  1. Happy New Year! I’m back! 12 Jan 2020 04:55 So I googled the mystery parts and they are left and right front turn signal sockets. Why would the previous owner have extra sockets as well as 4 extra lenses?…
  2. Happy New Year! I’m back! 12 Jan 2020 04:40 36 minutes ago, Grum M8. You appear to have scored every accessory for the 8gen under the sun! Couple of power sockets and that box looks like a battery compartment box! Just do a bit of Googling on the part numbers,…
  3. Happy New Year! I’m back! 12 Jan 2020 04:35 32 minutes ago, Grum Yep only for the exhaust side case. Great, thanks.
  4. Happy New Year! I’m back! 12 Jan 2020 03:51 Only the right side (exhaust side) saddle bag had this fabric liner on the bottom - is that normal or should the left saddle bag have it also? Is it just for additional heat shielding on the exhaust side? [image:…
  5. Happy New Year! I’m back! 12 Jan 2020 03:49 I also found these two sealed parts bags in the luggage, it doesn’t say what they are in English and I have no clue what they are - slightly different part numbers on each bag [image:…
  6. Happy New Year! I’m back! 12 Jan 2020 03:44 This was also in the saddle bag luggage,I have no clue what it is. [image: 593C0FFD-46F4-44BF-B678-3B9A1046AB55.jpeg]
  7. Happy New Year! I’m back! 12 Jan 2020 03:42 These look like extra front turn signal lenses? Why would the previous owner have these? [image: 63B852B5-0E36-4E7A-A3C3-66A3FE12A3F9.jpeg]
  8. Happy New Year! I’m back! 12 Jan 2020 03:41 This is some sort of Honda netting, directions are all in Japanese, if you’re familiar with how this is used please let me know: [image: 90C82B17-A202-4339-BA86-86240A3246F2.jpeg] [image:…

  13. Happy New Year! I’m back! 12 Jan 2020 03:31 I opened my saddlebags and found all sorts of great stuff, including a quick shifter! The dealer told me it had a quick shifter but I didn’t realize it wasn’t installed yet, I guess this explains why I couldn’t get it…
  14. Happy New Year! I’m back! 11 Jan 2020 16:38 Thanks Bent and Tiutis, yeah it’s raining lightly today so I may take it out for a quick test in the wet before the football starts. Heres some more pics, the saddle bags are pristine and I’m impressed with their…
  15. Happy New Year! I’m back! 11 Jan 2020 09:09 4 hours ago, Grum Great news Greg, welcome back. Just knew you couldn't be too long without your sweet white lady. You'll have to go get yourself another Delkevic shorty. Now you can get rid that scooter thing, makes…

  18. Happy New Year! I’m back! 11 Jan 2020 08:17 3 hours ago, Samuelx Needs a Gator sticker and a gym girl on the back... 😉 Welcome back... 🙂 LOL, I agree - I have a new (and even hotter!) gym girl and while she loves to ride in my vert she’s unfortunately been…
  19. Happy New Year! I’m back! 11 Jan 2020 02:54 Hey all, I’m back! I missed my old VFR so when I saw this beauty go up for sale at my local dealer I decided to reward myself with another VFR800 for Xmas 🙂 I still have my SMAX scooter (which is awesome) but wow it’s…
  20. She's gone. 31 Dec 2018 17:46 42 minutes ago, thtanner The videos spoke for themselves re:skill level; he is why people cringe when you say "I'm going to buy a motorcycle." I'm just glad he didn't stick around long enough to be a statistic. Good…
  21. She's gone. 31 Dec 2018 16:25 3 hours ago, Nelix Dress it up any way you want, it was obvious the VFR intimidated you. I do thank you for some of the laughs you provided the forum though, I remember the derision you got for posting your video saying…
  22. Another one gone 30 Dec 2018 17:19 Congrats! The power and torque of the S1000R is absolutely amazing - and I love the RWB paint scheme - enjoy! You might get a good laugh from my S1000RR test ride a few years ago 😀 [video:…
  23. She's gone. 30 Dec 2018 17:09 2 hours ago, Nelix Pmsl. Quite simply the VFR was too much bike for you, your level is scooters. No balls. I found a recording of Nelix singing his favorite song - enjoy! 😀 [video:…
  24. She's gone. 30 Dec 2018 09:02 4 hours ago, Bent Gator, you're not being allowed to leave the VFR community gracefully at all so you might as well buy a new one and wear real riding gear to look like a real motorcycle rider. Oh, that's right people…
  25. She's gone. 30 Dec 2018 08:35 6 hours ago, Nelix Lol. Seriously? Best you can do, a cheap dig at my girlfriend? You must be an amazing litigator, "Your honour the defence will base its case on the looks of the plaintiffs partner." When you start…
  26. She's gone. 30 Dec 2018 00:26 1 hour ago, Grum Nice gesture Bent. If I wasn't 15,000miles away I'd do the same. So here's to you Greg, cheers :beer: and best wishes to you, what ever you ride I hope it puts a smile on your dial. I've always enjoyed…
  27. She's gone. 29 Dec 2018 23:11 48 minutes ago, Bent It most definitely was a compliment, Gator! You have always come across as someone that enjoys life because you're comfortable with who you are. Too bad more people aren't that way. Next time you…
  28. She's gone. 29 Dec 2018 22:07 1 minute ago, Nelix I'll take short stature over no balls any day. But ty for playing.😂 Sorry, the balls attached to your obese bearded girlfriend don't count as yours - LOL
  29. She's gone. 29 Dec 2018 22:02 6 minutes ago, Bent If he lived in the mountain twisties, he might still have it. Florida is flat as a pancake but they do have The Mouse. That would make anyone as happy as Gator. BTW, Gator, I think you ARE The Mouse.…
  30. She's gone. 29 Dec 2018 21:58 9 minutes ago, Nelix I think it was obvious to all early on that gator and the VFR were a poor fit. No surprise to me it's sold. The great thing about the VFR is it fits everyone - you're proof that even a midget can…
  31. She's gone. 29 Dec 2018 21:25 I've discovered one thing my SMAX does far better than the VFR 😀 [image: IMG_5167.JPG]
  32. She's gone. 29 Dec 2018 20:57 2 hours ago, fink Just imagine how many vids you could have if you had ever ridden it anywhere. An average of 25 miles per week. Scary. I know I don’t use mine much and have use of another bike for commuting to work,…
  33. She's gone. 28 Dec 2018 20:48 So I was reminiscing over some of my many VFR vids today (what can I say - I'm a hopeless romantic - LOL) and I thought I'd leave you guys with an encore presentation of what I have determined to be my two favorites.…
  34. She's gone. 27 Dec 2018 23:12 5 hours ago, flya750 I had one in a 1993 Nissan Altima, the first year of the Altima. It was very nice. I don't see them too often, I've always thought it was odd not to see them more often? They really are a nice,…
  35. She's gone. 27 Dec 2018 21:07 2 hours ago, flya750 Oh...now damn it. You have to talk english around here. There are old guys that grew up around 3rd Gen's and before.. lol! 😉 I guess I now know what a 'vert' is. BTW, that is a nice Vert! Congrats!…
  36. She's gone. 27 Dec 2018 21:04 3 hours ago, Tiutis The double stickerz; it increasesthe displacement 🙂 I will miss your VFR videos on YT even if it’s all on straight roads. LOL - thanks - I remember doing one stupid vid where I rode like 50 miles…
  37. She's gone. 27 Dec 2018 20:57 6 hours ago, Bent Interesting they describe your bike as a 1200cc...how did you pull that off and not tell us, LOL! I'm losing that loving feeling on my 2014 so next Spring it might be for sale. LOL - I thought everyone…
  38. She's gone. 26 Dec 2018 18:48 14 minutes ago, flya750 I don't know what a Vert is? But I'm sure it is NO HONDA VFR800F. I just missed a deal on a new 2015 VFR800F Deluxe for $5975.00 (year end sale) FRICK!!!! "Vert" is just shorthand for a…
  39. She's gone. 26 Dec 2018 18:14 Interesting - I forgot about B.J. Thomas' original version (I love his "Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head" - one of my favorite songs of all time). According to wiki, his original went to #5 in 1969 and the Blue Swedes'…
  40. She's gone. 26 Dec 2018 17:43 12 minutes ago, mikeswe Ahhh, Bjorn Skifs, he didn't make it in the US so he came home after this one hit. BTW nobody in Sweden knows what "ooga-chaka ooga-ogaa-ooga-chaka" means. LOL - I have no idea what it means…

  42. She's gone. 26 Dec 2018 17:07 3 hours ago, Bent So by what means, media did you sell it through? I know of another one for sale. Sold it to a Honda dealer. I see they are asking $6,995 for it and I must say she looks pretty damn nice in their pics -…
  43. She's gone. 26 Dec 2018 16:41 10 hours ago, flya750 No Way! How do you lose that loving feeling so easy? There has been generations of men who can't shake that feeling? There has to be more to this story than we're being told? 😉 I'm about ready to…
  44. She's gone. 26 Dec 2018 00:59 1 hour ago, Samuelx Wait, who am I supposed to live vicariously though (meeting gym girls and stuff) now??? LOL - sorry about that. You should join the Camaro forum - I met a new gym girl who enjoys going for “topless”…

  48. How to strap down bike in pickup? 28 Oct 2018 22:54 So I took my VFR out for an afternoon blast today for only the second time since I got my scooter and it felt like I was riding an angry white rhino! 😀 I had gotten so used to being able to just pin the throttle back…
  49. Exhaust 28 Oct 2018 14:07 Nicely done!
  50. Exhaust 26 Oct 2018 02:25 1 hour ago, VFROZ Hmmm, according to that dyno, the 8G tops out at just over 190kmh. What a shitbox. I’m guessing they were in 4th gear??? I’ve had mine over 130 mph / 209 kmh (I was in Mexico of course 😀 ) and I think…
