  1. What is the OEM replacement bulb for low and High beam for 6th gen VFR 29 Sep 2019 14:33 I don't think you guys have 9003 or HB2 bulbs over on your side of the pond, but those two designations are interchangeable with H4.
  2. Regulator/Rectifier Fried 26 Jul 2019 12:29 I've heard varying reports that the above volt meter doesn't update the information displayed very often, leading to false readings. Does it rise and fall with the rpm?
  3. Blue Ridge Parkway pic 11 Jul 2019 15:53 That's funny. My father and I did a similar trip to The Dragon. Him on a '95 VFR, me on an '03 SV650S. I also had a brief dismount from the bike, but was able to continue and enjoy the rest of the trip. Still have the…
  4. Grab rail cover caps 11 Apr 2019 14:31 That's where I got mine, as well as the rear cowl. It took a few weeks, as it was out of stock with their supplier. The initial order was damaged, but Partzilla made good on it without a hassle.
  5. Old Tires 2 Apr 2019 20:47 5-6 years is the currently accepted life span of a tire, but that is in a climate controlled environment. Chuck 'em. Lots of rebates going on right now! Avon, Bridgestone, Continental, maybe more. Usually $60 off a set.…
  6. Multiple Bike Disorder (MBD) 25 Mar 2019 23:37 That's a sweet RC51! I'd love to get a bone stock one some day and just keep it forever.
  7. Repairing Scratches with Color Rite 25 Mar 2019 19:09 I got the $35 kit. After a lot of trial and error, I was able to get somewhat acceptable results. (sorry, don't have a pic ATM). You can still see the scratches, but they are less visible, and the black areas that were…
  8. Tires 15 Mar 2019 15:04 Trying out a set of Avon Spirit ST that I got a great deal on this season. If I was buying right now, you can grab a set of Bridgestone T31's for like $180 after rebate from Rocky Mountain.
  9. exhaust 11 Mar 2019 14:44 The PO put a single exit Two Brothers pipe on my bike. It sounds great, but it's definitely not quiet. I took the bike out once without wearing ear plugs, made it about half a mile before I stopped to put them in.
  10. Alpinestars Boots SMX-Plus Size 46 Euro (11.5US) New w/ Tags 9 Feb 2019 13:57 Brand new, got a good deal on them and took a gamble on the size, turns out I need a 47 or 48. Looking to get what I've got into them, which is only $264 (plus shipping). Will deliver within reason (located 45 minutes…
  11. LED Brake / Tail Light Bulb Replacement 2 Jan 2019 09:14 My bad guys, father's bike is a 4th gen 😫

  13. LED Brake / Tail Light Bulb Replacement 1 Jan 2019 18:40 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075G4MDSM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Just got these for my father's 5th gen. I have the 7443 version in my 6th gen. I have been extremely pleased with them thus…
  14. Tires on sale?? 23 Dec 2018 16:57 Yeah, not much going on right now with tires it seems. Gear can be gotten cheap though.
  15. Repairing Scratches with Color Rite 13 Nov 2018 17:49 Has anyone tried repairing deep scratches with the Color Rite kit? I have some scratches on the fairing from when the side stand folded on my. I was thinking that by the time you get the primer, color, and several coats…
  16. So I'm rebuilding my crashed Suzuki SV1000S. 11 Oct 2018 04:06 Looks like you have your work cut out for you! I had an SV650S; sweet little engine, suspension needed some help though.
  17. WHAT DID YOU DO TODAY TO YOUR VFR 6TH GEN ? 8 Oct 2018 21:54 I also just threw a set of MZS levers on the bike. The tolerances are as good or better than the stock levers, and the craftsmanship on them is fantastic. Can't beat the price!
