  1. Still Waiting On The Fricken White Side Bags.............. 31 Aug 2015 05:27 Thanks for the info. I know Kappa and Givi. 38 inches is about as wide as my R1200GS with Adventure luggage. That's quite wide. Interesting. Will have to think more about this. Thanks again, very much appreciated!
  2. Still Waiting On The Fricken White Side Bags.............. 21 Aug 2015 18:40 Regarding the V35 on the VFR, I'm again looking at a trip down memory lane and maybe getting a VFR as a second bike (I had a '93 in the 90s and loved it). Rear view with side cases mounted: How wide is this setup?…
  3. 12 Years... (Vfr Calling) 13 Aug 2015 12:02 None of my bikes are bolt upright actually. The GS has a very slight forward lean, although I can (unfortunately) slump down. The 2013 is my wife's bike and it has a distinct forward lean for her. I also have a 2015…
  4. 12 Years... (Vfr Calling) 13 Aug 2015 08:24 One of the problems I often see that leads to sore backside and lower back are handlebar risers. They are about the worst addition that can be done for a sustainable seating position for a person with a halfway healthy…

  6. Checked Out The 8Th Gen Today And.... 1 Aug 2014 20:22 CornerCarver It is not absurd to think that Honda could produce a reliable VFR800 based motorcycle that has a tractable 130Hp at the wheel without the need to exceed 12,000 RPM The thing is: Honda obviously doesn't want…
  7. Checked Out The 8Th Gen Today And.... 31 Jul 2014 16:02 thor294 I guess no one likes to go to the track? With a 240kg tourer? Sure, sightseeing on Nürburgring ... If I want to go really fast on the track I get a proper track bike, which will not be based on a tourer.
  8. 105Bhp 23 Jul 2014 03:02 theelf amazing 1986 90hp---- only 10 more hp and 13k for the new one- brain dead :beatdeadhorse:
  9. 105Bhp 22 Jul 2014 20:39 Rear wheel vs. crank. Manufacturer numbers are crank numbers, there is quite some loss in the whole drive train. Some bikes are closer to manufacturer numbers and some manufacturers are a more conservative than others.
  10. But Why? Who's Going To Buy One? Nobody. 17 Jul 2014 22:44 Pathetic in the eyes of people who like power when they want it :) Hmm. Isn't it pathetic to buy a bike you know is not tuned for performance? I'm really not getting it. If you want more power, buy a different bike.…
