All 39- Bar risers and lowered pegs I had lowered pegs and bar risers on my (now-sold) 2014 VFR and like the egos much better than stock. My bar risers were 3/4 inch I believe, which weren't perfect, but better than stock. My 62 year old back (at the…
- VFR On the Dragon After moving out of Illinois, I now live about 30 minutes from the Dragon and the Cherohala Skyway. Moonshiner 28 is another great road in the area. Truthfully there are so many good roads here I've gotten to the point…
- May sell my '14 It's a hard bike to replace in terms of filling so many niche's, give it a long thought before you pull the trigger.
- Two things I learned while riding today I'm with ya on the gear indicator. I've got a Ducati Monster that has no gear indicator, I love the bike, but I often think "what the hell gear am I in?"
- Pilot seat recommendations This isn't going to change your seat, but it will cost you nothing. Set the rear of the OEM pilot seat on the lowest setting and the front of the seat on the high setting. Flattens the riding position. Kept me from…
- How old are VFR owners? Looking at the data (as limited as it is) would lead me to believe that VFR owners are previous owners of all-out-sport-bikes, that wanted something less hard edged, without getting away from that style of bike…
- How old are VFR owners? Happy birthday Bloke
- Argh This kind of stuff really burns me, how someone could knowingly damage someone else's property and pretend it didn't happen if they think they can get away with it, needs to be punished. Since the police are little help…
- Recommended 600 mile break in Same here Driver - I intend to let the dealer do the 600 mile maintenance and I'll do my own oil changes going forward. But giving them a chance to do a once-over initially isn't a bad idea.
- Pick up day from the dealership Well done Tews! Great looking bike
- Close out sales 14' and 15' I think it's 2 years unlimited miles.
- Close out sales 14' and 15' 12 hours ago, Tews19 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…
- Close out sales 14' and 15' 15 minutes ago, Tews19 Thanks CR for taking the time to respond! I am sure you may not feel comfortable sharing your price but was it better then 7800 out the door? Yes BUT - I paid $7,310 but there are a few things to…
- Close out sales 14' and 15' 1 hour ago, Tews19 Yes I contacted them last night. Its roughly 1.5 hrs from me. They only have base models left. Mind me asking what you all got with your purchase as far as gear and a deal? I am so close to pulling…
- Close out sales 14' and 15' 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 me.
- Opinion Request: 2nd bike to compliment the viffer 3 hours ago, jhenley17 I don't know why anyone would buy a Harley. Someone else can do it better for less money, and you don't have to run the risk of being thought of as a Harley die-hard idiot that loves open pipes…
- Opinion Request: 2nd bike to compliment the viffer Anyone buy a naked Harley as a second bike to the VFR? I'm thinking something in the Sportster family like the 1200 Custom
- DLX Break In Very nice pictures, thanks for posting. And what a great way to break in a bike. Nice helmet by the way - I have the same helmet
- Coming from an FZ-07 I'm going to give this a try, just filled up with premium today
- Coming from an FZ-07 Hach - I seriously considered an FZ-07 before buying the VFR. But I'm not a previous owner of an FZ-07, so I'm not sure if my observations will help. You're gaining about 100 lbs with the VFR so loss of flickability is…
- Wow I've got a couple posts before this one, just wanted to say hello to everyone and what an incredible bike the VFR is. I had it out today for ~100 miles. Sunny, windy, about 57, running in some rural areas today. Without…
- Hi from Italy Benvenuto Alessandro! Quelli sono bei motocicli!
- New 8th gen - $6,500!! 18 hours ago, GatorGreg I think it's great that people are getting good deals but at what point do we no longer consider a leftover 2014 model "new". I mean, if we fast forward 3 more years to the year 2020 and see a…
- Bar riser questions RC79Scott, 4/21/2017 at 7:29 PM I've got the Sidetrax version of these in black: http://www.knightdesignllc.com/Products/Motorcycle/Honda/VFR800/Honda-10-VFR800F-1-Front-Foot-Pegs.html I used them for a while, but…
- Should dealers provide a bike setup service...? XRM, 4/20/2017 at 10:42 PM I've noticed many top bicycle shops provide a scientific fitment service for their customers.. Motorcycle dealers should provide this service too...! They should be able to make adjustments to…
- How old are VFR owners? Great looking bike Max - congratulations.
- Bar riser questions Thanks Thumper - Got mine installed last night, haven't had a chance to try out the difference yet, but it seems like it's going to be just what I was looking for. Thanks for the advice, you were right, no need to…
- Bar riser questions 4 hours ago, Audible I'm 5ft 8 tall and have my 8th gen with the seat at the lower position and have the 0.95 motopumps spacers fitted. When sitting on the bike in the riding position and with my neck/head straight, I'm…
- How old are VFR owners? I'm firing my market research rep that chose those age groups immediately! :blush:
- Locks Thanks Quibble - I'll check it out.
- Locks What kind of locks are owners using for their VFRs? I was looking a a Krypotonite chain maybe but thought I'd ask before I bought anything. Thanks
- Ducati supersport Alaskan, 2/19/2017 at 11:05 AM To my eyes it looks virtually indistinguishable from the 8th Gen VFR. I'm with Alaskan on this one - The Ducati styling looks like they used the 8th gen VFR as a template. Both very good…
- How old are VFR owners? 8 hours ago, SimonT Just picked up a 2014 DLX on Friday, a similar sweet deal..rode 100 miles home in the pouring rain and still couldn't have been happier. Congratulations on the purchase Simon!
- How old are VFR owners? Thanks Lee - Yup the center stand was $60, they did the installation as part of the dealer prep & doc fees.
- How old are VFR owners? I know no one has been losing any sleep over my follow up to checking out the VFR this past week. But since I started this poll, I thought I'd provide an update. It took a week longer than anticipated but I was…
- How old are VFR owners? 61 in June
- How old are VFR owners? Hey Africord - I know from your sig that's an 02 and I'm looking at a 2014, but do you have bar risers on your bike? Pegs lowered? Your seating position looks just right.
- How old are VFR owners? Thanks for the welcome! And thanks so much for the responses, really enjoyed the comments, and it solidified my hope that I wasn't too old for the VFR. I'll let ya'll know if I pick it up tomorrow or not. SFDownHill -…
- How old are VFR owners? My first post here - Hi everyone Seriously considering buying a VFR800 this weekend, I'd be getting back into motorcycling after a number of years hiatus. Just curious - how old are the owners of the VFR?
