Last 50 of 83- What did you do to your VFR Today? I'm about two years late, but it's been a while since I've been here. I had my forks reworked by DMR, and love the results. I highly recommend them.
- It's Time To Sell My Viffer...bittersweet I believe you mean "primary chain rattle.". Congrats on a job in the industry, I do know from the Beer industry you better never be seen drinking a competitors product! Perhaps you could disguise the viffer...... I only…
- It's Time To Sell My Viffer...bittersweet Honestly, all riders are welcome. Heck, even non-riders are welcome! I don't get the prime parking when I ride to work, but I only park another 50 feet farther away, along with the Ducatis. Yeah, wera803, I'm all signed…
- It's Time To Sell My Viffer...bittersweet I recall hairy arms.... :-) Will suit you at HD.... Long and hairy arms. I don't need ape hangers, though! :goofy:
- It's Time To Sell My Viffer...bittersweet I haven't been very active on the forum for a while. (years?) It's partly due to having young kids, which require lots of time, and partly because I worked from home, and didn't have a commute. The part I'm happy about…
- Cheapest and most effective mod youve made Cheapest: New grips Best: Suspension
- 4Th Gen Rc30 Replicas That look great! The left-exit exhaust is rare, too. They seem to be missing the NACA ducts, though. :goofy:
- What Will 4Th Gen Owners Do? I sometimes have similar thoughts. I've ridden several more modern bikes since I got my 4th gen in 2006. Every time I get back on mine, I wonder why I had those cheating thoughts. The fact that it was paid-off the…

- Valve check on a 4th gen -- what do I need? Aren't spark plugs due every 8k mi? You'll be right in the area. When I checked my valves (all within spec @ 32k mi) I also removed the radiator and gave it a good flush. Beyond that, it's good time to do some cleaning.
- '97 headlights [image: View Post]mikester, on 04 November 2010 - 02:11 PM, said: Wondering if there's a way to have BOTH headlights on when low beam is selected. I have searched the forums and the electrical section - didn't see…

- Nuclear Dikes Sorry to see this, Leon! Glad you are OK. Lay off the mayo! :offtopic: Nice job getting her looking good again.

- Vfr Won't Make Lights Change I'm cheap enough to try the side stand trick! I actually tried it last night, and it worked at the one traffic light that was test-able.

- Safety Wire? [image: Posted Image] Unless that is a left-hand threaded bolt, that will never pass tech inspection. Actually, there are several examples on that web-site that would never get a signature from an A&P. I'm sure Timmy…
- Safety Wire? Funny that I just read this article to see if I would learn anything new. The blade-shaped handle of the oil fill plug can be easily drilled, and Honda has conveniently left a small ear around an adjacent engine-case…
- Convertibars Or Lsl Superbike Kit I can't help with the bars, but can comment a little on the seat. I have had a Corbin on a previous bike, and I had Sargent rework a stock seat for my VFR. I am happier with the Sargent version. It was cheaper, and I…
- For The Love Of All Things Holy Cant Anyone Keep Their Bikes Upright ! I think you're looking to hard, too. I am one of those picky, anal retentive people, but I'm getting less so with age. All bikes fall over. They are easy to fix. You will drop one yourself, too! History/Condition: I had…
- To Buy Back The Salvage Or Not? Oh yeah...the hard bag mounts are expensive, so make sure you get those off. You definitely want your customized seat, too! I need a steering stem cap, too! I'm too cheap to buy the little plastic thing. :rolleyes:
- To Buy Back The Salvage Or Not? Do you have replacement insurance? I know when Josh had his VFR taken away from him by a truck, if he got a replacement within 30 days, Progressive paid the sales tax. If you're in the mood for another VFR... There's a…
- 6th Gen Speedo Disconnection Please I think I know why you don't want to cover it. You would be peeling tape off to see it. :laugh: You may have other reasons, but the curiosity is getting at me, so I have to make up a reason to appease my mind. If you…
- 6th Gen Speedo Disconnection Please Why don't you want to cover it up? You can just put masking tape over that section of the gauges.
