    what did you do to your vfr today?

    Ouch, that is steep Randy. What makes the local system irksome is that I pay about 3x for a bike than for a car; the justification is that as a...

    what did you do to your vfr today?

    You make a good point OOTV. Actually the deciding factor of whether I get a ride in is more likely what my significant other decides I need to do...

    what did you do to your vfr today?

    Nice selfies Jeff! I just got back from 300km on the VFR1100ST. A balmy 20C but a bit windy with the odd shower. [IMG] [IMG] Sent from my...

    Thermostat/radiator temps

    Short hops like that are bound to use more fuel. Yes you have a 6th gen, 2002 to 2012, 7th gen is the 1200, 8th gen is the 2014-current 800....

    Thermostat/radiator temps

    The thermostat should be open by around 80C, and I would expect it to get there within a couple of miles. Whether it then gets to 90C would depend...

    Battery drainage & access to battery

    In your last picture there is a black knob coming up through the frame member, looks like a contact switch to set off the alarm or immobilise the...

    Battery drainage & access to battery

    Not getting great gas mileage

    You might take a look at the vacuum line to the fuel pressure regulator; there is a diaphragm in the regulator that reduces fuel pressure in...

    Who has named their bikes?

    I call my red VFR "Thing One" and the red VTR is "Thing Two". A Dr Seuss reference, and also because my wife can't tell them apart.

    What Keeps Feeding Electrical Gremlins?

    I'd try an impact driver and hammer; whoever invented that combination deserves a gold star. The trickiest thing for you will be access as you...

    Radiator Flush or ???

    I had something similar on my ST1100 which had been parked up for 10 years and had suffered a coolant leak before that. Lots of scaly corrosion,...
