- OEM Windscreen Deflector with Aftermarket Windscreen? andy I have a VStream touring shield that directs the air differently than the original, but noisier than stock and doesn't keep the wind blast from hitting my helmet. I've been disappointed. I hoped it would be quiet…
- New Member - New Questions 2 hours ago, MackerVFRR I own an RC, the 1200 and an ST - so by design my garage contains 3 levels of bar height. The stock VFR is the sweet spot IMO. The RC clip-ons are high compared with modern supersports, but still…

- Increasing Comfort- seat swap/handle bar risers Good Morning, Congrats on your new VFR!. Before you modify your GT into a "cruiser" consider a couple of things. The ergos on the vfr require a whole lot of different muscles than you're accustomed to using. Try to…
