All 46- Fuel economy. 180 miles per tank is a joke My 2013 F model has run over 180 miles but it was running on fumes when I pulled off for a fill up. That is not typical though. It was on a table flat road (US interstate) running the speed at 70 to 75 MPH. Typical…
- Decatting VFR1200 2010 Get the single sensor DJ auto tune unit. You will not notice any more noise especially with the DB killer removed. I don't have a two Bros. (I have a Leo Vinci) but in my case removing the DB killer only added 2.5 HP…
- New shaft drive motorcycle land-speed record? I was not questioning your intent CornerCarver I was actually agreeing with you but I can see re-reading my post why you thought I did. Re-read edited post and you have my apology for not being more careful.
- New shaft drive motorcycle land-speed record? CornerCarver, 7/27/2016 at 1:09 PM This is necessary when the wind is above a certain mph IIRC.... Still we are splitting extremely fine hairs 5 ways to think that the average speed across a distance of only 60…
- Lifts Abba Vs Bursig The best price I found in the US for the Bursig with the wheels and the VFR 1200 adaptor was around $580 delivered. Although not priced in the US on any site I found the Abba skylift for most other bikes go for just…

- Lifts Abba Vs Bursig I need a versatile motorcycle lift that takes up a minimum of garage space. I am getting to damn old to crawl around on a cold concrete floor to perform routine maintenance, tire changes etc. I have looked on line at a…
- How to remove power limitations 1st and 2nd gear Hondavfr1200dct, You have nothing to worry about with warranty problems from Honda with a Guhl ECU re-flash. The only way anyone at a US Honda dealership is going to know anything was done to the ECU is if they see the…
- Flash Ecu Vfr1200 Conclusion... Please Only Experience From People Who Have Theire 1200Ecu Flashed, No Speculations Only Facts! what happened to the original topic??? I got one of the first two VFR 1200 ECU's that Don Guhl re-flashed. Worked as advertised except for removal of the top speed limiter. Don called and had me ship it back when they…
- My Build luvtoleanit Don has resolved the top speed limiter. Send it back if you want it removed. I dyno tested the 2nd re-flash Don did to remove the speed limiter and my bike ran all the way to the 11,100 RPM limiter in 5th &…
- Lcd Readout Upgrade On Vfr1200 Dct 2011 Possible? Since no one here seems to have tried this I suggest you befriend your local Honda dealer parts guy and start comparing part numbers to see what needs to be changed. My guess is it will require a new ECU from a 2012 at…
- Land Speed Racing, Guhl Reflash Reality, Scott's Damper Possible Yep already did that but it was way back in 1983 for drag racing. Cop was mad as hell, said his car was maxed out at 130 MPH on his certified speedometer and he couldn't keep up with us. He really was not amused when I…
- Land Speed Racing, Guhl Reflash Reality, Scott's Damper Possible I would say yes if you think you are going to want to exceed the stock 155 MPH limiter. Updates are free excluding freight from Guhl. Personally the only reason I wanted it removed is that running my bike in a ECTA…
- Land Speed Racing, Guhl Reflash Reality, Scott's Damper Possible Tested the bike yesterday and the speed limiter is gone. It will now pull (on the dyno) to the 11,100 RPM limiter in 5th gear (163.4 MPH) and in 6th gear (179.87 MPH). Thanks Don for sticking with the speed limiter…
- Land Speed Racing, Guhl Reflash Reality, Scott's Damper Possible Spud Don worked on breaking the ECU code on both models (F & DCT) more or less simultaneously. He actually flashed and shipped a DCT ECU (the first one he did) to California before He flashed my F model ECU. Don…
- Land Speed Racing, Guhl Reflash Reality, Scott's Damper Possible Damn that's hard to take after all the preparation and effort. I have to apologize to the forum for not getting the dyno testing done on Gugl's ver. 2 re-flash to verify whether the speed limiter was removed. Other…
- Anybody Else Regret Buying Their Vfr1200? No regrets here with my 2013 1200F. I will say i am a lot more satisfied with the big VFR as I have modified it to suit my needs. The more miles I put on this bike the better I like it.
- The Lazy Windscreen Removal method The area of the stock windshield that causes the maintenance cleanup problem is the two lower side sections. Since I like the stock windshield I plan on painting the lower section of the shield on the inside with gloss…
- Vfr 1200 Motor In New Ariel Ace Motorcycle A few reasons... 1. EU version of the ECU might not be the same as NA VFR1200's. 2. Ariel has what-appears-to-be a minimal - almost straight-thu - exhaust, without the EPA mandated crapola on it. 3. Could just be…
- Vfr 1200 Motor In New Ariel Ace Motorcycle MCN writes ... "You can’t go far wrong when you start with a Honda VFR1200 engine and electronics, so it’s no surprise the Ace’s lump is a peach, developing linear power, with glitch-free fuelling, and a nice kick at…
- Bst Carbon Fiber Wheels For Vfr 1200 Anybody weighed the stock front and rear rims on a VFR 1200 (without tires or in the case of the front no tire or brake discs)??? In Brock's e-mail to me he said they didn't have a set to weigh on their certified scale…
- 2013 Vfr1200F Jonmarsh Me too, especially at the price I got this 2013 for... [image: IMGP0499_zpsb6eaff32.jpg] Looks even better at home... :rolleyes: [image: photo1_zps23433b7d.jpg] [image: photo2_zpsb4e74dcb.jpg] I think you can…
- Bst Carbon Fiber Wheels For Vfr 1200 Starling good or startling bad? Good, the bike turned & handled like it was had lost 50 pounds. Brock has a simple demonstration of the difference lighter wheels have on handling he does at dealer shows. He has a stock…
- Bst Carbon Fiber Wheels For Vfr 1200 I rode a V-Max with with BST CF wheels and the difference was startling.
- Bst Carbon Fiber Wheels For Vfr 1200 good lord those are yummy. Can't imagine what kind of $$ they'd cost. In the neighborhood of $3000 I expect. I see quite a few sets on Ducati 1199's at the Ducati shop that does dyno tuning for me. They look even better…
- Bst Carbon Fiber Wheels For Vfr 1200 [attachment=34828:1200 BST wheel set.bmp] See attachment of image of the new BST wheels for the VFR 1200. I contacted BST in South Africa 3 months ago about their interest in making carbon fiber wheels for the VFR 1200.…
- Suspension Choice I have just looked at Nitron shocks and they also only list them for a 2010 to 2011 model. http://www.nitron.co...ycles/Honda/VFR Are both Ohlins and Nitron both crap at updating their websites for nearly two years or…
- Michelin pr 4 60 pounds sounds about right between my 08 FJR and the 13 VFR Dave. My VFR feels even lighter than the 60 pound difference due to it's lower CG.
- 2013 Vfr1200F I like the 2013 fine in black. That's one of the reasons I bought one. :beer:
- Vfr 1200 Side Case Options I assume the Honda cases fit into the four recesses at the rear of the bike. Where do they lock in at the bottom? Does Honda use the passenger foot peg brackets or is there additional hardware that mounts on the bike.…
- Ecu Re-Flash - All 4 Threads Merged The company who did my reflash also has an office in the USA. http://www.carmousa.com/ When you go to this US website Carmo only lists two Honda models (2006 thru 2011 CBR 600 & 1000). All re-flashes are referred to…
- Ecu Re-Flash - All 4 Threads Merged Me too, if no one offers up by Monday. I will pull mine out and send it to him. It's a 10 min job. John, let me know. VFRFlanders was the guy that I was waiting on for his report for the re-flash... :cheerleader:…
- Ecu Re-Flash - All 4 Threads Merged Still waiting to see anyone post impressions or hard data either in the US or overseas that has had a VFR 1200F ECU re flash from ecuunleashed. Anyone from Australia where this company is from had a re flash on your VFR…

- Ecu Re-Flash - All 4 Threads Merged I have some progress to report but we are not there yet. I shipped my 2013 1200F model ECU (pt. # 38770-MGE-C32) to Don Guhl along with my factory service manual Tuesday this week. The first step was whether Don and his…
- Vfr 1200 Side Case Options Great input from everyone, thanks :cool:
- Vfr 1200 Side Case Options Thanks Dave, thats the kind of input i am looking for. Thanks for the tip on the Givi liners, I would have bought them. Loved the liners that came with my FJR. The wife doesn't ride with me anymore so thats not a…
- Vfr 1200 Side Case Options I have been looking into getting a set of side cases for my 2013 VFR and need input from guys who already have either Givi or OEM Honda cases. I have been looking into the Givi V35's with the SW Motech quick release…
- Ecu Re-Flash - All 4 Threads Merged Ok guys I have sent the information Don Guhl requested today. I provided him the Honda ECU part numbers for the US 2012 & 2013 VFR 1200F models (38770-MGE-C32) and for the US 2010 & 2011 1200F models (38770-MGE-773). I…
- Ecu Re-Flash - All 4 Threads Merged Will do Dave. It's probably a long shot with Brock, he generally sticks to developing parts for bikes that have a significant market potential. Most of his customers are either drag racers or guys with Japanese sport…
- Ecu Re-Flash - All 4 Threads Merged We shall monitor your progress! +1 as Guhl does top quality work. This is just a first step. Until I get the information to Don Guhl he requested and he has time to evaluate it it just remains a possability. Frankly I…
- Ecu Re-Flash - All 4 Threads Merged I still have not seen a single person on this VFR 1200 forum or the VFR club forum that has suscessfully recieved a re-flashed ECU from ecuunleashed. I have contacted Don Guhl of Guhl performance and he has responded…
- How to remove power limitations 1st and 2nd gear gbh DDO-VFR 'vee1cut First off...congrats to dutchgixxer for being what appears, on the verge of solving the lower gear power limitation. But would someone help me out here? I may have missed it but in all the reading…
- Vfrd Group Buy...vfr1200 Flash Guys a little research on other wed sites and i found AFI Racing in Texas. They are a certified tuning center for unleashed. They list the re-flash service on their website for $449. Feedback on the Yamaha & other forum…
- Thinking Of Trading Fjr Ae For V12 I am a FJR owner (08 & previously a 05). Both Yamahas have been reliable decent handling bikes that had all the necessary basic equipment for sport touring. I loved the looks & innovation of the VFR12 in 2010 when it…
- Ordered my Bazzaz Z-Bomb today! I am new here and just looking for information to decide whether to buy a new VFR12 or a used or leftover earlier model. If the new model has traction control did they unrestrict the power in the 1st 3 gears. In other…
