Which just means that we should be ceramic coating instead of wrapping.
At the moment, the budget won't allow for two bikes (and Europe is part of why, the budget opens up considerably after we get back). Which is why...
So yours just has the upgraded shock and forks? what tires do you run? (I'm running pirelli sport demons)
I really do love my 1986 VFR. But... (and there's always a "but...") 26 year old technology is 26 year old tech. And if it wasn't my...

Riding home from work on thurs, I bumped the front up to 38psi. I've ridden about 120 miles like that now. Very different handling. Quicker...
I'm fairly certain that it wasn't rejetted when the supertrapps were added, based on the factory idle screw covers are still intact (complete with...

I'm trying to get a hold of Jamie about a new rear shock, it rides pretty soft back there. I upped the pre-load again and that helped, but I'm...
probably ~25K miles on the packing in the supertrapps. I took one of them apart over the weekend, and found a 1/8-1/4" gap between the perforated...
ahh, nevermind, then.
From reading the wheel swap FAQ, the F1 wheel is a perfect swap up front, but is 2.5" instead of the more standard 3" of the F2. But what about...
captb - What exhaust is that? I noticed on my 86 F2 with a centerstand, that it folds up and strikes a tab welded to the exhaust to stop further...
