I dun sumpin bad... induced a short somewhere in electrical system 5 Apr 2012 03:04 Update: so I tracked down the short.... in the back of the bike =P When I finally started to search around the bike for anything odd, I looked in the tail-light area and discovered that the license plate light wires had…
  2. I dun sumpin bad... induced a short somewhere in electrical system 18 Mar 2012 17:38 hey Tightwad, thanks for this info... I'll get some diodes and wire it up... thankfully I did pretty well in my circuits lab in school so this makes perfect sense... too bad I didn't do so well as to see what kind of…

  4. I dun sumpin bad... induced a short somewhere in electrical system 21 Feb 2012 20:57 I think I created a short in my electrical system :sad: I got Darth Blings angled mirror bracket kit with the integrated turn signal mirrors a while back. I really like them but it took me forever to finally put them…
  5. Gas Mileage In The Cold 23 Oct 2008 16:58 [image: View Post]Bad Boy, on Oct 23 2008, 11:45 AM, said: It sounds like you have something wrong that is keeping the bike in warm up mode. The VFR runs well when everything is working right. This is a complicated…

  7. Gas Mileage In The Cold 23 Oct 2008 14:48 I've posted several times on this issue with no positive outcome... My '02 gets REALLY BAD gas mileage as soon as it starts to get moderately cool outside... I'm talking down to about 25 mpg with outside temps of 40-60…
  8. Safety Recall 23 Aug 2008 19:20 BTW, I had to return my bike two weeks ago after the recall work... I had the bike back for all of 3 days, and then as I was riding home from work, my speedo started jumping wildly from my actual speed (about 70) all…
  9. Safety Recall 7 Aug 2008 17:17 got my bike back from Pasadena Honda (Houston) yesterday. the recall work took 2 weeks, but the thermostat R&R I requested took FOUR MORE WEEKS!! :biggrin:
  10. Safety Recall 25 Jun 2008 16:29 Just dropped off mine yesterday. They said it would take at most a week before they could get to it, then the wait for parts if necessary =P
  11. Safety Recall 11 Jun 2008 20:40 Baileyrock Most Dealers in the Country have no problem ordering the parts, why would it be a problem for these clowns? Tell them that, just because they are inept why should you suffer? The mandatory parts for the…
  12. Safety Recall 11 Jun 2008 16:37 I tried to call the Honda Customer Support line to get a straight answer: either "yes, your dealer can order the parts for you ahead of time" or "no, the dealer requires a thorough inspection, etc, etc," but I got a…
  13. Safety Recall 10 Jun 2008 21:08 Has anyone in Houston dealt with any of the local dealerships for this recall? My bike cut out on me while coming out of a turn yesterday for no apparent reason (only second time I can recall this ever happening), so I…
