All 40- VFR decal Grum, 6/21/2021 at 7:30 AM Vfr1200 looking something like this.......awesome project. [image: IMG_6490.JPG] Now I want to paint my VFR800!
- 97 vfr750 spark mystery. Awesome! Glad it was figured out! Thanks to Grum and his suspicion of the clutch bumps! First time I heard of it. Good info to keep in mind now. Weird issue on the clutch tho. Especially if you see the clutch plates…
- For those who have a Sargent seat... VFRXX, 1/7/2021 at 1:44 PM The front is bolted down in the rear? Unless I missed something, it looks like the rear just has tabs that fit under the crossbar. I gotta look again I stand corrected. It has reverse hooks on…
- For those who have a Sargent seat... Actually, the seat is made to be used without the rear seat. It is even advertised on their site. The front is bolted down in the rear. The rear section has tangs that go under the front seat then locks in place by the…
- 5th gen rear brake adapter - interest check 31 minutes ago, ggathagan Aloha, Eric Earlier in the conversation, Dangeruss had asked about relocating the mount points to avoid having to dremel the brake pads. Did you ever come to a conclusion, one way or another?…
- 5th gen rear brake adapter - interest check 21 hours ago, ggathagan Aloha, Eric Can I still order this adapter for a 32G caliper? Yes. PM for payment info.
- 5th gen rear brake adapter - interest check 2nd part done and ready to ship!
- 5th gen rear brake adapter - interest check [image: 20200901_221320.thumb.jpg.87249d2d9916748fcf395755aca284d5.jpg] First part is done. I've made a few adjustments and I'll make the second one tomorrow night.
- 5th gen rear brake adapter - interest check Adapter with 4 bolts = 1.6 oz. P34 caliper with pads = 10.9 oz. Total = 12.5 oz. I will have time this week to machine the first two parts for P34 calipers. New stainless bolt kits ordered as well. Stay tuned.
- 5th gen rear brake adapter - interest check I can weigh the new calipers and bracket if someone else can weigh the OEM caliper. Remember, there are other items removed if de-linking the brakes (extra lines, hard lines, joints, etc). Also, someone else will have…
- 5th gen rear brake adapter - interest check This makes two. Thanks Tirso! 1. @Dangeruss - P32g. Dep rcvd. 2. @RVFR - 3. @Tirso - P34c. Dep rcvd. 4. @Slo1 -
- 5th gen rear brake adapter - interest check 9 minutes ago, Dangeruss Deposit sent for P32G. Thanks! Awesome! Thanks! 1. @Dangeruss - P32g. Dep rcvd. 2. @RVFR - 3. @Tirso - P34c. 4. @Slo1 -
- 5th gen rear brake adapter - interest check Thanks for those drawings! It confirms my findings with the 3D parts. So, it still means two different adapters. No difference to me since I machine them one at a time anyway. I feel this is a good time to see if I can…
- 5th gen rear brake adapter - interest check For the people interested in this adapter, please state which caliper you have or intend to get. It's looking like a version for each is needed. I made the change to move it inboard and it was more involved than first…
- 5th gen rear brake adapter - interest check 24 minutes ago, Dangeruss Nice progress! Curious if you were able to move the caliper inboard enough to get the whole pad inside the OD of the rotor to accomodate using a new rotor and not having to trim pads. Thanks!…
- 5th gen rear brake adapter - interest check 7 hours ago, RVFR Interesting find this with a different bleeder & line hook up…
- 5th gen rear brake adapter - interest check Tirso is sending me a P34 caliper to design around to. This version will clear both. The P34 will have a 50mm wide pad opposed to the P32 40mm pad. As noted by someone else, please consider sizing the master to match.…
- 5th gen rear brake adapter - interest check A year ago I went down the path of de-linking my VFR brake system. The front brakes were pretty straight forward using the VTR setup. However, in the rear, it was a bit more involved. I didn't want to use the OEM…
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA I ordered one from a supplier and it indeed was the "big mouth" version. The K&N that came with the bike was the older one with less area. Still good but I wanted max air flow. So, I just ended up selling. I'm thinking…
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA I should have mine on Monday as well as a PC3 on Wednesday. Getting her prepped this weekend.
- Hard Bags for a '98 5 hours ago, Dutchy Neatly done, but our "finest" would pull you over pronto as the licence plate is obscured. Hard to see how/if he supported that section..... If it is just the struts at angle towards the passenger…
- Hard Bags for a '98 I'm currently modifying the (later style) Givi racks to only mount side bags. I removed the handles and top plate brackets to make a cleaner bracket. I don't plan to take passengers or use a top case. It looks less…
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA Money sent! I can now start removing the old headers. Hope everyone follows thru now!
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA Any update on the 5th gen headers? Has it started yet?
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA Is there an expiration date for this offer? I would rather hold off on the map until I get a PC3 and even install the headers, which may not happen until spring anyway. I won't have a need for the map until then.
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA Good, that's the most flexible route as unused ones can just be plugged with a cap.
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA What is being assembled as far as O2 bungs? Is there options we need to decide on? I know the question was asked but I can't remember the answer to it.
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA sfdownhill, 10/11/2019 at 1:55 AM Going forward, Wade has also finally agreed to build runs of as few as 6 sets of headers, down from a minimum order of 15 units. Because of this, those who have placed deposits for 5/6…
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA So still waiting to see how far off we are on kicking off the next batch for the 5g headers. How many do we have with deposits or how many more do we need? This season or next?
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA With all the talk of the one 5th gen pipe interference with the fairing cover, will it or can it be corrected in the next production batch run?
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA I've put my deposit for a set of 5th gen headers! Took plunge and will set aside for this winter project, along with upgraded suspension. How many is this now on the 5g header list? How about we just make an updated…
- 5th Gen exhaust bracket to eliminate rear pegs Both my brackets are still whole and removed. High mount TBR is mounted with small hidden bracket and notched fairing. I used a choke cable to release the rear Sargent seat and don't have a need for a helmet lock.
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA Now, I'm wondering how many buyers they have for the next run of 5th gen. headers. I'm on the fence for them. I'm riding my bike now and not sure about wanting to take it apart again. Maybe, it'll be a winter project if…
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA I'm following now! Nice job to all those involved in prototyping, testing and production! Looks like I'm just in time for the 3rd (or 2nd?) 5/6 Gen batch run. What is the timing for these to complete and ship and what…
- Rear Brake Hanger 4th and 5th gen You should. Good printers are now about $200. It used to be $500 was the starting price.
- Rear Brake Hanger 4th and 5th gen Autodesk Fusion 360 is cloud based and designs are easily shared. The shop making the parts also happens to use the same software. Some design details are specific to 3D. So going from 3D (additive) to CNC…
- Rear Brake Hanger 4th and 5th gen I started to remove the rearsets to change them out for 929 type using Sebs adapters. I end up de-linking and swapping out the brake system! The rear system presented a bigger challenge than front as I didn't want to…
- Rear Brake Hanger 4th and 5th gen Put me on the list. I have a 5th gen. I'll take whatever the majority picks (underslung?).
- Luggage Rack Options KanadianKen, 3/31/2018 at 8:14 PM Some guy on vfrd makes and sells Solo Racks. 😄 I am interested and sent you a PM. Hopefully, you still have a 5th gen version left.
- Luggage Rack Options I have a set of arms and a MonoLock plate for sale if you want to fab your own. $50 + ship.
