Last 50 of 332- Tire size for 6-inch rear wheel My 2c is 190/55 on a 6 inch every time A 180/55 stretched over a 6inch rim will flatten out and be less sharp. Harder to transition from the centre of the tyre to the edge. When I was converting to a 1098s rear wheel, i…
- Streetfighter Coil Locations TheCommando, 4/16/2020 at 9:23 PM What COP did you end up using? Sent from my SM-G970W using Tapatalk 2008 (i think) cbr1000
- Streetfighter Coil Locations on my 5th gen i attached them to the air box, and then went to a COP conversion.
- 5th & 6th VFR 800 Header build Oooh, left high mount would show off my lurid green 1098s rear wheel nicely...[image: imageproxy.php?img=&key=7efb97be9d19f7a0737d0938b42b793bdaef]
- Yoshi Style Velocity Stacks revisited So no dual stacks anymore? Just single stacks set just above the base of the airbox?
- What's a good beginner bike for my friend? Sweeper, 8/28/2019 at 11:44 PM The new Honda CB500’s are plentiful here in the states and are cheaper to buy and repair than the VFR. They are awesome bikes as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Ive got a 2016…
- STREET FIGHTER BUILD - 6th Gen 3 hours ago, Halfrider fresh paint keef? Yeah, but only matte black on the rad shrouds. I put some bar end indicators into the shrouds, so thought i should finally spray them.
- Manual Mistakes? 10 hours ago, Marvelicious So, as long as we're taking the piss (as you limeys would say) with regard to English... I'm pretty sure we earned a pass on abusing the language however we please since you aren't all…
- STREET FIGHTER BUILD - 6th Gen I didnt live through the UJM, too young, and not american. My first memories of bikes i paid attention to were big gixxer 1100's. Part of the reason i had a 711 fighter. My understanding is the american media branded…
- STREET FIGHTER BUILD - 6th Gen Someone say streetfighter? I like a good fighter [image: 20190816_074502.jpg]

- Vfr8 Streetfighter Beautiful winter's day today. Rode the old pacific highway, with no cops which was nice. [image: 20190727_105152.jpg]
- Vfr8 Streetfighter I manged to get my old polisport hanguards on, and commuted on it today. The angle of the clipons makes it really comfortable for such an aggressive setup- high seat, high pegs and low bars. And big thankyou to mohawk…
- 98-2001 5th gen Rearset adapters - Sebspeed Customs I connected my OEM brake light switch with a simple L bracket. And i love your choice of wheel.
- Some new thought about 5th Gen summertime cooling... You know what every town needs though? A front mount radiator.
- Vfr8 Streetfighter Ive also got a front mount rad, so air that has been through the oil cooler or rad wont really make a difference. Its the volume inside the airbox that makes the difference.
- Vfr8 Streetfighter 12 minutes ago, Stray Very, very cool! Why super-short stacks and not dual-stacks a la Mohawk? Does your airbox have a lid or are you running it open? The big airbox takes the filter and puts it into the airbox lid…
- Vfr8 Streetfighter So, still chipping away on upgrades. Finished my mohawk big airbox to go with the supershort velocity stacks. Added some m4 rivnuts to the airbox lower since the OEM threads were pulling out of the plastic Changed to…
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA For even more performance, you could remove the centre stand? Yes, a little jelous i dont have a set.
- What is considered high KMs or miles for a VFR sebs is a lot prettier, but well, he is really, really talented. Link to my incredibly long running thread over the years. I still love it. The TLR rad works brilliantly, but is probably harder work than the vfr750 rad…
- Powder coated wheels on 5th Gen Why are there no lairy colours? Only me? [image: 20180725_131935.jpg]
- No More Side Radiators - Period! I love the TL rad. So good i think it will handle oil temps as well, so id swap the air/oil cooler for a water/oil cooler. Its a big curved rad, so its really good at forcing air through it, especially on a fighter. I…
- No More Side Radiators - Period! I'm using the top rad from a suzuki TL1000R. Commuted yesterday on it for the first time in a while. 84*C while moving, up to 97*C in bumper to bumper/gridlock, then back to mid 80s again once i was rolling. Curved rad,…
- CoC Document so that's where our written off bikes go. I don't think anyone is going to send you their docs for your to falsify. What is the COC?
- Front end conversion - was yours worth it ?? Jealous of the monoblocks. Nice work.
- Pardon The Nudity... Still pissed i missed keeping it in aus. It would make a 6th gen sound a bit like gdc. Put it on a fighter in all its naked glory. Rapid bike, with my tuning bike tuning each cylinder indivdually. You know you want to.
- Pardon The Nudity... SEBSPEED, 12/20/2018 at 12:46 AM 37 minutes ago, SEBSPEED Agreed, the weight loss makes it feel a lot better! Lots of little stuff that could add up, led lighting gets cheaper every day... wheels don't, but swapping the…
- Pardon The Nudity... 180 wet is achievable, i reckon. The headlight weighs a tonne because its glass- works really well, but heavy. Maybe one of the ktm duke 390? And i still have the steel subframe from the ninja 250. Al. Subframe would…
- Pardon The Nudity... SEBSPEED, 12/20/2018 at 12:46 AM Looking forward to your results. I used a pair of cheap bathroom scales and weighed the bike 3 times to get an average. The weights varied per try more than I would have liked to see,…
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA Like highside NZ, since ive got a front mount rad, and low mounted oil cooler, the 8th gen splayed pipes would come in handy for me and my 5th gen too. Nice work, we are almost up and running.
- Pardon The Nudity... 4 hours ago, SEBSPEED I'll be adding more detail pics here as I get them edited and uploaded. Something just as interesting though... The final wet weight of the bike is 425lb with 1 gallon of fuel in the tank (6.3lbs).…
- Single Nut Conversion Vfr800 Hrc Rc45 Style - One More:-) My bike was the guinea pig for it years ago. Guinea bike?
- Vfr8 Streetfighter And believe it or not, this pic was taken yesterday in the same area- sudden coldsnap 1 week from summer [image: imageproxy.php?img=&key=2f13eb558190e64dcf425edcc36f26045780] [image: Screen_Sh.jpg]
- 5th & 6th VFR 800 Header build Yep, its why i have a delk and custom link pipe and can, not a glorious, custom, hand made setup.
- 5th & 6th VFR 800 Header build I know a couple places in sydney that could do it- not mass production, but one offs.
- Vfr8 Streetfighter I did a trackday on thursday, then a weekend ride with some of the ASF guys through the mountains. No clearance issues with my new rearsets, but i did scrape my sidestand a couple of times at the track. [image:…

- Ugly downpipes, Footpegs and Centre stand. I did a trackday on thursday. My footpegs dont scrape any more, rearsets are awesome. I did manage to scrape my fireblade side stand. Not sure how i can make that higher. Take it off after the ohlins goes in.
- Ugly downpipes, Footpegs and Centre stand. And gus, if you've already done the shock and rearsets, you dont need the centre stand anymore. Lose the weight.

- So I'm rebuilding my crashed Suzuki SV1000S. A gixxer front end will fix that right up.
- What is considered high KMs or miles for a VFR 162,000ks on my 5th gen. I bought it with 150,000, and turned it into a fighter. Just changing the water pump now, changed the reg rec, apart from that, all good.
- Pardon The Nudity... So glad you finally put this up here. Bloody brilliant, mate.
- Vfr8 Streetfighter Went for a ride with my brother the other day, me on the VFR, and him on his tuono. He took the VFR for a spin. Great feedback an how it felt, considering the tuono is a benchmark. His first comment was it sounds ANGRY.…
- Beating a dead horse - thermostats and 5th gen operating temperture Sriracha chili sauce to keep it hot
- Beating a dead horse - thermostats and 5th gen operating temperture Front mount.
- Naked Delight - The story so far - Phase 3 The why was i think it would look better if the top of the red part of the fairing was at the top of the tank, thats all. I thought the lines from the tank would flow a bit better. I'll stick with my 5th gen fighter.…
- Naked Delight - The story so far - Phase 3 I love fighters, and dont think its a fighter, either. Brilliant naked bike, though. Love the ride by wire conversion - the yamaha mt09 also has cables that go to electronics for their RBW system as well. Can you lower…
- Beating a dead horse - thermostats and 5th gen operating temperture Front mount TL1000R rad, under 97*C in Sydney gridlocked/standstill traffic. 80* in free flowing traffic. ambient temps maybe 18*-22*c because its winter.
