  1. Picking new cylinder wall material need help 21 Mar 2021 18:55 I also weighed the vfr rod and they are pretty beefy at 290 grams.
  2. Picking new cylinder wall material need help 21 Mar 2021 18:39 @DannoXYZ Thank you that makes a lot of sense. I’m going to be asking a lot of questions to all types of people going forward with this as this is my first custom engine build. On another note I notice the valve…
  3. Picking new cylinder wall material need help 21 Mar 2021 18:24 So distance from the hole to the top of the pistons measure 14.6mm for the vfr and 15.8 for the cbr. Respectively the holes are 17 vs 18mm. That means piston height is 23.1 for the vfr and 24.8 for the cbr. So my…
  4. Picking new cylinder wall material need help 21 Mar 2021 18:00 @Mohawk Thank you for the reply as I forgot to measure the piston height from the center of the wrist pin hole! I remember looking at them side to side and I think even though the new cbr piston has a compression ratio…
  5. Picking new cylinder wall material need help 21 Mar 2021 02:04 I also weighed the pins and the cbr pin is only a couple grams heavier. It’s also beefier looking. The interceptor pin is 17mm in diameter and longer while the cbr is 18mm. I’m going to have to use a different rod. I’m…
  6. Picking new cylinder wall material need help 21 Mar 2021 01:02 So guys the cbr1000rr-r piston came in and I got some photos and weighed it. I’m going to get a better scale as I don’t want to go around balancing the darn crank and I’m also going to see if I can have the oiling holes…
  7. Picking new cylinder wall material need help 11 Mar 2021 15:32 I actually got it for 200 bucks used. Someone crashed one and it was on eBay. I snatched it up once I saw that the price for a new one is 1800 usd on partzilla. I think I’m going to convert it to a closed deck so I can…
  8. Picking new cylinder wall material need help 11 Mar 2021 03:50 Alrighty guys so I bought a spare crank case I’ll let you guys know which route I went with in the future as things progress. Also I’m going to see if I can use the 81mm pistons used in the new cbr1000rr-r sp. I already…
  9. Picking new cylinder wall material need help 19 Feb 2021 17:50 Oh and I apologize. To answer your other question is that everyone is different. Everyone has a different meaning for the word perfect and everyone has different preferences. Everyone is also physically different so…
  10. Picking new cylinder wall material need help 19 Feb 2021 17:44 No, it’s fine I take constructive criticism just fine. I actually chuckled when I saw your comment. And I was actually going to use an eBay motor so you can rest assured knowing I’m not taking my wondrous 8th gen apart.…
  11. Picking new cylinder wall material need help 19 Feb 2021 17:17 Hi everyone, I thought I would ask this question on this forum since someone might have firsthand knowledge on the subject. Does anyone know what the optimal material for cylinder walls on this bike would be? I’m…
  12. Custom Fairing kit for 8th Gen VFR’s 6 May 2020 20:56 So I’m not sure about you guys but the looks of the 8th and 6th gen vfr’s have always bugged me for some reason. Like I know they’re not supposed to be super sport bikes but I feel like Honda could have thrown in some…
  13. New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA 6 Aug 2019 16:41 Count me in for one of the 8th headers. Actually happy the first order didn't happen yet to be honest. And I wanted to ask if I can also get a custom stainless midpipe too?
