  1. Plug Replacement -- Irridiums Worth It? 23 Oct 2015 19:08 The vtec models came from the factory with iridium right? I changed my factory iridium plugs out for new ones of the same kind at 60,000 miles. They were fine. I also changed the fuel filter, balanced the starter…
  2. Plug Replacement -- Irridiums Worth It? 23 Oct 2015 16:59 Thanks Skids I just order a set. I could tell around 50k miles that the bike was a little harder to start and fuel mileage was down but I kept putting it off.
  3. Plug Replacement -- Irridiums Worth It? 23 Oct 2015 15:31 So after 65k miles I need to replace my original spark plugs. I think I will go with ngk iridium plugs. Does anyone know the correct number amazon is showing a couple different iridium plugs eg. cr8ehix-9, cr9ehix-9?
  4. Parts Compatibility 24 Jun 2015 02:28 Is the 8th Gen engine basically the same as the 6th gen? Reason I'm asking is I'm curious if they upgraded parts like the stator and rr and if those parts can be put on a 6th gen.

  9. Vfr1200 Torque 16 Oct 2009 17:40 I know we all wanted a 300lb bike with 200hp, but get over it already. If people obsessed as much about there own wieght as they do this bike, so many people wouldn't be over wieght. 35 or so lbs over the 6th gen is not…
  10. How Low Have You Gone? 2 Oct 2009 16:56 I've ran it out before, only because I normally go off of miles per tank. I didn't put into account a strong head wind. 200miles per tank that day, normally I don't have a problem getting 220 miles with gas to spare.…
  11. Vfr Will Have Dual Clutch / 3 Types Of Shifting 8 Sep 2009 19:30 Now that you guys mentioned it, it appears we will have two bikes to choose from. 1. being are standard manual trans with nothing else. 2. Electric push button shift, with ability to be in full auto upon selection. So…
  12. Vfr Will Have Dual Clutch / 3 Types Of Shifting 8 Sep 2009 15:49 I think the main question is going to be, how reliable is it? With all the tech going into this bike if it brakes it is going to be expensive to repair. Any quality issues equal to or less than the 6th gen will not be…

  15. Vfr Will Have Dual Clutch / 3 Types Of Shifting 8 Sep 2009 15:10 Nice find. Correct me if I'm wrong but it looks like the new vfr gives you 3 choices full manual, push button manual and fully automatic. Other things we can see is the instrament panel. Which looks nice. Rpm limit of…

  17. Want To Clarify 26 Jun 2008 02:15 Reminds me of the other week. I just fell asleep when my wife came in and reminded me that I left the bike outside. Tired I told her not to worry about it, and I went back to sleep. A few minutes later I was awakend by…
