All 13- More Cooling Questions NOT a fan of humidity, which is why I want to be back in Colorado. Thank you for the offer though. I might visit sometime.
- More Cooling Questions [image: View Post]coderighter, on Oct 5 2009, 03:42 PM, said: Then again, I live in an area that the temps in the 90's are pretty rare. I think I read somewhere Seattle only averages 5, 90+ days per year. Except for…

- More Cooling Questions In augmenting a cooling system, I've always considered a couple of small computer fans on the oil cooler as the radiator(s) perform a designed function with the water, the oil is also a liquid that absorbs heat and ,…
- More Hoooey?! LOTS of "if's" with this and until an official release or roll-out, I'm just not buyin.....yet. Of course, I would think that putting the 2 cylinders up fron would make it a bit roomier for things like the split…
- Shoot Me Now Please I'm not finding anything more recent than last summers MCN and similar articles. Nothing will likely hit the press here in the States until August-ish anyway. We'll probably have to wait until then to see just how bad…
- Is This True? Was goofing around and found this (in French, basically the same article): http://www.motorevue.com/site/vfr-1000-le-...rces-25049.html
- If They Have 200hp 800cc V4 They wouldn't have to engineer and produce a whole new bike, just a transmission and frame. The ST engine IS a "V-4", the rest is available in parts from other models (inverted forks from a 900RR or 929 for example).…
- Is This True? Sorry, not until "official" word is released I'm not putting much faith in it. Even after that, I wouldn't buy an "alpha" model. I would wait a couple years at least until the bugs (and you know there will be) get…
- Ok, I'm Stoopid... Chain Adjustment? There is a spanner wrench with a flat extension tube in your tool kit. Loosen the pinch bolt at the aft end of the swingarm. Take the spanner wrench and set it into the toothed wheel on the swingarm side of the wheel…
- Aaargh! Does Anyone Know If We're Getting A New Model Yet? Tired of waiting for the liter class V4. I went and added a Blackbird to the roost of Black bikes :) Too bad American Honda hasn't imported them since '03. New ones are still available in Europe and the land Down Under…
- Tire Time I've had complete confidence in Metzler. Currently on an MEZ-4 front and an MEZ-6 rear. Got about 2k on the rear and no commuter flat spot. About 3.5k up front with a slight (about 1") flat spot trying to form.…
- Rhino Linings Cleaning and keeping it shiny on the bike shouldn't be too difficult. After a wash (scrub if needed - no worries about scratching it), just use a little WD-40 on a rag and it'll be shiny, not to mention probably easier…
