  1. oil comming from air intake 13 May 2016 19:17 Thanks Guys! Since I didn't know when was the last oil change, I've done it completly. I'll take a look at the air filter to see if there is more oil spilled in the filter after a long ride. I'll change it by the same…
  2. oil comming from air intake 13 May 2016 09:27 4 hours ago, Terry Don't check the oil level on the sidestand, the bike has to be on the centrestand. Leave the bike to sit for a few minutes to allow oil to drain back from the cams etc before checking. A bit of oil…
  3. oil comming from air intake 13 May 2016 03:42 As the title said, I've got oil comming from a cylinder by the air intake. It is from the rear-right cylinder. My bike only have 33 000km, I've bought the bike this winter so havent look at that. I don't exactly know…
  4. New Special 25 Anniversary Owner 1 Mar 2016 21:20 I was thinking installing led to remove a charge on the r/r, the better visibility and also to remove the dark color in turn signal. Thanks for the links Cogswell! I'll take a look for the vfrness and monitor a bit the…
  5. New Special 25 Anniversary Owner 1 Mar 2016 04:02 Hi there! I had a 2000 vfr before and love the V4. Always wanted an 8th gen but price is out of range for now and I finally fall in love with that 2007 special edition 6th gen. I just can't wait to try it as there is…
  6. Post A Picture Of Your Vfr 29 Feb 2016 02:49 Switchblade Congrats did it come with the house ? :goofy: Thanks :beer: haha wel.. the winter shed was the only place without ice... been raining a lot 2 days ago and it's now completly iced. It was pretty funny to drop…
  7. Visited The Honda Dealer Today 30 Jan 2016 23:22 Something which help me is by changing kind of underwear, I've bought some sport one which result in no more moisture and pain on 800km days
  8. Vfr Gen 6 To Gen 8 22 Jan 2016 04:45 Thanks guy for the feedback :) Still don'T know what to do this spring! haha
  9. Vfr Gen 6 To Gen 8 20 Jan 2016 03:03 So guys, after more than a year with the 8th gen, what do you think of the new gen compare to 6th, does the difference is enough to pay for it?
  10. Aftermarket Pipes For Gen 8 1 Nov 2015 04:38 Anyone ever think to try fitting an Mv-Augusta 675/800 triple exhaust? That would give a really nice look to the vfr!
  11. Power Commander 22 Aug 2015 22:02 That is an interesting question... I've finally test one whitout honda's driver and I found it less powerfull than my old 2000 which is having 116000km... If a power commander can improve that much, that'd be a nice buy…
  12. V-Tech Adjustement 21 Aug 2015 14:10 To the OP.. if you are in Quebec the VFR1200 is considered a "moto à risque", so you'll pay the $1100 plate. There are 4 2010-11 1200's on sale near me for cheap, but the expensive plate and higher insurance made them a…
  13. V-Tech Adjustement 18 Aug 2015 12:12 Does the 8th Gen have a "Sport Mode"? I thought those were referring to 7th Gen DCT models??? Not sure I'm understanding your question.....what are your concerns regarding the 6th/8th Gen Vtec engagement point and the…
  14. V-Tech Adjustement 17 Aug 2015 21:21 I'm questionning what do I buy between a 8gen or a 7gen, the price is what will change my mind. I've seen a brand new 8gen for a low price (11500$ cad, 14500 with sidecases, taxes, shipping and quickshifter) (regular…
  15. Need To Make A Decision 10 Aug 2015 21:30 I'm in the same boat as you. But I've been able to rode the 1200 a bit more than the 800, and I was alone when I test the 1200, not the 800. What I can say about the 1200 is that it is a beast of power, it can go fast…
  16. Dilemma... Which Model To Buy... 18 Jun 2015 14:01 Find the foot peg height a strange one indeed, If not a poor excuse Vfr 2014 foot peg height 356mm seat 810mm Vfr 2000 351mm 805mm Vfr Vtec 349mm 805mm So technically there is no difference between arse and feet once on…
  17. Dilemma... Which Model To Buy... 16 Jun 2015 15:31 An Aprilia V4 touring bike :ohmy: that would be soo cool (overpricey but.... maybe a hole in my budget would open for that... ) When I tried the new vfr, i haven't pay attention at which position the seat was. It is…
  18. Dilemma... Which Model To Buy... 16 Jun 2015 02:07 Marantz, I know the 5gen is the best one for many. But mine is having 112 000 km right now... And Still in pretty good shape but I want something better and with hard luggage without having the horrible look of givi…
  19. Dilemma... Which Model To Buy... 16 Jun 2015 00:28 I'm now in reflection to change my 00 vfr for a new bike. I've got 3 choice in my mind but can't place my mind. The first one is the new vfr, so damn nice looking, I've rode it with Honda trial but it was only 30…

  22. Plasti Dip 4 Apr 2015 14:28 No you can't sand plasti dip, I've done some kinda decals on mine and that's easy to peel. My nephew just touch it with is boot trying to go on the bike and its start to peel. Ok being a decal, his foot pass directly at…

  27. Low Cost Mod 6 Aug 2014 12:19 raoufhakam Terry The vacuum flapper mod just makes more noise at 3-4000 rpm, more of a honking sound from the intakes. No change to performance that I could feel, so I put it back to stealthy standard. oh, so that's…
  28. Low Cost Mod 5 Aug 2014 12:00 raoufhakam http://johnny.chadda.se/article/pair-and-flapper-mod-with-bonus-snorkel-mod-for-vfr/ Ok I've donne this yesterday, the change in sound is nice :) I just haven't been able to find the connector as seen on this…
  29. Low Cost Mod 4 Aug 2014 13:56 deltaboxii Replace the stock crap tires with something more modern. Anything is better than the originals. Tires are always one of the most noticeable and easy upgrades. Good luck! Done a long time ago, my bike is 106k.…
  30. Low Cost Mod 4 Aug 2014 02:49 Thanks raoufhakam! I'll look into this mod this week, seems really easy to do.
  31. No Low Beam 1 Aug 2014 18:46 I had a similar trouble but with high beam. It was the small spring in the switch which was not strong enough to keep the contact. Just place another one and no more problem.
  32. Low Cost Mod 1 Aug 2014 18:40 Skids Remove the snorkel, disable the Flapper Valve & disconnect the PAIR valves. All free. Then sync the Starter Valves. But the snorkel did not help getting air from the front? What does the Flapper alve do?
  33. Low Cost Mod 1 Aug 2014 14:50 Hi there, I was thinking at some low cost mod I could do on my VFR that could improve it's performance or drivability. Got any idea?
  34. High Beam 11 May 2014 05:05 open the switch and spray with contact cleaner,then spray with acf50 or similar, worked on mine, it's like a new switch now. It was not exactly that, but it help me found the trouble. In the button, there is a small…
  35. High Beam 9 May 2014 00:40 Thanks! I'll look at that this week-end. Hopping it's only that! :)
  36. High Beam 8 May 2014 16:14 When I buy my VFR, there was only 1 low beam working and no one on high beam. So I've change my bulb and I still didn't have high beam working... One connector was changed and was a bit melted. The other one is having a…
