What did you get your VFR for Christmas ?

After many years of wistfully eyeing off friends VFRs equipped with aftermarket shocks I've finally got my VFR the present it deserves a beautiful near new Ohlins HO-801 rear for Christmas....

Many thanks goes to fellow VFRWorld lister " Pap11y " who for his own good reasons has decided to abstain from biking for a while but rest assured his shock has gone to a good home. :biggrin:

 

I got a new rear shock, rebuilt forks and a Bazzaz Z-Fi.

 

I got a slightly damaged seat, I was going to send off to sargent for a little of his magic. But since the vfr12 is totaled, I guess I'll put it back up for sale.

 

nothing yet, but Im getting a 04 VFR for Xmas in a few days

 

Last Christmas was the big one. My '07 got the OEM hard cases, a PC5, Sargent Seat and Heli-Bars. This year, it's just new tires. It's better than nothing though.

 

Very nice :drool:

 

Just synthetic oil. It will get a new tire for Easter!

 

I just got mine some custom lights and racing plastics. I'll have it painted late jan/early feb.

 

Very nice on the Ohlins Me, not so much for the bike I don't have, but. my family (my sons idea) all chipped in for a trip tp Laguna Seca / Motogp. that and on a memorabilia thing, he also found my shoei x9 helmet from the mid 90s I had lost due to a freeway accident. I had no idea the kids loved that helmet so much.

 

oil and mobil 1 filter lol

But lets keep it on the DL, cause the bike thinks santa brought it

 

Givi windscreen, Helibars, Garmin Nuvi. Still thinking about a Sargent seat.

 

I gave mine a valve adjustment.

 

plus 2 new bt023's, a new stator & rr, a new battery, a new 30 amp fuse holder, and vfrness...

its been a rough month lol

 

Waiting for my modified 929 shock for my '86 RWB from JDM. Better late than never (not Jamie's fault, ordered too late for the big day). Forks will be done before the thaw as well.

 

Scottoiler on order soon They have a special on with free dual injector.

 

I just can't see the point in those things. - Modern chain lube, e.g. Bel Ray chainlube, lasts for hundreds of kilometres before needing another application.

 

How many km between applications for you and how often do you adjust your chain?

Ps: You can use your old engine oil in them, just make sure to filter it lots.

 

Probably 500km between applications and I haven't adjusted my chain in 9000km.

Your old engine oil will still fling off the chain; proper chain lube will not do that.

 

I ordered a set of race tech springs that I have yet to install.
Now that I have my xmas moneyz I'll be ordering a DID XV gold chain and F+R sprockets.

 

New riding boots and pants for me. A new Zero Gravity Sport Touring shield for the vfr. New handlebars and front master cylinder for the Goldwing.
