    Hi everybody!

    my name is Askar and I live in Astana, Kazakhstan. riding bike since 2003. currently I own 2002 VFR800. I like it very much, usually riding as much as possible. however now we are in a deep winter with -25C. looking forward for spring and new riding. one thing I like to improve in my bike - some gap in acceleration around 7000 rpm, I heard it is because of VTEC. any ideas how to reduce this gap (ideally remove completely).

    Hey there from the states! So how do you manage to get your bike around cars like these:

    Ha ha ha, just kidding ya! With that acceleration problem you'll want to look at the Power Commander. It's an add-on product that changes the fuel injection mapping and it's supposed to smooth out the acceleration.

    Welcome Askar! I loved your movie "Borat!" Did you play a part in it?

    Are sportbikes a common sight in Kazakhstan?

    You'll have to excuse Joey Askar...ya see, he was raised differently as you can see from the picture.
