  1. Headlight Relay wired wrong! 15 Apr 2017 04:27 Amoreira88 [image: c3611d939bb44c0b64c6595d0a216fc2.jpg] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Ahh yes, it all makes sense now... :P Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. MotoGP 2017 season talk SPOILER ALERT 12 Apr 2017 23:57 I'm not convinced there's anything worse about this years Honda bike than last years. Marquez choose the wrong tire in Qatar. He was fast in Argentina, but crashed. I like Pedrosa but he's been slow most races for the…
  3. Heli Bars for 8th Gen - need R&D bike 12 Apr 2017 23:47 Hmm... I was expecting something different from the MotoPumps riser. Has anyone had their hands on both and can tell if there's any difference between Helibar and Motopumps risers?
  4. Locks 11 Apr 2017 03:37 I use Abus Granit Detecto X-Plus 8077 Alarm Disc Lock. It's not too sensitive. Loud noise doesn't set it off - requires bike to be bumped. It isn't particularly loud, but is a nice deterrent. I've only used it for one…
  5. Quick Shifter Experiences 3 Mar 2017 23:26 Looks like the difference is the bar on the inside for the quick shifter reduces how far in the foot can move. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. Tracked the 8th Gen over the weekend 1 Mar 2017 01:09 Great pics! Later this year I plan on doing my first track day ever and it'll be on my 8th gen VFR800 :)
  7. Ducati supersport 1 Mar 2017 00:49 The closest competitor to the Ducati Supersport is the Suzuki GSX-S1000F. VFR800 is clearly a step down in power, weight, and cost. Suzuki stats: 459 lb, $11k, 135 hp, 75 lb-torque. Ducati stats: 462 lb, $13k-15k, 113…
  8. Ducati supersport 20 Feb 2017 21:20 lazyeye I think Ducati hit the mark with this. I dare say its like the more attractive cousin to the 8th gen Interceptor. 8th gen looks better. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. New And Improved Alternative Ram Mount 14 Feb 2017 20:24 artpongs Duc, Thanks for the pictures. What is that telephone wire next to the right ram ball mount for? I currently have 2 of those USB adapters one for the Hawk and VFR but not installed yet. I currently just have the…
  10. Ducati Supersport 3 Feb 2017 02:29 I don't like the headlight... I think 8th gen looks better :p Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. Victory Motorcycles to close 11 Jan 2017 04:17 From other forums I've read Indian was out selling Victory by a factor of five. Victory sales have been in deliberate since 2012. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. Exhaust - Akrapovic or Arrow? 13 Nov 2016 01:43 Rambler358 Would love to hear a sound clip of your Scorpion! Here's a YouTube vid from the manufacturer. With the baffle in its about the same volume as stock but slightly lower volume. I haven't tried baffle out…
  13. Exhaust - Akrapovic or Arrow? 12 Nov 2016 13:47 Carbon fiber baby! I have the one from Scorpion. https://flic.kr/p/LaAKyz Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. 8th gen minor updates for 2017 12 Nov 2016 13:41 I don't know what he's saying but both bikes look great. I love that they are continuing the 8th gen :) They need to bring the cross runner to the US - one of the best looking adventure bikes. Sent from my iPhone using…
  15. Cold Storage 1 Nov 2016 18:14 adsrox0r My bikes are happy through British winters down to -7 Celcius. One thing I will say though is don't take the advice to 'fire it up once a month'. That just encourages the development of internal condensation,…
  16. Cold Storage 25 Oct 2016 15:13 superfunkomatic When I used to store my bikes in an unheated garage I'd do the following: change oil, put in fuel stabilizer, get the bike off the ground to keep the tires from developing flat spots, throw on a cover…
  17. Heli Bars for 8th Gen - need R&D bike 12 Oct 2016 17:38 Any news about this?
  18. Recommended solutions to reduce wind noise 18 Sep 2016 14:48 Hosspower Took the Bose Active noise canceling on the highway today up to about 80mph. I was actually surprised they weren't quieter. However the sound level was near perfection for me. A little bit of noise including…
  19. Lets dream a bit 6 Sep 2016 23:12 I'd get different types of bikes for all situations. Keep 2014 VFR800 BMW K1600 GT for touring Honda CRF230F Suzuki SV650 Grom Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Picture Thread 15 Aug 2016 00:43 This weekend installed Scorpion exhaust and MRA touring clip-on screen. I'll only use the clip-on screen for long rides at +75+ mph high way - don't need it all the time. [image: 28369184284_d0745bd066_b.jpg] [image:…
  21. Screen removal / replacement instructions 26 Jun 2016 23:21 fink Cheers for that unfortunately I spend most of the time at 70 + and rarely have chin on tank. Link below is for reviews of touring windshields.…
  22. Screen removal / replacement instructions 26 Jun 2016 13:30 fink How much difference does it make compared to original screen. I have the racing Puig screen (not touring). It's an inch longer. Noticeably better, especially when tucked (quieter, better visibility because top…
  23. Screen removal / replacement instructions 23 Jun 2016 21:27 WulfVFR [image: DSC_0145.JPG] [image: DSC_0146.JPG] I was able to remove screen and install new one _without_ fully removing any pieces of dash. I undid the five tabs and the two screws (labeled as item 1 in the…
