  2. 190/55 On A Vfr? 28 Feb 2014 00:00 Beck One season of good luck with a slick front does not change the fact that the tire was designed by the manufacturer for the track and the conditions and tire temperatures that you expect in such.... Unless you might…
  3. 190/55 On A Vfr? 27 Feb 2014 21:09 CornerCarver Beck norton850 Bosarge22 I put the GPA's on my VFR and have about 1000 miles on them. They feel SO much better then the stock Metzler's. I hated those tires. I'm not sure if the taller profile is helping…
  4. 190/55 On A Vfr? 26 Feb 2014 20:56 Bosarge22 I put the GPA's on my VFR and have about 1000 miles on them. They feel SO much better then the stock Metzler's. I hated those tires. I'm not sure if the taller profile is helping turn or just the tire itself…
  5. Michelin pr 4 18 Feb 2014 13:43 So for the price is the only problem I see ... I did the math on the pr3 vs. the pilot power and cost the same to run either of the two,the only advantage would be less changes.So if you change your own tires which I do…
  6. Paint Or Plastidip? 29 Jan 2014 22:17 [image: DSC00206.JPG] I did my rims and top worked out just fine,and when I get tried of it it comes right off.Plus the cost is crazy cheap.
  7. New Vfr800 Vtec Will Be Introduced At Eicma. 4 Nov 2013 22:36 Gorp Good God. I usually lurk to read up on tech and maintenance info for my bike. (07 RWB + 55K miles, purchased new in 2010). It is a fantastic sport-touring bike, (which means nessasary compromises) as most here…
  8. New Vfr800 Vtec Will Be Introduced At Eicma. 4 Nov 2013 20:29 00Yeller Lorne Do those disappointed with the looks of the new VFR800 prefer the new MV Agusta Tourismo Veloce? Fyi, I don't. Yes as a matter of fact I do. Unfortunately I see a pattern evolving at Honda, warmed over…
  9. New Vfr800 Vtec Will Be Introduced At Eicma. 4 Nov 2013 15:26 luvtoleanit I don't see the real need for Traction Control at those same power levels. That will surely add to the MSRP. Traction control on that bike doesn't any sense at all,a slipper clutch would have been spot on.
  10. New Vfr800 Vtec Will Be Introduced At Eicma. 4 Nov 2013 13:50 478 dry weight me thinks they should have put it on a diet,vtec kinda old school might work on a corolla.
  11. Fox1 Is The New Name But The Mistakes In This Article Make It Seem Liek Speed All Over 13 Aug 2013 15:50 Ralph Sheheen, Scott Russell, Greg White. The three most annoying motorsports voices on the planet. I respect Scott Russell, but an announcer's voice, he does not got. When he speaks it sounds like a big bag of dicks.…
  12. 10Th Annual Tmac Picture Thread 25 May 2013 21:30 I'm here and ready to party... Where is everyone??? [image: 89476851-7F62-4BCD-81B4-67D6419A5EF9-840] It took a minute to get it,but it is quite good :goofy:
  13. 10Th Annual Tmac Picture Thread 24 May 2013 12:38 . Thoughts of Ponrod who made the cross and has since passed RIP
  14. 190/55 On A Vfr? 10 May 2013 13:58 [image: post-2675-0-80783400-1368193700.jpg] I have ran a 200/5517 power one almost all the time on my deceased VFR,and on the above R6.The reason is a friend gives me his track tires which are just fine for the street.…
  15. Engine Swap Tips? 15 Mar 2013 16:56 best way is pay a tech 150 like I did,even picked the bike up and delivered it. Attached Images [image: DSC00005.JPG]
  16. Speedtv Programming, Need Your Feedback To The Network 16 Feb 2013 09:28 Sent feedback every month for many years when they took over Speedvision. Finally gave up. The best thing for us racing fans is that they dropped it. Hopefully another channel will pick it up and do a better job with…

  18. My new 99 VFR 10 Sep 2012 12:50 Thats my old bike hate to be the bearer of some rather bad news but the frame is cracked. http://www.vfrdiscus...66-goodbye-vfr/ I'm confused. Did you change your name from silkysmooth to norton850? I have used both…
  19. My new 99 VFR 10 Sep 2012 10:35 Slicks? OK whatever. The VFR's chassis and horsepower aren't great enough to require slicks. If the PO was riding hard enough (on the racetrack, I hope) to be sliding around on treaded DOT race tires, and needing more…
  20. My new 99 VFR 10 Sep 2012 10:08 I've seen this bike before. Maybe a member here? Maybe it was just Killboy pics. Thats my old bike hate to be the bearer of some rather bad news but the frame is cracked.…
