  1. New bike! 24 Oct 2019 09:07 2 hours ago, Philois1984 Regardless of colour we all bleed red, or in the case of the VFR’s regardless of colour they all have a V4 growl😁 Well thát's a nice statement !
  2. New bike! 23 Oct 2019 17:29 6 hours ago, HareBrain A few points of interest: 1. It's gorgeous. I thought white was the best colour If it isn't any longer to you ... then always, always keep in mind the white ones are the fastest 😎
  3. Bike stolen, steering lock broken 16 Oct 2019 08:14 2 hours ago, Dutchy Kill it, grill it........ Bon appétit! :goofy: Yes ! We found him ! The Dutch speaking French ! :goofy:
  4. An unintentional off-road ride with a VFR 13 Oct 2019 17:54 A VFR laying down is not the best thing to look at. The fact that it comes with a costly bill makes it even worse.
  5. An unintentional off-road ride with a VFR 11 Oct 2019 06:46 4 hours ago, Terry ST1100s and 1300s are actually not bad on gravel provided you never let them get away from vertical.... ... which is the only thing to watch out for. But just do it the right way right away, as you…
  6. An unintentional off-road ride with a VFR 9 Oct 2019 17:35 12 minutes ago, nik68 Memorable, to me too! But i'm not doing it again for any reason... Indeed. Me neither. For me, the biggest stress was not knowing what would come next , because if after 15 kilometers, the road…
  7. An unintentional off-road ride with a VFR 9 Oct 2019 15:05 20 minutes ago, RC36B you and the Dutch must have a seriously malfunctioning tongue or some other common birth defect LOL ! I'm Flemish indeed. Must be a birth defect, I guess, as I'm in no way aware that something's…
  8. An unintentional off-road ride with a VFR 9 Oct 2019 13:10 See it's memorable ☺️ Low on fuel was none of my problems then, luckily : it took enough effort keeping the bike upright, I could've missed fuel troubles ! But when talking about "low on fuel" : I remember my Alps trip…
  9. An unintentional off-road ride with a VFR 9 Oct 2019 11:59 Last september, my motorbike friend and I went riding in the Pyrenees. When preparing the route, I remember having struggled with BaseCamp which was unwilling to use a pass I wanted to do. Then I must have forced…
  10. Passenger seat cowling standard? 26 Sep 2019 05:38 1 hour ago, Grum Also apart from the cowl, and pillion handles, you should also have the matching colour Left and Right Grab Rail Covers As I bought my VFR800F second hand, I never received these covers, unfortunately,…
  11. SPORT tourer 3 Sep 2019 16:52 3 hours ago, skant153 At least they retained the passenger handles Which is even more stupid, as the passenger seat is gone...
  12. How to make a power-only Garmin Zümo 595 or 590 support 1 Sep 2019 19:03 As I notice an older video of mine gets quite some traffic, I have reasons to believe that some people here could benefit from it too (originally made in Dutch, but English undertitles are available). Applicable to the…
  13. SPORT tourer 1 Sep 2019 09:10 6 hours ago, Marvelicious ... hard bags... they just spoil the look for me. It's like going to the class reunion and discovering that hot girl never hit the gym after having a few kids. I'm married to such a hot girl.…
  14. Manual Mistakes? 31 Aug 2019 12:28 If we really have to go off-topic, I prefer the Suzuki's being talked about. Indeed, Rins made my Sunday, last weekend...
  15. Manual Mistakes? 30 Aug 2019 20:45 11 hours ago, Marvelicious So, as long as we're taking the piss (as you limeys would say) with regard to English... I'm pretty sure we earned a pass on abusing the language however we please since you aren't all…
  16. Manual Mistakes? 29 Aug 2019 19:16 14 minutes ago, CoyoteChris Ha! The screws/bolts/push pins/pushlocks are all out and in the board! Time to tear off some plastic. Now that I think of it, I made a video not so long ago, which is going some of the steps…
  17. Manual Mistakes? 29 Aug 2019 06:37 If you're already having trouble, being an American, with decoding British English, what then should people say who aren't speaking English as their mother tongue ? 😓 But then again, reading the instructions, and…
  18. Bike stolen, steering lock broken 27 Aug 2019 14:19 8 minutes ago, Bent If your VFR gets stolen and you have decent insurance, they will pay you more than book value for it. I kind of hope mine gets stolen........ Don't know exactly what you call a decent insurance, but…
  19. 8 gen spare keys 23 Aug 2019 20:49 57 minutes ago, CoyoteChris Two keys is not enough. Never needed more than 1 single key myself 😎 What would you use a (e.g.) third, fourth key for ?
  20. Bike stolen, steering lock broken 23 Aug 2019 06:11 Well, if the insurance company really needs this second key, AT LEAST make sure you OPEN both panniers BEFORE sending both keys. Because then, you can always re-adapt both lock(s) to another key. This may be attractive…
  21. Picture Thread 19 Aug 2019 19:04 57 minutes ago, MaxSwell This looks like a perfect place to try for A Personal Landspeed Record. ... Not afraid of drones (measuring your speed from far away, well beyond sight) ? I heard this can happen in the States…
  22. Making the VFR Better for 2up Touring 14 Aug 2019 14:35 4 hours ago, Skids .... The 45ltr box that came with my 1200, brand new, uses the ignition key. The 2nd-hand one I fitted to my VFR800X has a separate key as I chose not to go down that route as I'm not sure how…
  23. Anybody finding the bronze wheels a little tame? 13 Aug 2019 15:51 If it'd have to be anything else than bronze, I'd take pearl white (for this pearl white bike) !
  24. Compatability with VFR800X acccessories - rear carrier 11 Aug 2019 18:39 If it can help anybody : for my (pearl-white) model 2014 VFR800F (color code NH-B53P), I bought a set numbered 08L70-MJMD10 . This set includes the 2 side panniers (the right one of them carrying a heat protection…
  25. What did you do to your VFR Today? 29 May 2019 12:03 Saw this on your channel, indeed. Money is round, let it roll ☺️
  26. The dreaded valve adjustment 27 May 2019 15:28 I fully understand GreginDenver's concerns, especially with his background. I'm not convinced the VFR's valves should NOT be adjusted in due time, let alone that they'd NEVER have to be adjusted. After all, I trust the…
  27. The dreaded valve adjustment 25 May 2019 11:46 I guess it's mostly the VTEC valves that give the VFR valve adjustment job a reputation making most people reluctant of. On the other hand, I don't think that 24000 km schedule for the VTEC valves adjustment is that…
  28. The dreaded valve adjustment 24 May 2019 16:20 2 hours ago, Bent BMW makes some good bikes, period, as does Honda...VFR's at least. Have nice weekend. They might. Guess I must have had bad luck then. Regardless, I myself don't trust BMW's any longer, and they will…
  29. The dreaded valve adjustment 24 May 2019 07:40 I wouldn't trade in a well running and fully functional bike just to avoid a maintenance cost ! It's not a BMW ! It's a Honda ! Made to last. Reliable. I would have the Service Manual, buy myself the needed equipment…
  30. What did you do to your VFR Today? 21 May 2019 06:39 1 hour ago, Samuelx Hail Caesar! Is 'semper ubi sub ubi ' part of ATGATT? 😉 Initially not understanding this (or should I say "understanding this only as Latin words without any coherent meaning"), I did some Googling…
  31. What did you do to your VFR Today? 20 May 2019 20:52 54 minutes ago, Greytec And it definitely looks much better than the original exhaust. De gustibus et de coloribus ...
  32. Voltage to ECM? 1 May 2019 08:11 I would maybe NOT overlook checking the proper mounting POSITION of the BAS first. Because if it's not mounted in its proper position (i.e. in its -or at least pretty close to its- proper angle), you may get strange and…
  33. if you went from a owning a 6th Gen to an 8th gen which do you prefer? 15 Apr 2019 17:58 I wonder which rider can feel a difference of a couple of hp's. If the conviction "that you can certainly feel it" is not already present between both ears, I guess that no-one would ever feel it, not even the brightest…
  34. VFR Alternatives / Where to from here? 8 Apr 2019 10:56 5 hours ago, ScottieDucati Can’t believe nobody’s mentioned MV’s Turismo Veloce.. You're trapped in the current market's logic, where they sell anything powerfull as being a sports-tourer. Well, they aren't. Not the BMW…
  35. CoC Document 3 Apr 2019 20:01 fink, 1/21/2019 at 9:49 PM The certificate of conformity is only available from Honda That's my conviction too. A dealer can't make such a document. Only the constructor can confirm that that specific bike is…
