  1. dang i love this 5th gen 13 May 2022 03:12 So I took a long hiatus from riding. Probably a familar story, I used to ride all the time but got married had kids decided I shouldn't be hooliganing around on my bike and sold it. So fast forward 15 years... I've…
  2. Charging system question 6 Sep 2021 22:05 8 hours ago, raYzerman Re-reading your original post, would have been handy to know what the battery voltage was before you first fired it up..... Clock reset, etc..... normally would indicate battery dead.... OR, flaky…
  3. Charging system question 6 Sep 2021 04:08 Battery is 9-10 months old. The connectors look fine no burnt anything or corrosion. I keep the bike in the garage, but it is a pretty cold garage in the winter. If the bike is going sit for any length (which for me is…
  4. Charging system question 5 Sep 2021 23:03 I'm trying to troubleshoot a possible issue with my charging system. So I got on my VFR other day and started it up, it fires right up. But I notice something odd, the clock and my trip meter had reset. I set the clock…
  5. VFR decal 23 Jun 2021 05:08 Gebruiker, 6/21/2021 at 1:31 PM MaxSwell recommended this source of decals to me a while back. They're in the EU, but they ship to the States, and seem to offer what you need:…
  6. VFR decal 21 Jun 2021 15:14 7 hours ago, RothmansVFR Just wondering which decal you are wanting. Whilst I am in Australia, I might be able to help out and hence the wider community here as I own a vinyl cutter and can create my own decals. As an…
  7. VFR decal 20 Jun 2021 02:51 When I picked up my 5G back in Nov 2020, I got a great deal (imo) on a mechanically perfect vfr, only had 13K miles on it and purchased for 2K. I've had 2K trouble free miles since then. The only real flaw was that the…
  8. Just curious, so when does you riding season typically end 4 Mar 2021 17:23 22 hours ago, Magneto Love rex, I have it for 20 years now. Rex is an old school UJM bike with its pros and cons. Fueling is great, as long as carbs are clean and it has big bore power. I would use it normally to go…
  9. Just curious, so when does you riding season typically end 3 Mar 2021 16:22 so next week we are supposed to crack the lower 60's. Today is gonna be 55. So really I had about a 45ish day pause in riding.

  11. Just curious, so when does you riding season typically end 12 Jan 2021 05:00 ok, i'm such a liar. Either that or my VFR is a foul temptress, you decide... so I'm not doing any real trips per se. But any excuse i have to run an errand or do a short outing, if it's not brutal cold out the VFR is…
  12. Just curious, so when does you riding season typically end 29 Dec 2020 16:45 So just gear wise thing. I'm wearing not very expensive gear. but a pair of jeans with these over them: https://www.amazon.com/Motorcycle-Dualsport-Waterproof-All-Weather-Waist36-38/dp/B07LGXZLG5 I have an insulated…
  13. Just curious, so when does you riding season typically end 28 Dec 2020 23:21 So today went for a ride in the "mountains" around here, and ended up at Pinchot State Park. Met my wife there and we took the pups for a walk. Was only in the mid 40's really but my VFR didn't seem to mind...
  14. Just curious, so when does you riding season typically end 27 Dec 2020 20:13 Ok despite the earlier rumor, er post, that I was probably done for the winter. I said screw it's 39 out can't be that cold and went and did some minor errands on the vfr. I think she appreciated it greatly. Of course…
  15. Just curious, so when does you riding season typically end 26 Dec 2020 23:29 ok i admit i have an eye on the weather report every week. I see tomorrow might be 44, no wind, sunny. There's a chance i bust the bike out of the cocoon then, but monday is supposed to have a north of 50 day, and if…
  16. Multiple Bike Disorder (MBD) 24 Dec 2020 05:27 9 hours ago, Terry Time to rename this thread Multiple Bernese Disorder ??? Don't get me started on becoming heart broken when you dog dies too soon (or at any time!). Lost my 8 year old border collie Pepper in January…
  17. Multiple Bike Disorder (MBD) 23 Dec 2020 07:25 10 hours ago, Careca That Bernese was the best dog in the world. I know most Bernese die between 6-7 years . She was 9 years and 1 month when we parted company. I would like to think it was down to raw feeding diet. Id…

  19. Just curious, so when does you riding season typically end 14 Dec 2020 16:17 For myself I'm fine riding down to high 30's. But once the first real snow fall hits and they start treating the roads I'm done until spring (usually). They like to throw down salt and sometimes cinders so even after…
