. I do not have a PCV on the bike and have never gotten an FI light. I agree. If I remember right, there were some…
  3. Possible Servo Motor Removal Unit 19 Aug 2013 01:43 Installed the plug yesterday. As you can imagine, it was pretty simple. "Plug and play", as they say in the computer technology world. The servo itself is not huge, nor necessarily heavy, but it does take up space that…
  4. Lost A Side Case On My V12 19 Aug 2013 01:34 I can relate to your extreme frustration. I had one of my side cases fall off the shelf that I store them on, when not on the bike. It was a totally innocent accident, but the results were not good. The case landed on…
  5. Possible Servo Motor Removal Unit 17 Aug 2013 00:58 I jumped the gun on this purchase, and have the servo eliminator plug at the house, ready to go. I've had it for about 2 weeks, and just haven't gotten around to installing it. Think I'll give it a go tomorrow. Will…
  6. Steering / Handling 17 Aug 2013 00:54 Wait, what? [image: 2010-Honda-VFR1200F-DCT-9.jpg]
  7. 2010 Vfr1200F Engine Heat Guard 28 Jul 2013 18:43 I have the R&G engine case covers. I originally purchased them to cover the scrapes from a right side low speed / no speed drop when I first purchased the bike. Dumb mistake...dredging up the memory of it is still…
  8. Ordered my Bazzaz Z-Bomb today! 25 Jul 2013 15:03 Is the gear indicator a big deal? NO. Do I sometimes wish it were there? YES...
  9. This Cbr250 Has Peaked My Interest 18 Feb 2013 17:51 The Ninja looks good, and maybe better than the Honda, but in the U.S.A., no FI on the Kawi until this years model. For what it's worth.
  10. Over 90 getting heat only on the soles of my boots 16 Oct 2012 14:05 I thought its already a given that wrapping exhaust pipes is not a good idea because of corrosion (yes, some grades of stainless steel do corrode) and the resulting high heat soak weakening them, IIRC... ......Anyway,…
  11. Convince me.... 12 Oct 2012 16:38 Take this with the proverbial grain of salt...Don't buy a bike based on someone else's preferences. You're the one that's realistically going to spend the most time on it. Of course, everyone's situation is different.…
  12. Convince me.... 12 Oct 2012 13:57 I've a 7th Gen V12. It's a great bike (with some personal mods, in all fairness) For 2-up, my wife greatly prefers it over my former ride, a HD Fat Bob (Dyna) Both equipped with a Corbin Dual Tour. She's been on the…
  13. Here's your sign... 15 Sep 2012 06:38 [image: View Post]gll429, on 05 September 2012 - 11:14 AM, said: [image: View Post]fishbate, on 05 September 2012 - 11:03 AM, said: According to Honda, officially, VFR stands for "VEE FOUR RACING". No joke. yep.. thats…
  14. Just had a lowside 30 Aug 2012 15:29 [image: View Post]ZesPak, on 30 August 2012 - 06:57 AM, said: I ordered them for the same reason. I was pissed off yesterday but got over it, overall it'll cost me about € 200 so that's not a lot for a lesson learned. I…
  15. Just had a lowside 30 Aug 2012 11:54 [image: View Post]ZesPak, on 30 August 2012 - 03:29 AM, said: Thanks, already mailed to bike design for the part number of the rubber. I'll post a picture of the damage later. As for the engine cover, also found this:…
  16. Tail Section... What have you done to it? 15 Aug 2012 19:00 Competition Werkes fender eliminator kit. Pricey for what it is, but it looks great without much hassle on the install. Skip eating out a few times, and you've paid for it!
  17. Question on OEM Hard Cases? 15 Aug 2012 18:57 I have the side cases, and yep, they were ordered, and installed by my dealership. That said, I don't really mind the reflectors, but concede the fact the bike would look better without them. The cases work well (when I…
  18. Rear seat cowl. 6 Jul 2012 15:35 Nodak, Does it take a good deal of time to take the cowl on (or off)? I ask this due to the fact I often use the stock seat when riding solo, and throw a Corbin dual tour seat with backrest on when the wife rides along.…
  19. Rear seat cowl. 4 Jul 2012 16:35 I got the Powerbronze seat cowl and took it a step further by getting it painted at a local body shop. To me, the cowl stands out better and looks nicer with the matching red paint, and I like the way it matches the…
  20. Ordered my Bazzaz Z-Bomb today! 2 Jul 2012 14:59 Interceptorridder, thanks for the suggestion. I'll leave the z-bomb be, and do the PCV install as I originally intended. I'm going with the 2 Bros map, simply because it appears the be the closest thing available. The…
  21. Ordered my Bazzaz Z-Bomb today! 2 Jul 2012 04:15 As I've mentioned, I have the z-bomb installed on my V12, and I do like the difference it's made. I do have a question about it's use with a PCV. Should I remove the z-bomb for the initial PCV install? I'll be using the…
  22. Exhaust photos and comments. 27 Jun 2012 22:11 [image: View Post]Jessman, on 27 June 2012 - 05:00 PM, said: I too love the Dam pipe...what are people being quoted for one shipped to the US? Jessman, I emailed DAM, and actually received a fairly quick response. Total…
  23. Exhaust photos and comments. 26 Jun 2012 16:46 I just installed the Leo Vince carbon pipe to my 1200. I must say that it looks and sounds much better than I've seen and heard in the various photos and video clips online. The sound especially surprised me, as it is…
  24. Exhaust photos and comments. 22 Jun 2012 18:28 Cancelled the order for two reasons; It was not in stock (I'm always a little disappointed when I get that response from retailers...) and it did not look like it would be "friendly" for a pillion. While I think it…
  25. Spiegler LSL vs Heli bars 19 Jun 2012 22:04 I really appreciate what you can do to help me out. I have the Helibars on my bike! They are good, but I believe I'd really like the Spiegler bar better. Just trying to get this bike just right...
  26. Exhaust photos and comments. 19 Jun 2012 21:02 I just purchase the Competition Werkes exhaust today. I've got the R&G black engine protectors/covers, so I ordered the pipe in black. It should look great. Anxious to get it on the bike. I do have the Honda OEM side…
  27. Spiegler LSL vs Heli bars 19 Jun 2012 20:56 mikep, Did you end up going with the Spiegler bar? I would appreciate your observations on the differences between them and stock and/or Helibars. Thanks.
  28. Aftermarket Accessory Sockets? 8 May 2012 13:30 I just ordered the Burnsmoto usb plug with the SAE option, as I've a battery tender already wired. I'm hoping this takes care of my powercord needs. Once in awhile charging of a phone is fine. The real thing I'm after…
  29. Matte look to factory bling. 4 May 2012 17:37 Looks great. Do you think the entire factory exhaust would look good in that finish? I'm thinking that it could be a big improvement.
  30. Factory seat deterioration 19 Apr 2012 17:57 I hope your dealer takes care of you and provides you with a new seat. You mention Sargent. I don't have experience with them, but I do, have a Corbin. It's just now broken in at 1000 miles. Was wondering if it was…
  31. Ordered my Bazzaz Z-Bomb today! 12 Apr 2012 19:24 emko I got mine a week ago and tested it immediately - very noticeable difference in 1st and 2nd gear, no power drop, no jerking. Also the sound improved a lot, it gave it more roaring I guess because the valve opens…
  32. Ordered my Bazzaz Z-Bomb today! 10 Apr 2012 18:57 I don't think the gear indicator issue has been fixed, and there's probably not a great deal of push to do so. I would personally like to see it, as well. Having said that, I ordered the z-bomb last week, and am looking…
