We will have to agree to disagree on that one. I have a 5th, and I ride it hard on my own, or loaded up with the wife on the back on some of the...
The flashing is telling you there is something wrong with your No2 injector. Lose, open contact or short to No2 injector wire, or faulty No2 injector.
The steering geometry of any VFR is very sedate, and they do not need a steering damper. If your bike is doing anything funny, a steering damper...
+ 1 on buying OEM. Price difference is not worth buying anything else. It's not a job you want to do again any time soon.
I believe the actual swing arms are different as they pivot in different places, but the components like wheel carrier, bearings and seals are the...
Did an oil change last night before a ride this morning. Wlaked into the garage to find a small oil patch under the bike. After close inspection,...
To give you an idea, a 6 year old K1300S with 20K miles sells for more than a brand new VFR800 here. And it's still a big heavy bike, goes and...

When I was going to plug mine to try a smaller bleed hole, I thought of a tight aluminium dowel with epoxy, but changed to heavier oil instead to...
