  1. 4th Gen CBR1000rr Tail Swap 16 Apr 2018 17:50 15 minutes ago, Dutchy Indeed, the muffler could be a but shorter, but hey, that's what special build are for eh? Agreed. I think that needs to come in quite a bit.
  2. Power Commander V and Auto Tune install 15 Apr 2018 21:01 Found this on the Power Commander website: http://www.powercommander.com/powercommander/products/AutoTune/powercommander_autotune.aspx " To use these kits your exhaust must have an 18mm bung installed " And came across…
  3. Power Commander V and Auto Tune install 28 Mar 2018 17:39 Has anyone installed a PCV and Auto Tune on the 1200 yet? I'm curious if I need to weld a bung hole for the O2 sensor, or if I could remove the stock ones installed and use them instead. I'm not too sure if there's a…
  4. Honda Heated Grips 11 Mar 2016 08:50 So I thought I'd finally update this topic for anyone that cares, or has the same issue I did. I managed to fix the problem in December, and it wasn't any of the parts that failed which people suggested. Instead it was…
  5. Mirror Snapped Off By Passing Car 10 Mar 2016 19:35 haha, never know....stranger things have happened Elfreako, are you replacing the WHOLE mirror? If so, can I buy this broken one off you? I want to commit a frankenstein experiment on it :) Sorry John, I've only bought…
  6. Mirror Snapped Off By Passing Car 28 Feb 2016 12:03 Regardless of fault, did he stop and exchange details with you? Not doing so is an offense under s.170 RTA 1988. If details were not exchanged at the scene, each driver, including you, is required to report the incident…
  7. 15Mpg? Omg...fml 28 Feb 2016 11:55 Hey mate, Yeah, just like me - rarely leave 2nd. I reckon I'm going to give it two more weeks and see what the average MPG is. If it's awful, I'll be putting the bike away and only using it for long rides out. The Honda…
  8. 15Mpg? Omg...fml 27 Feb 2016 17:36 I haven't bothered to read the 3 pages of reply here, but I'll give you my 2p anyway, so forgive my ignorance if something has already been mentioned. I also live in London, zone 2. I have to travel from the west to the…
  9. Mirror Snapped Off By Passing Car 27 Feb 2016 17:19 I ran this video thru a number of people at work, and just like here the opinions on who's at fault vary. I can partially understand those who say 50/50, but I still don't see it being my fault completely when he had to…
  10. Mirror Snapped Off By Passing Car 27 Feb 2016 10:59 https://youtu.be/VPnUdUAUO40 According to this guy I was at fault, regardless that he moved into my lane forcing me over, and when I moved back into my right wheel track he took my mirror off. He refuses to pay and…
  11. Honda Heated Grips 6 Aug 2015 16:38 hi all, was hoping to revive this post again. long story short; i posted an issue with my electrics on this site a few weeks back that has had no replies. basically my stator burnt out and i had to get it replaced. my…

  13. If You Have More Than 50,000 Miles Or 80,000 Km On Your Vfr1200 26 Mar 2015 22:48 Bought my bike at 8,500 miles in May 2014, current mileage is 15,466 and performed the following: front wheel @ 9,374 engine oil & filter @ 9,386 front brake pads @ 9,660 final drive oil @ 9,862 rear wheel (massive…
  14. Honda Heated Grips 1 Nov 2014 14:03 Cheers guys. I've discovered that whoever installed them put the rubber cover on the wrong way. I pulled it apart like the above photo and found evidence of water leakage and 'slight' corrosion. I cleaned it up, used…
  15. Honda Heated Grips 29 Oct 2014 09:40 Cheers for that. I pulled apart the cabling/tape near the handlebars and found no issues. Had a squiz where it connects to the charge adapter thing, seems OK. I haven't been able to look at the controller yet, that's…
  16. Honda Heated Grips 19 Oct 2014 17:32 if you read user manual for this grips (not installation manual), it says that repeated flash indicates low battery. Basically heated grips control switch also serves as low battery indicator. A few things can be…
  17. Honda Heated Grips 7 Oct 2014 22:02 I've uploaded a video to help show what's happening: http://youtu.be/N9P609Q19VI
  18. Honda Heated Grips 7 Oct 2014 17:45 Hi All, just wondering if anyone else has this issue, or if it's just me. I have a second hand 2010 model that was already fitted with original Honda heated grips. They work quite well, apart from when they get wet.…
  19. Alcantara Seat 28 Sep 2014 18:33 In addition to disengaging the exhaust flapper, someone mentioned they also removed the gold triangle valve cover to get better sound. I've literally just done it to mine now, but haven't had a chance to take it for a…
