As I heard, those are the most critical and mostly the only parts that breaks on Hondas

OK, a little joke. But I know about the rectifier issues so I installed active fan on it...

1. Do you know of any other way to resolve this error?

2. If the ECM needs to be replaced, is there a difference between part numbers 38770-mcw-L02 and 38770-mcw-L03?]]> 2 Fri, 03 Jan 2025 17:01:13 +0000 https://vfrworld.com/threads/new-v4-owner.62163/ https://vfrworld.com/threads/new-v4-owner.62163/ invalid@example.com (Gator417) Gator417 Not a new rider but new to the V4 club.

Good afternoon from Viladecavalls - Catalonia
I'm one of the rare ones who has a Crosstourer, bought to keep a V4 under my ass without hurting my back...
I'll take a look around here...

I have always liked the ST1300 and have ridden a number of them while working for a Honda dealership. I had never owned one however. I found a 2006 w ABS, that had only 36,513 miles on the clock. The owner said it was started and...

Not Really a New VFR Rider]]> 4 Thu, 25 Jul 2024 15:24:05 +0000 https://vfrworld.com/threads/new-vfr750-owner.61834/ https://vfrworld.com/threads/new-vfr750-owner.61834/ invalid@example.com (Waynester1971) Waynester1971
After 35 years riding & owning bikes, I have finally purchased my first VFR, a white, all original 1991 VFR750 with 14k miles.

I have serviced it, had the valves checked..all good. I removed the exhaust to replace the manifold gaskets, but for the life of me…I cannot find the torque settings for the stud bolts?? I have a workshop manual & can’t even find it in there ‍♂️

If anyone knows I’d be grateful

Awesome bike...

I've never ridden a motorcycle, but I've got quite a lot of experience on e-bikes, for what that's worth. I've wanted a motorcycle for years, and I've finally decided to get my license and buy one, notably, I'm in the market for a VFR. My brain says the 6th gen is a better purchase due to (I think) wider availability of parts, but my heart loves the yellow 2000.

I'm watching quite a few 5th and 6th gen VFRs on facebook marketplace, but as I'm new, I'd like to get some advice on...

~11 year rider here from SoCal; after doing a lot of research I settled on the VFR as my next bike (hopefully a bike I'll keep for a long time/forever?) Just got my first VFR800, a 2014 standard version with low miles. I've only ridden it once to get it home, but it was a great ride!

A few things I need to learn/address - the front brake/wheel makes a buzzing sound after the front brake is applied until it comes to a stop - haven't seen that one before.

Also - I bought the bike...

Having owned three VFRs I thought it was the right time to finally join the forums!

First was a candy red 2007 with triple luggage and twin oval carbon Delkevics, made the bike really scream.

Second was an epic sounding 1999 5th gen in yellow, with a titanium race can, Ohlins and other nice things.

As of last week, I now have a 2015 in red (soon to be repainted GREEN - I'll make a thread about this!) with triple luggage and a scorpion exhaust, in amazing condition - 6...

So this morning I decided to purchase a 99 vfr800 in red over a cbr600f4i as a last minute decision, and will hopefully be collecting the beauty this weekend. I thought I'd better join a forum straight away as that's generally where all the knowledge lies. I hope to learn a lot about the magnificent v4 and have a lot of fun in the process. There's a couple of things I'd like to change about it from the test drive, such as changing the aftermarket exhaust to sit higher and fitting...
