Actually I agree with your assessment, the chassis is better/steadier on the 6G (probably due to the 43mm forks and longer swing-arm) and the VTEC...
Nope I missed all that. I was out of the VFR loop for a few years until a bought my 99 in 2014. Are you saying the VTEC is better than a 5th gen...
Yes I'm well aware of VVT engines but the key there is in the first V i.e. variable. Even my daughter's sh1tbox 2000 1300cc Toyota Duet had an...
Well I think the NR500 was in stop and go traffic (as in it stopped, and then wouldn't go). I believe what we are observing is called...
It's in Honda's DNA! Don't fight it![ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I think you are right to a point but there is probably method to Honda's madness. At a complete standstill, the air on the inside of the...
I had a related issue on my VFR1200, the lever on the bike is not quite right for the master (a puzzle I've not yet cracked) and where the brake...
You mean there is ANOTHER tool that I need to buy??? I usually replace those bolts with socket heads and use my T-bar allen key.
The CB1000GT reminds me a bit of my MT-10SP which doesn't do badly as a sport-tourer aside from over-firm suspension. The MT has a belter of an...
Interesting old thread reboot. Jim you should be aware that you have strayed into the 7th Gen section (VFR1200) which shares nothing in common...
The stock VFR fan pulls air in from the outside. If you read the owners manual it states that if the temp reaches 122C, its time to switch off...
Yamaha have been trying other things with the 900 triple for a few years now, I think they had a turbo concept bike, and currently there is talk...
You probably need to read the manual mate....
Lest we forget...the emissions regulations that production bikes must meet are not getting any easier. The electric forced induction/smaller...
A photo I took in a department store just off Shibuya Crossing. Bruce Wayne needs one I think.[ATTACH]
I visited Japan in 2018 and bought a Shoei GT-Air 2 from Ricoland in Kyoto, a great shopping experience as they did a custom fit for my cheekpads...
It took me about 2 hours per cylinder head, and I am far from a professional. That gets the standard valves checked, the cams out and VTEC...
The VFR1200 clutch is a bit heavier than say the VFR800 that I also have. I think your only option to reduce the pull would be to change the slave...
We are blessed with no salted roads here, but most of NZ is coastal so salt spray can be merciless. I think that the rear headers are steel down...
I had one of those so long ago that the world was still in black and white! Loved the gold Comstar wheels against the blue/white. [ATTACH]
