- Any Interest In A 'veefr In The Highlands' (Cape Breton) Tour Summer 2016? Wife was think of making an east coast trip this summer. Her brother and parents are looking at making the trip. Wonder what she would think if I loaded the bike on the trailer behind us... Made my first trip in 07 few…
- 360� Gopro Videos I saw one of these back in the spring but didn't know what it was until today. [image: spherical.jpg] It's got 6 GoPro cameras in a qube that all sync together to record all at once to the same storage unit. Now sure…
- Honda Paint Codes RC51Nick I ended up using Black metallic VHT high heat engine paint. I would say it is a 99% match to the stocker. Needed some for the same reason as you. I really can't tell the difference. Thanks I'll take a look and…
- Honda Paint Codes Anyone know the paint code for the 6th gen engine? More so the clutch cover. Mine is a little rashed up and I planning on sending it to Seb at some point for window install. But would like to try and clean it up a…
- Vfr1200 2015 Looks just like the 09 Canadian colors.. [image: 64584342_d.jpg] I think if the 1200 had a bigger fuel tank, something that pushed it a little closer to the same range as the 800 or even a little more, they would sell a…
- T-Mac 2014 Quotes None VFRD event hotel guest to the girl at the front desk... "Excuse me, I have a complaint" Front desk girl "Yes what is it?" Non-VFRD "There seems to be a beer keg on the luggage cart" Remind me next year - I have a…

- Cam Chain Tensioner, Without Throttle Body Removal Can someone mebay explain to me what is actually goes failure in a CCT. The mechanical consturctie is not so complex, I think. Of course one says wear, but then what? I do not understand a f***! And my VTEC ratlles like…
- Helmet Speakers LEGEND I agree 100% earplugs with helmet speakers is the way to go. Yup, an using ear plugs helps to reduces rider fatigue. If you have never used ear plugs try them. Even the cheap foam ones will turn a 250mile day in…
- Anyone Played With 3D Printer? Make Custom Bike Parts? We have one at work as well, and like everyone else has said. They are great for mocking up parts before sending them to the CNC, but that's about it.

- Anyone Else Put A Stereo On Their Vfr The answer to the question that nobody asked? If you're enjoying it, then keep on going. Most folks just use an Ipod and earbuds. Ya, because in the long run that's all that matters... I'm a BT helmet speakers user…
- Easy Mod To Use Your Smartphone As A Gps Hud Just watch the GoPro mounts, they like to break and fall apart under vibrations, sometimes and the plastic doesn't like long term exposure to UV from the sun.

- Vfr Can't Keep Up With V-Rod? I remember T-MAC a few years ago, where a younger kid, mid 20's riding a CBR or GSXR type bike, came up to us at the Gap store and said that he really liked the look of the VFR. And maybe when he was older and was ready…
- Honda Part Number For 07 Anniversary Blue Topcase Needed If they mix their own paint on site, then ya they should beable to just take the code and mix up what they need. But it's not going to be cheap, I looked at having mine painted last year, as its black. It was a few…
- Zumo & TomTom are Obsolete The reason I've always used the smartphone is the audio output. I ride long trips with my phone managing the music playlist or audiobook as well as my navigation at the same time. It will play music/book until I need…
- Vtec Shock Options Ive been looking around trying to figure out a new shock, as my OEM has 85,000+kms on it and I'm sure its close to needing a rebuild or replacement. Problem is I almost think I need two shocks.... :( One for everyday…
- Zumo & TomTom are Obsolete I've had my Zumo 450 for 7 years and its still going strong. I'm on my 4th smartphone over that same time frame. Mostly because the battery gets cooked from too many charge cycles. A data connection to keep the maps…
- Honda Part Number For 07 Anniversary Blue Topcase Needed In Canada they sold a matching blue in 07. I know because when I went to order mine, Dealer had to dig up an 03 or 04 part number to get me one in black, as the 07 part number said it was Blue, I needed black as my 07…
- The Official Oil Thread My god, this tread is still alive? I've got 86,000km on my 07... I've used everything from Mobile 1 to Castrol and now using Motul because I found a place and it's cheaper than everything else. We ride VFRs, I bet you…

- Recommended Inner Bag liner for Honda OEM top box/ Honda OEM liner reviews I'm not sure if the Honda liners are still avallible. I know they are disco here in Canada. I got one from Givi. It was around $35 where Honda wanted $119, same damn bag just says Givi not Honda on it. Here is the box…

- Front radiator Dutchy, on 24 June 2012 - 08:27 AM, said: [image: Posted Image] Ducati looks without the high maintaince cost LOL. Not to really stir things up, but for some reason I think in most cases the Honda engineer that designed…
- Givi top case with Honda side bags No you can't use OEM side bags with a Givi top case, I've already looked in to it. This sucks as Givi makes the OEM boxes for Honda and Honda has discontinued the OEM boxes for 6th gens last spring. .
- Front radiator Biggest problem I see with a front mounted rad, is your now pushing the rad heat back at the motor. A motor that due to design already runs hot. The side mounted rads funnel air in from the from and pushes the hot air…
- Front radiator Arri, on 22 June 2012 - 06:45 AM, said: I would like to know if someone kindly tell me what thread is about the issue that the alternator works in all conditions at 100% load. I'll see if I can find it, but I beleive…

- New Zumo 350LM out I've been reading the Zumo forum about this unit and it seems it doesn't bluetooth connect to your cell phone anymore like the 550 and 660 models did. So if you want your voice prompts and music you're goin to have to…

- New Zumo 350LM out Looks like a nice unit. Looks like a widescreen version of the 220, but with an updated operating system. Lifetime map updates is nice. Wonder if it tracks fuel mileage lime my nuvi 1450 does... Might be a nice replaced…
- Fuel Range I suspect you are getting better gas mileage because of a switch to summer gas. People in the know can confirm or not. I hope I'm wrong... Actually we don't have summer gas, our gas blends stay the same all year long,…

- "Water proof" jacket - worth it or not? Deciding on a new jacket. My question is: Is it worth getting a "waterproof" textile jacket that sacrifices some breathability for dubious built-in waterproofing, or should I just get a nice, breathable, half mesh half textile jacket and a…
- Zumo Programming Speaking of Zumo's, has anyone had trouble with its charging in the craddle? I can charge it at home but when I am on the bike, it won't charge. Any thoughts anyone? The mount isn't as waterproof as the unit is. I've…
- Zumo Programming You can create a route and waypoints on the Zumo the problem is jut the fact your working with a 3.7inch screen. MapSource is the program you can download off the Garmin website for free. I'm not sure how much you can…
