    Hi there,

    I got a second hand VFR800 (02') on Saturday.
    I wonder if there are common issues that needs to be fixed on 02'

    I happened to watch snorkel removal video on Youtube and I am going to do the same thing on mine.

    The charging system is the weak point in these Hondas.

    I would check your stator output and r/r function.

    As always, with a new to you bike, the usuals - tires, brakes, forks, hydraulics new fluid and bled

    Wouldn't hurt to check the tightness of fasteners also

    There's the "Big Blue Connector" to worry about, right? If I remember correctly the "Big Blue Connector" was involved in a Honda recall maintenance notice.
