  1. Rear Wheel Conversion (Car Wheel) 14 Mar 2011 15:19 [image: View Post]2FAST4U, on 14 March 2011 - 08:05 AM, said: Good job. Now how about a matching front wheel?? Seriously, I've always thought a size 190 tire would look better than a 180. The CBR1k has a 190 and is a…
  2. Bike Ergonomic Web App 10 Nov 2010 04:10 Coolest thing ever! I was running the measurement numbers to compare the Tuono V4, the Kawasaki z1000, and the CB1000r. Now I can see them side by side. Thanks!
  3. Alignment question 19 Feb 2010 21:46 Seb - I will check. Ryanme17 - Good point! I didn't think of that. All I know if I used to have to hang my rear end off to the left to keep the bike going straight. I took the wheel off, then put it back on, and now I…
  4. Alignment question 19 Feb 2010 19:06 [image: View Post]Auspa�ol, on 05 January 2010 - 08:27 AM, said: Did you ever come to any conclusions on this one? Kind of... The spacers weren't the issue. As fas as I can tell there is no way to get them mixed up on…
  5. Need to find Comfort on my VFR800-Help 19 Feb 2010 18:48 I'm going to be the first guy to say IT MAY NOT BE POSTURE! Posture helps BUT - The geometry of the bike could be off. I have a Sergeant seat and heli-bars and for a year hated riding my bike because not matter how…
  6. Alignment question 28 Dec 2009 23:41 [image: View Post]Baileyrock, on 28 December 2009 - 03:25 PM, said: Check tire pressures! :rolleyes: Done. That's the one thing I'm good at ;)
  7. Alignment question 28 Dec 2009 23:11 Ah, it�s good to see the usual suspects ;) Sounds like it�s a front end issue� I did not adjust my chain, but I did lube it. I guess I could check the SSSA pinch bolt. As soon as I look up what that is in the manual. I…
  8. Alignment question 28 Dec 2009 20:07 Hello guys! I haven’t been around for awhile and haven’t had a chance to do much riding either. In fact, I just got my license back after a 5-month suspension due to medical issues. Anyway, right before my license was…
  9. Benefits of Power Commander on stock 6th gen? 28 Dec 2009 19:54 I don't think Coyze's map will work if you have a 2006 due to the vtec transition points. Give it a shot though. I had my 2006 custom mapped and you're welcome to give it a shot.
  10. The "vfr Is Dead" Thread. 9 Oct 2009 00:04 It gets Honda back into the hyper-bike market that they left when they kilt the 1100xx. Odds are it'll be an awesome sport tourer. But yes, it will be bigger and heavier than the current 800. It will also eat the…
  11. New V4 Vfr Web Site Is Up! 11 Aug 2009 16:20 Next bike will be a ~1000cc V2 or V4 standard/naked/streetfighter ala Tuono/Streefighter/SuperDuke. I got no use for a 1200 tourer, unless it handles like the current 800cc VFR, then they have my interest. I do more…
  12. New Lowered Footpegs (buell Ulysses) 24 Jun 2009 20:49 Inquiring minds want to know; projected price?
  13. 2003 Veefer - Tires Best Fit To Climate 19 Jun 2009 22:51 Daniel, I live in Las Vegas, Nevada USA. The climate may be very similar to Israel. I use Continental Road Attacks. They are sticky enough and seem to last long enough. The problems we have here are sand in the corners…
  14. A Little Disapointed With My New Vfr 6 Apr 2009 16:16 Congratulations on your new bike! You can try my PC map, but it was made for American gas... But I noticed the stock PCIII map really smoothed out the throtle, so maybe you can try that before going with a custom one.
  15. Is The Vfr800 The Ultimate All-rounder? 30 Mar 2009 17:18 The list is too small. The VFR is awesome and can fill many purposes. But, my next bike is going to be the Aprilia Tuono. It will meet my all-round needs ;)
  16. Vfr800 2002 Strange Engine Sound. Vtec? 27 Mar 2009 22:39 Welcome! I started getting ticking when I switched to Mobile 1 Synthetic. Didn't know it meant something was wrong. Means I have to head over to Toddulu's to see if his bike ticks...
  17. Engine Break-in 25 Mar 2009 18:30 BLS - You are obviously the smartest man in the room. Thank you so much for the informative write up. I wonder though what the effects of break in are on the ceramic doped cylinder walls and hard-lubricant coated…
  18. Lsl Superbike Kit Installed! 19 Mar 2009 16:22 Awesome! More pics! Did you have to do any drilling for the LSL clamps, or are the top triple clamps replaced by LSL ones? Are there any other components that set rider geometry other than the bars and clamps? Thanks.
  19. I Never Realized This Was Happening... 29 Dec 2008 23:42 That's thanks to the soft stock sproingers. As you are leaned over and entering a corner your suspension gets smooshed up, bringing your hard parts closer to pavement. Your pipes will be safe when you get some stiffer…
  20. A Not So Good Day! 26 Nov 2008 22:35 Dood, that sux! I have not personally had to use heli-coil, but I have heard good things about it from two experienced mechanics. In the very least it's cheaper than a new head. Good luck!
  21. At Least They Have The V4 In Their Minds... 20 Nov 2008 20:59 I like the black and white... I think Yamaha is doing what Honda was 10-20 years ago which is; innovate, invest in racing, make cool stuff. Honda has settled in to relaible and average. Flame on :491:
  22. Question About Power Commander Map. 29 Oct 2008 18:30 WC, It's hard to tell without a Dyno run to compare the two. However, I think it should work better. Your current map was made for bikes with cats, which you no longer have. Fortunately it's easy enough to swap the two…
  23. Solved My Overheating Problems Once And For All! 10 Oct 2008 21:26 That's great news! Congratulations Todd. I'll be in Santa Barbara next week, but when I get back let's break that thing in.
  24. Rusty's '07 Dyno Run 9 Oct 2008 19:19 [image: View Post]ROUSE, on Oct 9 2008, 11:45 AM, said: what if you experience an erection lasting lasting more then 4 hours. :blink: Then you know it's working ;)
  25. Rusty's '07 Dyno Run 9 Oct 2008 17:50 Someone try my map :)
  26. My Vfr Was Hit Today 2 Oct 2008 22:31 My insurance company acts as a broker in these situations. You should call yours. They may handle everything for you. Good luck!
  27. Cargo Net Suggestions? 2 Oct 2008 16:37 Harbor Freight had a cammo one for ~$6. I don't see it in thier catalog anymore. It gets the job done.
  28. Custom Pciii Map For 2006-2008 Try It! 26 Sep 2008 16:52 I originally posted this in the 'Exhuast' forum... I _finally_ posted a custom PCIII map I had professionaly made. Link in signature. I just want some people to try it out and let me know what they think. I'd also be…
  29. New Viffer Owner 24 Sep 2008 19:43 Liked riding it so much you forgot to check the fuel guage? :fing02: Welcome!
  30. 4 Wheels Moves The Body, 2 Wheels Move Soul (long With Pics) 17 Sep 2008 18:32 AW, I think I have road grit in both eyes. pass... tissues...
  31. Losing Coolant... 3 Sep 2008 18:37 Jeez Todd... The fun never stops with your little red bike, does it? Good luck! Mime's all gimped with a nail in the rear tire. I have the rear wheel in my truck. Hopefully I get over to Motorcycle Tire Shop this…
  32. Future Honda Technology 25 Jul 2008 21:01 Let the Auto vs. Manual Holy Wars begin.... I have no issue with CVT. Expect to see it in the future. It'll help a ton in stop and go traffic. For (streetable) cars and trucks there is no longer a valid argument for…
  33. Shoot Me Now Please 25 Jun 2008 15:05 Skuuter has it right. Odds are that DN-01 will be a fun little skoot. I wouldn't BUY one, but it'll attract new 'riders' to our sport and get people out of cages. Good for traffic, the environment, gas prices, peoples…
  34. Vfr Triple Clamp Project 20 May 2008 22:58 What's the easiest way to get super bike bars? Would I need home made upper tripples for that? Is there a kit or something already out there?
  35. Cycle World, June 2008 Issue Came In Today 14 May 2008 21:49 1) I caught those pictures too, but couldn't access the site that day 2) The Honda 250 does look like it belongs in a 3rd world country. That was funny. 3) Going off-topic is acceptable sometimes... like in silly…
  36. Tiforce (single) Exhaust On My Vtec 17 Apr 2008 21:50 Nice one. Here's a bad picture of an FSD undertail. I'm currently running a 1 up straight pipe with baffles (not seen in pic). There's a ton of room under the tail now, as you mentioned. I mounted the Ohlins adjuster up…
  37. New Shark Rsi Helmet 13 Mar 2008 18:07 That's a great looking helmet. I�ve read great reviews of the Shark. I recently stepped up from the HJC CL-14 (black, large) to the Shoei X-11 (light silver, medium). Paid $435 shipped. Got the HJC about 5-6 years ago…
  38. 1986 Vfr700 Conversion To Electric 11 Mar 2008 20:16 That's awesome. I'm all for experimentation, you just have to be ready to hear from people who don't like change or don't understand what you're trying to do. There's no valid reason not to try something new, as long as…
  39. Need Some Help With Suspension 10 Mar 2008 22:48 This is exactly what I was looking for, thanks. You guys are awesome. I guess I have to buy that adjuster tool.
