Last 50 of 148- about the Rothmans graphics on Honda V4 1 hour ago, The Phantom That's a great helmet cabinet. I don't know Mick personally but I do see him at events I attend from time to time, if I can talk to him I'll show him your pic. Last time I saw him was when he…
- about the Rothmans graphics on Honda V4 I apologize if my earlier post took away from the wonderful liveries of past that provided us race fans with great sights and racing. Watching Castrol Oil circulate at the BGP last weekend was priceless. I too miss…
- about the Rothmans graphics on Honda V4 It all got started for me in the early 1980’s when I saw this guy ride that bike, Freddie Spencer and his NSR in Rothmans livery. Watching the GP guys ride those machines was incredible, their skill, daring and many…
- FS: 5th Gen Staintune Exhaust - Very Good Condition I'm selling my Staintune stainless exhaust from my 5th gen. It is in very good condition, no dings, chips, scrapes or rash. It comes with the mounting hardware including the left side passenger grab rail spacer. $400…
- Stator Tests I sent a stator to Custom Rewind and had them upgrade the windings as well as put a Yamaha connector on the output leads. Got it back and installed it in a buddy's 98 with about 20k miles on it. We previously installed…
- McCruise for Gen 8 VFR? I bought a 6th gen kit off this site for my 5th gen and their support to retro fit it was outstanding. They walked me through the install and even matched some hardware to work with the 5th gen. I sure burned up their…

- 5th Gen Engine Modifications Injector RX received my injectors today, and they already completed the cleaning/refurb. They ship back tomorrow. Now, I sent the 8, hoping to get a good set of 4. Well, all 8 are now back to factory spec. Anybody in…
- 5th Gen Engine Modifications Best pics I could achieve of the water pump. Not sure how much was done to the fins, but he cleaned up the inside of the cover. Craig is a super easy person to deal with. He is a very honest chap even when presented…
- 5th Gen Engine Modifications Good news! I have the engine back from Hanson Racing Technology, Craig Hanson, in Chico, CA. I made a trip recently to ship it back east. Forward Air is about as easy to deal with as my brushless automatic car wash. No…
- 5th Gen Engine Modifications WSS and all, sorry for the delay of delays. The gasket kit was ordered two weeks ago so I imagine it will be back together soon..... Pickup will be another story as my local connect may not be an option. Once I have my…

- Gsxr Mirrors On 6th Gen You won't need to break the OEM glass. I heated the housing up using halogen shop lights and gently popped the mirror out using a plastic scraper. Once the housing is warm enough, the lip holding the mirror in is easy…

- Custom Rewind What most people order are upgraded windings and output leads. Much more robust. For us R1 RR users, he could direct wire the Yammy connector for us too!
- 8 Spoke Colour Ideas [image: post-2785-0-91247300-1423966838.jpg] I like white too
- Whats This Wheel Off? Look on the inside of one of the spokes and the dimensions will be there.
- Gsxr Mirrors On 6th Gen One solid bottom base. There is a rubber bushing that you see in the pic. [image: VFR800 GSXR v VFR 007.jpg] [image: VFR800 GSXR v VFR 005.jpg] [image: VFR800 GSXR v VFR 006.jpg]

- New To Site: 85 Vf1000R Looks like a previous attempt to coat the inside.
- Paddock Stands I too emailed Bursig after I saw they made an adaptor plate for the RC30. One can hope!

- Samco Hose Kits For The 5Th Gen Vfr800 With all of the excitement regarding the 3rd and 4th gen SAMCO hose kits, I inquired about a kit for the 5th gen. I got in contact with Richard Murphy at Racebikebitz who said they are willing to produce a kit for the…
- Samco Hose Kits For 3Rd & 4Th Vfr 750 I too have made contact with Richard and I will supply a donor kit for the 5th gen. Again, he needs 10-15 sets to justify production. I will notify him when we have the minimum number of buyers. OK, who is in? 1. sa1713…
- Gsxr Mirror Mod I'd be in for a 5th gen set. If I can get a set, I have a local shop that might be able to crank out an order.
- Custom Devil Dual Underseat Exhaust System Hello nzeder, My response is about the same as Rob's: 1. Have you made rear suspension mods to give extra clearance for the underseat setup? No, as my WP shock is ride height adjustable and my original settings work. 2.…
- Headers/exhaust Advice For Vfr-750 (95') I have had a 3rd/4th gen TBR header and mocked it up to my 5th gen to see if I could easily obtain a left side exit. No worky. The ports are at different angles between the two(3) generations. 3rd and 4th gen will swap…
- Undertail Exhaust On A 5Th Gen - Need Help Dan fabricated my underseat pan as well. A very nice bit he made. Give him a call.
- Exhaust Manifold/downpipe Leak - 5Th Gen From your pics you may have the TBR stainless steel header system. Very rare. Pull the complete system off and install new copper gaskets ($3-4 each). When you torque the stud nuts, make sure don't over tighten them.
- I have the measurements on the erion racing header vs the motad TBR offered both mild and ss steel for the 98-09. OEM 98-99 are mild steel with 00+ ss.
- I have the measurements on the erion racing header vs the motad Is it mild or stainless steel?
- I have the measurements on the erion racing header vs the motad I have one that I will be mounting next week or the week after (depending on delivery schedule to Timmy). Before I mount it I am testing the bike as it sits (98 header, Wolf exhaust, PCII) then I will swap the header at…
- 5th Gen Engine Modifications Nothing to be done with the pistons or rings. They are in perfect shape. Engine had about 3k miles on it before I got my hands on it. Craig at HRT (Chico, CA) said a rod/piston swap with lighter bits would not be…
- 5th Gen Engine Modifications Well, DD was not completely forthcoming with his actions. In January I spoke to him and he told me the cams were at Webcams for grinding. He was waiting for them to build a fixture to hold the cams without the need to…
- Stator Rewinding Veefer800Canuck Anybody got pics of one of his completed rewinds? And I agree, someone competent and dedicated can certainly do an excellent job rewinding stators and alternators. We get large electric motors…
- Stator Rewinding He puts brand new grommets. Take a picture of the OEM windings and compare them to Gary's. You'll see the difference in gauge and process. The OEM windings have "lane" defections, where Gary's are nice and tight. Not…
- Stator Rewinding Send him your core and he will rewind it.
- Stator Rewinding +1 for Gary at Custom Rewind. Very quick turn around. Put a $100 in a box and you'll get it done. I asked him for upgraded windings and output leads.
- 5th Gen Engine Modifications I've got a rather good update: After reading the posting about DD and the customer's experience, I did not hold much hope of getting my cams back or my deposit. I made repeated attempts to contact DD with no success.…
- Undertail Exhaust On A 5Th Gen - Need Help There are others... namely, mine, and sa1713's, both of which used Laser end cans and Erion or TBR full exhaust headers. Search for our threads/galleries. Wolf is long gone, but I suspect that the guy that did ours…
- 5th Gen Engine Modifications Mohawk Sorry to hear that your ebg has let you down that badly. My original EBD is perfect, the hang up is with Dave Dodge. He has my cams, which in the big scheme of things is easily replaceable and that is in process.…
- 5th Gen Engine Modifications Well, I don't have good news to report. I've found that Dave Dodge may have fallen down on not only my cam work but many other customers' work. He not only has my cams but also a sizeable deposit. Nothing compared to…
- 5th Gen Engine Modifications Racing season is about to finish so I would expect that the EBD will complete this soon.
- Just broke down Damn valve adjustment
