- May sell my '14 I've owned my 2014 for a little less then a year and I'm thinking it may be time to sell. Not for any other reason other then my kids are beyond keeping me busy. I'm in WI, bought the bike for 8k out the door with the…
- Coming from an FZ-07 Rectaltronics, 5/23/2017 at 11:01 PM Totally worth a fly 'n ride. If I had the space I'd pick up a "spare" right now! Ah yeah I bought one right after I posted on here.
- Which One? Tell him you will take a flight there to buy. Tell him $2900 out the door. All fluids need to be changed. Chain lubed. And R/R needs to be checked and have paperwork verified. If he says no. Save yourself the trip. JMO.
- 8Th Gen Tail Tidy You have 9 left? How much shipped to 53119 in Wisconsin, that is 1.?
- All wired up for Zumo, radar detector, and my heated gear That looks awesome. Curious as to what the side knobs and back plug things are?
- VFR in WV Very cool! Your hands have the tingles when you reference punishment? Is your back luggage the stock honda accessory?
- Getting back in the saddle. Very cool. You most likely got the showroom one. Mind me asking what cost you walking out the door ?
- Getting back in the saddle. Scoops what part of WI? When did you pick it up and color? I got mine 3 wks ago. There were 2 white and a red left. Red had a sold sticker but I wanted the white. I have same sentiment as you. Great bike!
- Getting back in the saddle. GatorGreg, 6/5/2017 at 10:03 PM Get the VIN and see if a Honda dealer's service department can give you any info. I bought a used Ninja 300 a few years ago and the service department at the dealer was able to give me…
- Getting back in the saddle. From my research ABS is a personal choice. Me, coming from all 1970s Honda's ABS wasn't needed.Dont get me wrong, I would have purchased the deluxe but all the dealers are sold out of them. I've also talked to my…
- Getting back in the saddle. I purchased my New 2014 VFR base model for $8006 out the door to include the 1 yr manufactures warranty and another 4 yr unlimited mileage full warranty. I see you are in OH. If you look at Cedar Creek motors in WI you…
- MotoPumps risers Quick, easy question. Do these look correct?
- 8th gen tank and fairing protector (PICS) 12 hours ago, fink Have clear Ventura shield fitted on mine. http://www.invisiblepatterns.co.uk/shop/Honda-VFR-800-2001-2009.html Would you mind snapping a pic? I know it's clear but I'm curious how the edges look.
- Recommended 600 mile break in 3 minutes ago, jhenley17 I'm sure they check the same things that the manual suggests. I didn't bring mine in. I can give the bike a half-hearted once-over myself. Coming up on 13k and it hasn't complained. Did you…
- 8th gen tank and fairing protector (PICS) Do any of you have 3m or other body/tank protectors? If you all do may you please share a picture? I'm debating if I want to put the 3m carbon fiber protector tape on the lower ends of the fairing and tank.
- Recommended 600 mile break in I'm nearing 300 miles after my first weekend. My wrist hurt so I ordered the risers. Think if I install before the 600 mile, they would still check that over too?
- Recommended 600 mile break in 10 minutes ago, GatorGreg Thats my understanding as well. When I got the receipt for my 600 mile service I asked them to have the mechanic jot down everything he did/inspected. If I can figure out where I put it i'll…
- Recommended 600 mile break in Thanks Checksix. You confirmed what I thought. 200 for an oil change! Sheesh!
- Recommended 600 mile break in As a new '14 owner I was told I need to come in at 600 miles to the first oil change and break in check up. I asked what the cost would be and they said for the first check up it will be roughly 180-200$! Is it really…
- Is my bike too &@#%ing loud? Does anyone have a Werkes exhaust on their 8th gen ?
- Pick up day from the dealership 45 minutes ago, Bent Having had a 5th, 6th, and now 8th gen., the low end is much more useable making nearly the entire rpm range more "available and useable". This is especially good in mountain twisties. The bike can…
- Pick up day from the dealership Picked up my first ever brand new 0 mileage bike. Shoot first new anything for me. I put on a little over 100 miles and it's a blast. The low end power seems much different from my 5th gen I had. Also the Vtec caught me…
- Close out sales 14' and 15' 15 hours ago, Grum Congratulations Tews19, so have you purchased the standard and not the Deluxe as I can't see any centre stand? Before you leave the shop with it make sure you have your rear seat cowl, toolkit, and…
- Close out sales 14' and 15' So I ended up with the '14. I didn't get the best deal out there but I walked out the door at $7600 after taxes, title, their stupid fees and freight. I was offered the extended unlimited Honda 4 yr warranty for $998…
- Close out sales 14' and 15' Mind sharing what you were able to get the extended warranty down to? Is there a deductible for the extended warranty? Once again thanks to everyone who has replied to this thread. I'm heading to the dealership tomorrow…
- Close out sales 14' and 15' 12 hours ago, Rectaltronics If nothing else, purchase time is a good opportunity to get accessories locally at prices that are competitive or even slightly better than mail order. I got my side cases with lock bits and…
- Close out sales 14' and 15' 9 minutes ago, LucaBrasi Sure thing - It was a two hour drive for me as well - but well worth it. I couldn't find but a few close to me, and they were running near full MSRP. I *believe* the 2014 and 2015 are the same…
- Close out sales 14' and 15' I was able to contact two dealers and of course all deluxe models are now gone. I was able to find a new 14' for 6k plus their 579 set up fee. The bike would come with a 1 yr Honda warranty. Sportland2 gave me an out…
- Close out sales 14' and 15' 15 minutes ago, LucaBrasi Privateer - I see you're in WI - check out cedarcreek motorsport if you're close, they'll deal even on the discounted price. Tell 'em what you want and what you are willing to pay. Worked for…
- Close out sales 14' and 15' Awesome feedback guys! I really appreciate. Now if I go for the '15 what other items may I ask for free? This would be some cat and mouse going back and forth I'm sure but I know someone has asked and received?
- Close out sales 14' and 15' I recently sold my 99 VFR and the bike was simply awesome. I'm kicking myself for selling it and now I'm looking to purchase another vfr. I would really like to buy another 99' however I'm seeing lots of '14 and '15…
- Coming from an FZ-07 Awesome purchase! The dealers near me are trying to unload new 14' and 15' models for 6400$ for base model and 6800$ for the deluxe. I sold my 99 Vfr a month ago and regret it. Now that I see what you had to say I may…
- Wisconsin Riders? Glad to hear you made it back in one piece. This has been the weirdest spring ever. Saturday it rained, snowed, became sunny and the snow melted, then it rained, than more snow... Sunday it was around 60! Now this AM it…
- Wisconsin Riders? WI here as well. In Waukesha... To early for me to ride as we are in the middle of a move to our new house. I am interested near the end of April so hit me up if you would like. Nick
- Orange Box So the winter hibernation has come to an end. I need to clean the orange box where the wires go into. What's the easiest way to do this? Not sure why my pics didn't post. Attached Images [image: 20160329_133826.jpg]…
- GET BENT!!! Finally found this bike!!!!!!!!! This is the absolute best looking VFR IMO. LOVE IT! Now do you mind if I copy the paint scheme?
- 01 Vfr 800 Value Estimate wagzhp Allstate just did a post accident appraisal on my 99, and valued the bike at $3750. And that's on a bike that has 96000 miles on the odometer! But I've got new tires, chain, sprockets, upgraded suspension, and a…
- Spiegler LSL vs Heli bars Hey Fasterpermits, How tall are you? The riding position looks comfortable but reminds me of my 71 750 almost for position in your video. I like my Helibars but I am short at 5'9 with I guess long arms??? Not sure but…

- Pirelli Angel Gt - Kebrider Initial Report Thanks luvtoleanit. I like the rear at 38. I may bump the front up
- 99 White Vfr This is what I am talking about..... The white makes the VFR just stand out! Absolutely sick bikes.
- 99 White Vfr All bikes look great. White seems to be the best color that never was for the years it did not come from the factory. I have never liked white but a white VFR speaks to me. I am for sure going to powder coat the wheels…
- 99 White Vfr Has anyone repainted a 99 VFR white? I know there is no need to paint but the white VFR's are my favorite. Anyone have any pics of this year painted white? Or with the wheels Powder coated white?
- Pirelli Angel Gt - Kebrider Initial Report I have these tires and at times they seem bit squirrelly. This is only when it is hot. I even had tar somehow stay on the tire. I checked the pressure and the front was at 36 rear was at 42????? I lowered the front to…
- 1K Trek This Thursday To The Up Can anyone help me with loading pics? I have been trying for over a day and every file states it is to large?
