  1. Really Dum question 29 Mar 2017 20:24 When I click on a thread it directs me to the very end, WTF? Its been a long while since I last visited VFRD but that sure makes getting caught up here frustrating. Im going to guess this is the set up for the type of…
  2. Anybody else ride the shitz out of their 5th Gen? 15 Sep 2011 20:39 Almost Exclusively, well unless the GF is onboard, then I back off about 10%

  5. Neglected VFR 3 Feb 2011 17:29 Do you know the Dupont power code or name for those gold wheels? They look very nice, I would also like to see a pic of them w/ the fairings on.
  6. Why Race? 21 Jan 2011 20:33 This is why My link
  7. Why Race? 17 Jan 2011 21:24 Track days are fun, racing is a f**king blast. No comparison in my book. You don't have to race a 600/750/1000 in the A/B/C classes. There are lots of other classes that are cheaper & just as much fun. Its still gonna…
  8. Compufire R/R 29 Dec 2010 18:28 If you fix the shitty connector the RR will be fine.
  9. Gearwrenches on sale at Sears!! 14 Dec 2010 21:16 I have to agree w/ Seb here, these wrenches are some of the most useful tools in the box. To prolong their life don't use the gear wrench end to break bolts loose or to put the final torque on them. Flip em over and use…
  10. Quoting entire posts in your replies 3 Nov 2010 18:11 You mods should just go ahead and remove the reply w/ quote button from Skuuters posts :biggrin: Just Kiddin ya Skuut, love yer posts man
  11. My VFR in the trees.... 29 Oct 2010 20:47 Damn Bent, so sorry that happened. Glad you didnt get too bent up. Good luck in your future endeavors. More and more I believe riding on the track is far safer than the street.

  16. Tally w/ Xact on october 16th? 14 Oct 2010 15:13 I understand that Wera is putting chest protectors in the rulebook as a suggestion in 2011, and a requirement in 2012. Something for you track guys to consider, it could save your life.
  17. Tally w/ Xact on october 16th? 13 Oct 2010 21:12 Oh yea that has to be better than nothing, I'm gonna give that a go this weekend. I think the Knox may be the one to get barring the jacket type, but proof is in the fit. I have the Bohn Pro racer back protector which…
  18. Tally w/ Xact on october 16th? 13 Oct 2010 19:35 Cool thanks Dale, look forward to seeing you again. Kev I never thought about that but I have several laying around as well and may try that. Man its so freakin nice out right now, supposed to be even better this…
  19. Tally w/ Xact on october 16th? 13 Oct 2010 16:23 My plan is to get there around 9pm Friday night, drop off the EZup, bike & stuff. There's a chance that we don't make it in by the 10pm cutoff so we will see you guys in the am. We are staying at the Comfort Inn in…
  20. Tally w/ Xact on october 16th? 8 Oct 2010 21:34 Just sent my $$ for Saturday. Anyone ride w/ this group before? I wonder if they will do a half day am on Sunday. Bringing the new to me race SV.

  22. My Suspension Makeover is Now Complete 29 Sep 2010 17:35 The legs work as one unit. You can also mix spring rates to achieve in between rates.
  23. Questions about VFR's 28 Sep 2010 15:50 [image: View Post]unkjj, on 28 September 2010 - 08:50 AM, said: I personally think the VFR corners extremely well. My wife rides a SV650 which would be close to what you have (I would think). The VFR is way better when…
  24. Tightening the spark plugs 27 Sep 2010 21:44 There are some cautions you need to heed when using anti seize on spark plugs. The Anti seize lubes the threads and may cause over torquing, thus stretching them and causing them to strip later. Use 25% less torque when…
  25. Will this work to cool my RR, or am I wasting my time 21 Sep 2010 16:51 The fan is all you really need, the problem is there is little to no air flow in that area. The heat pipe is a bit of overkill, but if you can make it fit go for it.
  26. Racing the RV4 31 Aug 2010 19:30 What bikes do you race with? Or are you just doing track days on it? I ask because with Wera the class it fits in is the A Class (litre bikes). In order for a VFR to be competitive w/ modern litre bikes you would have…
  27. Voltage Meter fitted 30 Aug 2010 21:39 Nice job but at only 12.4 Volts you may need a new battery.
  28. Custom rear wheel anyone? 18 Aug 2010 17:12 [image: View Post]Bent, on 17 August 2010 - 02:32 PM, said: When you make a LIGHTER VFR wheel, you'll have a complete job. VFR wheels are incredibly heavy. Go pick up a BMW cast wheel of the same diameter and width.…

  30. California Suoerbike School 17 Aug 2010 16:07 The Komodos are getting really good recommendations from racers, definitely one I will look at next time I need one. I witnessed at a Wera race last year a guy on a litre bike crash going in to turn 1 at Nashville at…
  31. California Suoerbike School 16 Aug 2010 17:44 When I first heard he was switching to 1000CC bikes for training I thought WTF is he thinking.Then I read his article in CW and it makes a little more sense now. Basically he said that the new Beemer is by far the…
  32. Motorcycle Consumer News - Dont Count! 9 Jul 2010 18:46 I read that article this am and I was surprised at the anti VFR bias in there and I haven't even ridden one yet. My guess is the next years version will address some of those issues. I have ridden an FJR tho and its…
  33. Suggestions on rerouting 5th gen headers to show off SSSA 4 Jun 2010 21:22 I dont know for sure but I think the high mount will interfere w/ sidecases. Anyone else know for sure?

  35. New Honda Red Rider Magazine 28 Jan 2010 20:06 [image: View Post]SEBSPEED, on 28 January 2010 - 12:23 PM, said: I picked up a few paper copies at the IMS show in NYC last weekend. :fing02: So your scanner is broken?
  36. 6th gen Stuck Oil Filter 19 Nov 2009 19:38 20 in pounds maybe, I never used a wrench to put one on. The filter will tighten itself w/ the heat cycles so hand tight has always been golden. If all else fails stab that beotch.
  37. Picture request: aftermarket rear sprocket 12 Nov 2009 18:42 [image: View Post]LilRichard, on 12 November 2009 - 12:00 PM, said: Quick question, I see alot of "530 conversion" kits out there - can someone explain what exactly that means, and the benefit of doing such? I assume it…

  46. Alright Stop It Damnit! 16 Sep 2009 17:01 Well if your gonna crash do it on a racetrack. I've crashed twice this year on a track and other than breaking and bending a few parts on the bike its much better than crasing on the street.
  47. My Season Is Officially Over. Pictures Added. 16 Sep 2009 16:45 Damn Dimitry sorry this happened to you but glad to hear your still alive. I would suggest talking to a lawyer, not one of the DB's you see on TV but a good one. Word of mouth is the best way to find one. It wont cost…
