All 36- Sabsteef flash loaded today. Any updates since your inaugural flashed ride?
- Replacement Battery ducnut, 8/3/2020 at 10:17 AM Two years ago, I purchased a desulfanator/battery charger unit. I bought it to tend to my boat batteries to help them last longer. I've used it to tend my 8th gen VFR battery as well, but…
- Tail Seat Cowl - rattling I just did the velcro thing to the aft round rubber stops, and added a layer of cushion to where the fore rubber stops make contact and it works great... no more cowl rattling.
- What did you do to your VFR Today? Philois1984, 6/22/2020 at 5:53 PM Just got word from Powerbronze that my screen and hugger arrived in Melbourne and are now in the post on there way to me ( no Aust Post jokes I work for them 😄) Also just ordered a…
- Picture Thread 22 hours ago, MaxSwell I was headed to the PNW meet-up in Nelson, BC. The Noxon Reservoir is in far western Montana. The camp ground is on the west side, somewhere between Thompson Falls and Noxon, MT. My memory is…
- Picture Thread 11 hours ago, Cogswell We used to have that every year. IIRC the last year it was produced was 2014. The member that published them dropped off the site about 4 years ago. Do you recall how much was being charged for…
- Picture Thread 130 mile round trip to see my 78 year old Dad on Fsthers Day. Stops in Elkhart Lake zipping past Road America, and at Sheboygan’s Lake Michigan marina. Also had some new custom key tags made thanks to my neighbor. $12…
- Joe Rocket Jacket A little update on the Joe Rocket VFR mesh jacket... I’ve been quite comfortable in temps as high as 89F. Airflow is really good and if you want to ride on a cool day, with or without the threat of rain, just insert the…
- Picture Thread 59 minutes ago, lazyeye Out on the road. Sunset in the mountains. [image: IMG_20200620_200638.jpg] Great shot of the sun tucking itself to bed. I wish I could be more disciplined to stop for opportunistic photos.…
- Tail Seat Cowl - rattling Viffer, 6/19/2020 at 2:44 PM Hi, New to the forum. When I pulled the tail off my recently purchased VFR I noticed some velcro on the two rear bumpers. I figured the PO must have had an issue with it vibrating. Any…
- Tail Seat Cowl - rattling Does this look like it's missing any pieces underneath? I see the rubber stops, etc, and though my hand is covering the right side somewhat, it is the same as the left. The rear most part of the seat cowl doesn't sit…
- Picture Thread MaxSwell, 6/15/2020 at 8:41 PM This campground looks amazing! Great photo! I'd sure like to find this place someday. If I read your post correct, it's in MN? I'm only one State away (Cheeseconsin). [image:…

- Picture Thread ThrottleStop - Elkhart Lake, WI - (the custom seat on the BMW is made by Bagster... might have to look into that brand.) [image: IMG_2774.thumb.jpg.10a31ca16b807c7d92bc88b2b3c16533.jpg]
- Joe Rocket Jacket Great article! Enjoyed reading all of it, so thanks for the post JZH. So far, I'm quite happy with the JR VFR mesh jacket. It's remarkably comfortable in warmer temps. Haven't worn it in the rain yet, but hard to avoid…
- ThrottleStop - Elkhart Lake, WI - Highly Recommend !!! So... this past Saturday morning my wife hears a variety of motorcycles cruising up our street and parking at my neighbor's house. 6 riders were planning a day trip to Elkhart Lake (Road America track town), Kettle…
- Another Epic Ride Looks like you had an amazing trip! Curious how cold it was when near all that snow... and if you had to camp near it. What would you say were your riding temperature extremes? I have the same bike and just trying to…
- What did you do to your VFR Today? fink, 5/28/2020 at 4:14 PM You can get a lid in the side case. [image: post-31868-0-36087900-1441090786.jpg] THat's almost as far as the lid will close with my Shoei RF1200 in it. What make and model helmet are you…
- Joe Rocket Jacket 17 hours ago, interceptor69 I had a jacket pocket come open several years ago on a ride and a fairly nice camera fell out.... now I'm paranoid. Like the jacket! Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk Before my JR jacket…
- Joe Rocket Jacket 62 deg F ride in this morning... chose not to use the liners for this 30 minute ride. A little breazy-brisk, but I wasn't uncomfortably cool at all. The jacket fit great! The front pocket zippers are of good quality,…
- Joe Rocket Jacket 3 hours ago, thepretender So you gloved up to show how the jacket looked? Something fishy going on here. 😉 It dose look real good atop that sexy white bike. i really have no idea why i put the gloves on. lol
- What did you do to your VFR Today? 10 hours ago, Grum Looks ok. Assume you have it looped through the helmet D rings. Just be careful the steel wire doesn't scratch your paintwork just where it exits the holder. Thx for the response Grum. I'm still…
- Joe Rocket Jacket 10 hours ago, VFR78 Great knee sliders! Yeah... but it's all bionic skin I tell ya! lol I could have at least put jeans on for the photo but dang it was really hot n muggy out.
- Joe Rocket Jacket Don’t bash me for lack of proper riding attire. Just wanted to see what the new jacket looked like with the bike. And it was 90 degrees F outside. [image: 68474114-F031-452A-9139-FA904F59B60A.jpeg] [image:…
- What did you do to your VFR Today? Received the missing “helmet strap” from Partzilla today. I think I have it connected correctly. The User Manual is a little vague.
- Honda Grip Heaters economist, 1/19/2020 at 10:32 AM Yes, it is the same part the deluxe models use. The hardest part of the install was figuring out how to loosen the throttle cable to replace the right hand grip. I don't suppose you…
- Aftermarket/Custom seats VifferJ, 5/3/2020 at 10:22 PM Sargent built mine, you have to send them your seat pans, I had them do a heated seat for the rider section with better foams front n rear. The heat works great and the black section on the…

- Joe Rocket Jacket 4 minutes ago, thepretender Too bad it dose not come in red to match my VFR 😞 I have 2 mesh jackets so don't need but if it was red a impulse buy may have occurred. They offer a CBR version in a red and gray color…
- I wondered where the cool VFR-wear was 23 hours ago, paulmeisterpk They seem to have pretty bad reviews when I look them up. Sounds like a lot of customers never receive their order. That's too bad because if they had a positive following/good rep I'm…
- Joe Rocket Jacket Before I ordered it, I tried on a very similar Joe Rocket jacket they had in stock, just to size me up in it since each manufacturer has quite the varied sizing charts. It was a medium, and perfectly snug for a…
- Joe Rocket Jacket Just curious if any VFR riders out there currently use Joe Rocket riding jackets, especially the textile/mesh types from recent years. I just ordered the "Joe Rocket Honda VFR Jacket". The only thing on the jacket that…
- I wondered where the cool VFR-wear was Some nice looking apparel! I like the long sleeve crew, and the hoodie, Unable to ascertain where the products are actually printed and shipped from. Anyone know?
- Windscreen Lip service Does anyone have a photo of the Powerbronze Airflow windscreen on a white 8th gen VFR800?
- What did you do to your VFR Today? Found the rear grab rails that were actually included with my used 2014 purchase; also ordered specialized USA Veteran plates... could be 8 weeks before processing is complete though. I attached an example of what the…
- How do you have your pillion configured? Good morning! My first post on this forum and glad to be here! I'm not new to VFR's, but haven't owned one for nearly 15 years! My wife would say it's my "mid-life crisis" vehicle, and it IS cheaper than a Porsche,…
