  1. 1999 VFR with a wierd issue ??? 21 Mar 2025 00:30 UP Date: Wow! What a Go figure. It turns out I had a partly like a very little lack of communication with the ECU via the TPS being it was only the very first part of the throttle not telling the ECU what to do with the…
  2. 1999 VFR with a wierd issue ??? 3 Mar 2025 22:42 Up date: after a bit of fiddling I was able to hook up a separate fuel pump & fuel lines to the injector in question on #4 and had it wired in to the VFRs circuit. Once running I turn on the fuel pump and, Wa-la there…
  3. 1999 VFR with a wierd issue ??? 1 Mar 2025 00:45 Yes that's whats throwing me for a loop. Unless.. it's like what I have seen and heard of like when a coil lead is lose or barely on where as the rpms increase so does the the energy. In this case as the rpms rise the…
  4. 1999 VFR with a wierd issue ??? 27 Feb 2025 23:04 Thanks for the Noid thing. That gets me thinking if a digital multi meter may work. Now I'm gong to throw on a an extra injector to see how it actually acts. 😉
  5. 1999 VFR with a wierd issue ??? 27 Feb 2025 00:35 Hi guys Its been awhile since the last conversation. Yet this time it is a crazy one, I''ll do my best to keep it condensed. Last year I got my hands on a very clean low millage VFR that I knew of from a gentlemen that…

  8. Oldie but Goodie 9 Jan 2024 20:49 That's what it says in the VFRW thread, then once at their site I need to understand Dutch. or fnd one that does 😉
  9. Oldie but Goodie 9 Jan 2024 05:13 It's been a while, though busy, I'm not too much out of the loop. Now the fun is, I just landed a nice original owner 86 VF1000r to tinker with that has 60k on it. It has the lower faring but the previous owner didn't…
  10. He was a valued member, a great friend and I will miss him! 11 Oct 2023 16:29 So sad and crazy to think we'll never see Lance again, physically. Yet his spirit is felt in the wind.

  14. Potential Coffman Full Exhaust 24 Nov 2018 19:35 I have a second stock header off a 99. it was thought it would do for a template, but after Gabe looked it over, it deemed he would need to have the bike as well as there's a few little things he thought of and there's…
  15. Potential Coffman Full Exhaust 24 Nov 2018 03:57 3 hours ago, jim v As robborboy posted Coffman makes exactly one complete exhaust system - for the Grom, a single cylinder unfaired bike. When someone rolls up on a VFR Coffman will look at the tightly packaged V4,…

  23. 5th & 6th VFR 800 Header build 31 Oct 2018 04:12 That right there was the actual tipping point, a $1000 for what may be 2-3 hp for the average Joe. Me, I was on a mission, still sorta am. Then landed the unicorn to play with on a dyno with a pc3 and a few air filters.…
