sunofwolf, I think you have lost your mind if you shut the bike off when you stop. I doubt that saves significant gas, and its pretty dangerous...
sunofwolf, what would the point be of only putting 1.5 gallons of gas in a 5.2 gallon tank? Do you enjoy gas stations?
I have heard getting the dampers out takes time and is a pita. I actually paid a local shop to do mine and had a few other things done at the...
Just curious, what is on your radar? Good competitors to the VFR800 I see are the Ninja 1000, Triumph Sprint ST/GT, BMW F800GT........always...
The VFR you got likely has shot suspension. My '03 had about 30k mi on the clock when I got it and the front suspension was total mush, and the...
yeah i figured the spacers out. The Motechs come with the fat spacer and the thin ones. I already had spacers in there from my Givi PLXR...
Pilskin, i don't mind a ball busting........i roll with the sarcasm of this site and dish it out from time to time too. I just want to end this...
Yeah, a bit of egg on my face, but I am not too proud. Now of days where you get little more than a picture of an exploded parts diagram it can...
Ok, I need to post a redaction. Turns out I had these rails on backwards, and so I was putting the bolt through the wrong hole! So it went on...
I have Givi PLXR side racks on my '03 VFR800, work great! I ordered the SW-MOTECH Alu-Rack from Twisted Throttle, because it has a nice profile...
I put it on the center stand. Spun the first wheel, heard a bit of rubbing on the brake pad, my understanding is this is normal. How much...
I am relatively short, 5' 7". When I sit on the VFR, my legs do not touch the top of the tank where it flares out. If I raise my legs, putting...
I went with the SW-MOTECH top rack. I think it looks better, and its quick release and has a nice profile to it. I just have to find some longer...
h3nry, i hear what you are saying, but RPM's dropping is not normal operation for a bike with no O2 sensors and a dynotune. Closed loop mode is...
Been off the bike for a while. I just for back on and noticed that when I pull the clutch in and let it coast there is a sound and feel that is...
yes, it sucks! I notice it happens more at night, when its cool. almost makes me wonder if the IAT is involved somehow. Bike temp is fine, its...
Just an update to this crazy escapade. I still have dropping RPM's at steady throttle. I had my bike Dynotuned, custom map for the PCV. I was...
it doesn't seem right to constantly blow the horn/signal fuses. I did some major troubleshooting on my VFR800, and stripped it down, and there is...
Are you using a VFRness? I ask because I had a similar thing happen. I had my R/R go out and some electrical gremlins. In the midst of...
Your bike looks really nice, with some really nice upgrades. Question: Why did you re-paint the entire bike? That's a nice paint job, curious...
