Thanks for the kind words - I must admit that while I have a gleaned a few things over the years about motorcycles in general, there are a few...
D'Oh!! That's what I meant... Mea Culpa I'm assuming you've had no clearance problems with the wider front?? Good to know for others...
IIRC (correct me if I'm wrong), the OE sizes for the mini-'Ceptor are 100/90-16-F & 110/90-16-R. One of that bike's best and most admired...
I'm about 200lbs in full regalia w/helmet, and ride fast and quite hard, but smooth. For my '94 I'm running the forks at max preload (OE...
Here's some good info: Clicky Linky --->> Oil Filter Alternatives - Honda Motorcycles Personally, I use a Purolator PureOne PL14610 (longer...
For this reason alone, I'll steer you away from the "premium" brands. You are not likely to ride hard/aggressive enough to need the additional...
I had Metz Z6's on my VFR, but I prefer my new Shinko 009's... Yes - True! I have been a lifelong Metzeler fan and staunch supporter, generally...
Gawd! That 2nd Vid sounds AWESOME! Especially right at the start when you can hear the bikes before they come into view. I LUV the sound of my...
I have nothing to do with this, but I just came across it on craigslist: 1986 Honda VFR 750F If I had the cash I'd get it just because I love...

Good thread :pop2: I can't believe that no one has mentioned the obvious choice for a First Bike for a (future...) VFR'r... VF500 Interceptor...
Well, thanks for the input everyone! However, in light of all of your info, and in consideration of my budget (near nil), it looks like I'll have...
Hmm... Not the news I was hoping for (or expecting). Thanks tho! Anyone done this? Any input on easiest/cheapest way for better calipers?...
Well, it seems my front brake rotors are probably in need of a rebuild. Instead of the hassle of rebuilding both calipers with new seals etc.,...
It's very likely that either your throttle cable(s) has been mis-routed (behind the fork tube, for instance) and is being pushed or pulled by the...
Update Wow, I didn't think anyone was interested - I had posted this update elsewhere, and copied it here. Here ya go (OK, It's definitely a LONG...
OK, this brand has been somewhat controversial, so I decided to try them just to see... The truth is that in recent years I've been "economically...
