Taillockers were built and sold by a guy named Talon who stopped a few years back. I had one on my first 4gen and also had troubles with it like many others. Great idea and reasonably well executed but not 100% there.
I bought a tailocker for a CBR600F2 some years ago and followed up on the guy (from NC) than made them. I saw him at a show and asked about a TAilocker for a VFR. He said he could do it but I got the impression that he was getting out the business. I pestered him enough til he sent me one.

So.... What's the replacement? Beemer? Duck? Goose? Hog? Other Rice burner? unsure.gif You're not banned just because you sold your VFR. goofy.gif Stick around, if you like. fing02.gif
I have this question about my umm, drainage duct. J/K, Not really. comp13.gif
Great write up I love to hear people write about their bikes when they love them that much, but I hate to see a guy that loves his bike that much sale it.
YoshiHNS, Nov 14 2007, 08:53 PMOne thing though. 18500 total miles in seven years? (2-3k a year).
good luck with your next buy.
I've had my '98 since '98 with about 46,000 and I'm just now getting to investing in shock, fork springs, power commander and now I want work on it's appearance. To me it's a timeless motorcycle just like all the other generations of Interceptors. After riding an '86 well since '86 I can attest to their indestructability. That one has 86,000 and doesn't use a drop of premium synthetic oil between 3,000 mi oil changes. I miss that bike. May have to buy it back from my friend. I'm going to visit it this Sunday.
Hey UROTRASH : Good luck and hope you find a worthy mount soon. wheel.gif
Rivcyko, Nov 15 2007, 02:51 AMSorry. May I inquire why?
I'm getting ready to buy a 1972 Dino 246GT. It is a restored car, scoring 99.5 points at a regional FCA concours but being an old Italian bucket of bolts will be demanding of time and garage space.
Here's a link although you might have to register to see it.
Sorry to see you leaving the VFR stable. I saw you at the Gap a couple of years ago when you were in a red Miata with your daughter, I believe.
I was impressed with your stable of bikes at the time. Can't get too upset that you are trading your viffer for a Dino GT. I had the opportunity to ride in one of those about 30 years ago and I can still remember the sound of the engine (that beautiful whine). If you miss your yellow viffer, just let me know and I'll come up and we can trade rides (viffer - Ferrari) for a day. goofy.gif
Best of luck to you and I hope you visit this site from time to time.
i watched that bike intently for 5 days and was in the process of scraping together funds for it when it sold, oh well, i'll find one else where 491.gif
