All 22- Powder coated wheels on 5th Gen I like the look here but my wheels are showing some oxidation so I'm going to powder coat them silver. [image: IMG_20190309_153207059.jpg] [image: IMG_20190130_115441545.jpg]
- Oh so shiny 2000 7 hours ago, cat0020 Personally, I find that having just one foot firmly on the ground is far more stable than trying to tip-toe between two feet during a stop. Just rest your body on one thigh on the seat before you…
- Lowering the 1200? 19 minutes ago, srdjan Consider OEM Lower narrow seat Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk Wish I could try one. I'm leery of spending $200 for the try. That said, my bike came to me with a heated Corbin on it which I…
- Lowering the 1200? 2 hours ago, LookingHard UpArrow, On the off chance that you are not aware of it, if you install lowering links, it might be harder to use the centerstand, depending on the amount of lowering of course. LookingHard…
- Lowering the 1200? 1 hour ago, squirrelman maybe you bought a bike that's too big for you ?? Hell yes I did. Always do. Any other kind observations?
- Lowering the 1200? 19 hours ago, Darrenk https://soupysperformance.com/honda/vfr1200/vfr1200-single-style-threaded-lowering-link.html I can’t tell you if it works or not... Thanks. I'll look into this one. They have used pics for the…
- Lowering the 1200? srdjan, 2/8/2019 at 4:11 AM What's a purpose of lowering? Rear shock could be solution, maybe.. Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk Reach to the ground. I can't back it even on level concrete
- Lowering the 1200? I'd like to bring the rear down an inch or so. How can this be done? As an aside, it's going in for the recall shaft replacement within a week or two.
- Oh so shiny 2000 Well cool news I met up with the seller and bought the OEM seat. On getting home I found that someone had already peeled the rider section and shaved it exactly as I needed, and did a very neat job of it. Saved myself…
- Oh so shiny 2000 1 hour ago, MaxSwell If you are ever near Minneapolis, MN look me up. I have several extra. You can have one for free. I've packaged one for delivery and they are a pain in the neck pack. Plus shipping was around $50 to…
- Oh so shiny 2000 2 hours ago, 9C1 Nice bike - I've got a yellow VFR as well. If you were so inclined, I'd be glad to make you an offer for that yellow rear seat cowl. Going to keep the gang together in case I move it on.
- Oh so shiny 2000 My boot tips barely touch the ground on this bike. I've got to do something to get a bit lower. I'm unwilling to use a lowering link or invest $$$$$ into a shock set up so that leaves shaving the seat as my option. I…
- Oh so shiny 2000 10 hours ago, cat0020 Nice find. Y2K VFR should have black OEM wheels, but silver wheels looks just fine. I picked up my 00 VFR w/13k miles on odo back in 2016 under $3K, now it has over 19k miles, in need of new tires,…
- Oh so shiny 2000 If it will lower me to a 20 BMI it was a bargain at twice the price

- Oh so shiny 2000 2 hours ago, BuzznerSuntrusts Well cared for is right! Congrats on a good find :beer: Yes, they all left the factory with black wheels. Are they stripped or powder coated? Reach up under the headlight and see if the…
- Oh so shiny 2000 13,000 miles on it and I'm the third owner. Owners manual, service manual, tool kit, original retail sales paperwork and buyers check stub are in hand. Paid for but need to arrange transit to my home 6 hours away. It's…

- Big H Issued A Recall On Vfr1200F And Vfr1200X Re:drive-Shafts 10 hours ago, vfr1200f Great looking bike... looks like new 😛 ... i'm just teasing ya'. Also, i noticed it's a DCT. Enjoy! My 18 Wing has DCT, I only ride it in manual mode and enjoy it in sport mode. I plan to do the…
- Big H Issued A Recall On Vfr1200F And Vfr1200X Re:drive-Shafts I did call my local Dealer and fed them the VIN and they confirmed the bike is eligible for the recall. Here she is BTW. Will be here in about 3 weeks. [image: 47222585_536303116781792_8819435177324314624_n.jpg] [image:…
- Big H Issued A Recall On Vfr1200F And Vfr1200X Re:drive-Shafts Well here we are in late '18 and I'm buying one of these bikes, VIN showing up as "open recall" and in the effected SN range. Is Honda still issuing these parts? I do have a good relationship with my Dealer and would…
