  1. A ride from nearly 12 years ago... but enjoy. 15 VFR's (two groups) and one Tuono ridden by my friend Rene. Montezuma Grade might be the most perfect road. ihilker 2 15 Jan 2022 15 Jan 2022 ihilker · 15 Jan 2022 – 15 Jan 2022

  2. Vtec Shock Options 19 Jul 2020 00:35 I just put a Penske on my 03 last November with RaceTech 1.1 kg springs up front. I have pictures step by step somewhere... I should post them up.
  3. Nude Or Clear Tank Protector Bra? 23 Jul 2014 15:09 I initially had the sam bra as you... they are horrible. I would remove that ASAP. IMHO they do more damage than good as dirt and debris gets under there and will scratch the tank just as bad if not worse than naked. I…
  4. New Vfr800 Vtec Will Be Introduced At Eicma. 4 Nov 2013 23:49 This is Honda's "Screaming Eagle" edition VFR.... They took a page out of HD's cutting edge research and development department. Well look at the bright side... many of the parts will be interchangable with your 5th or…
  5. Radar Detector Indicator Lights -- Fun With Leds 20 Sep 2013 21:31 A shift light setup like this would also be cool... I'm too busy to start any new projects though.
  6. Vfr Can't Keep Up With V-Rod? 15 Apr 2013 19:57 Temecula is the V-rod capitol of the world... I light them up all the time. The last time I dragged one I was two up with my girlfriend on the back on Winchester Rd... got him by several bike lengths the first run and…
  7. Palomar Ride Saturday 8/15 14 Aug 2009 16:24 Also, as I've done in the past, I'll be closing down this topic at 7:00pm tomorrow night. That way everyone can go to sleep and not be concerned about checking in again before the ride. I know I had a hard time sleeping…
  8. Palomar Ride Saturday 8/15 27 Jul 2009 15:52 I'm in...
  9. Vfr 750 As An Aircraft Engine? 14 May 2009 15:16 Sounds to me like vibration is a concern of yours... I know it is for me. The reason the guy put the HD motor in his aircraft is simple... it is air cooled. But it is also a 45 degree twin that is horribly unbalanced,…
  10. Michelin Power One 12 Mar 2009 23:32 I just saw an ad for the new Michelin Power One. The US site doesn't look like it has info on it but here is a link. It is supposed to replace the Power Race tires... which is by far my favorite tire!…
  11. Interested In Getting 6th Generation W/abs 16 Feb 2009 22:12 CCTL = Cam Chain Tensioner Lifter 6th gen puts out 109 hp at the crank and 99 hp at the rear wheel. It won't leak like an SV does either... the SV seeps a little oil at the main crankshaft bearing. Forgot to mention…
  12. Interested In Getting 6th Generation W/abs 14 Feb 2009 00:02 I have a bud with an sv1000, We switch and ride eachothers bikes all the time. They are basically the same speed. When we drag whoever gets the best launch wins. The VFR is smoother than the SV but the SV's vibration…
  13. Handling Characteristics Of The Vfr 28 Jan 2009 00:53 Congrats on your RWB! I can say this much... I have a good riding buddy with a 06 Raven R6, Akro slip on only... all stock otherwise and he is one of the fastest riders I have ever ridden with. I am 2 up on the rear…
  14. Safety Wire? 8 Oct 2008 17:33 I am getting ready to do a track day at the streets of willow on the 20th and they are now requiring to saftey wire the drain plug and filter. Anyone done this on their VFR and what did you secure the saftey wire to. I…
  15. Idyllwild 9/28 8:00am Meetup 22 Sep 2008 22:08 Sweet... I am really looking forward to this ride! I love the 243! I just broke up with my girlfriend, and riding always seems to help. See you guys Sunday. Thanks Shayne for pulling this ride together. -Isaac
  16. Gone Away 19 Feb 2008 22:07 Resale on the VFR's seem to be awfully bad here in SoCal... I highly doubt I will buy another Honda in the future. Other than the VFR, they currently do not make a bike I am interested in purchasing... and considering…
  17. New Yoshimura Vtec Exhaust! 6 Feb 2008 15:29 Looks good Dave, good work :thumbsup: . I wanted to hear it but the video doesn't seem to be working. I agree with you, the pcIII will help the lean condition. After you get a PCIII I would be intrerested in knowing how…
  18. Linked Brakes Saved Me 15 Jan 2008 15:06 I to have felt that the linked brakes have saved me a few times... although the circumstances were different.
  19. My Cct's Are Going 15 Nov 2007 19:21 Ok a little update... front CCTL is bad. Riv, you were right about the hose clamps near the water pump, so I tightened them up. So I should have her road worthy soon. Thank GOD. -Isaac
  20. ATTENTION MICHIGAN AREA RIDERS! 11 Mar 2006 21:53 Hard to believe anyone from CA is going to complain about MI weather! :blink: We'll send you some pics of the 10" of snow we get next month...then we'll see if he complains! :lol: <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Being from Ft. Wayne,…
  21. ATTENTION MICHIGAN AREA RIDERS! 11 Mar 2006 17:53 How ironic is this! I am the one stuck indoors today while you bastages get to ride. Freakin rain! I know I shouldn't complain but it just plain sucks. I missed you while you were in town theoxmole, nice pipes btw. Well…
  22. Single sided swingarms 28 Feb 2006 21:18 The VFR's suspension definately has room for improvement, especially for bigger heavier riders. I know VFR FLYER is currently having a Pensky rear shock and Racetech springs put on his 5th Gen. Maybe he could give us a…
