Happy hunting. Hope you find the old VFR of your dreams.
Nice. My daughter (now in college) and I used to ride almost every Sat. morning together. Once she could reach the foot pegs, I couldn't keep her...
Welcome. Have you been riding something else prior to your VFR or is this your first bike?
Welcome, Jay. I'm not too far down the road from you - Huntsville, AL. Decent riding around here, but not like you have. You're much closer to...
Sweet! That new-fangled transmission sounds pretty high-tech. I imagine it will take a while to get accustomed to the different modes of...
Good luck in your search. I'd suggest you not write-off earlier generations of VFR's. I commute daily (about 40 mile round trip) on my '97...
530 is stock. I recently bought / installed an 'RK Racing' chain/sprocket combo for about $200.
Kevin, I've commuted on a bike daily for the past 20 years. I currently have about a 40 mile commute. Others have already given you great...
Sorry to hear about your friend. Losing someone young is never easy. I'll put you and the family in my prayers.

No way to know who's a nut out there. When I get a rampant tailgater, I flash my brakes like crazy to let them know I'm not happy, sometimes with...
I commute every day with my '97 VFR. In addition to a Givi trunk, I use an old tankbag and Ortlieb Dry Saddlebags. Here's a link to the...
I wish I had more specific ideas for you to try, but my '97 Viffer has run like a champ since I bought it a few years ago. I've spent MUCH time...
If fuel flow is OK, then seems to point to electrical problem in ignition circuit. Since it's 20 years old, could simply be a bad / corroded...
Fuel filter been changed recently? Could be partially clogged.
I had read about doing it that way as well. Ultimately I decided to just follow the instructions that came with my breaker tool. But since I'm a...
Thanks for the 'flare' info! I'll take a closer look and see if I really am done or if I need to crank it down a little more. Excellent...
Success! My first chain & sprocket replacement is behind me. After an initial glitch (front sprocket cover stuck) all went well. I didn't take...
Excellent! That's what I was hoping. Especially since I discovered the local shop can't get the gasket for a few days. Thanks for the info!
[ATTACH] Once I removed the front sprocket cover, I saw that part of the problem in removing the cover was the gasket to the top left of the...
