I would skip the VFRness and get a FH020/012 rewire kit. I say this because the Honda connectors are exposed to the elements. The connector on...
Dimensionally, there is very little difference between the two bikes. If anything I thought the stock 6th gen bike handled a little better than a...
The VFR is such a sweet street bike. I think about selling it sometimes. Then I ride it and remember why I have put the time and money into it...
I have a friend that traded his 2001 VFR for a Blackbird. It's a nice bike. I rode it and it is not nearly as piggy as I thought it would be....
I kinda like it. I am not in the market and won't be for a long while. IF I were I would look at this pretty hard.
Yes, but by that time you may have burnt a valve. The best indicator is your odometer. Do the check every 16,000 miles and if the valves are out...
Ok, that makes sense now. I didn't check the cam bearing clearances on mine. It looked good to my bionic eyeball though.
Ok, I am stumped by the use of Plastigage. What did you use this for?
The Buick Grand National comes to mind... :chaingun:
I see what you are getting at there. I just want a dust cover. An old sheet would work for what I want.
Good buy. I would bleed the brakes. A daunting task unless you have a mityvac. I would buy one since you are a VFR owner. The 5th and 6th...
I standard bike cover will not cause moisture. Perhaps my garage needs to be cleaner, but my bikes accumulate a lot of dust over 3-4 months.
I would go for the SV650 as well. They are great bikes that you really can't outgrow (I hate that term BTW. Can't outgrow a bike unless you are...
I am 5' 8" and have a 1998 VFR. It's a tad tall for me and I have dropped it 4 times. Be SURE that the side stand it up before you take it...
My garage never gets below about 40F so I just put Sta-bil in the tank and leave the batter on the tender. For 5 months I would consider a cover...
Welcome! :cool:
Not nuts at all. It's a cool bike.
EBC lists one part number for the 1998 model. I can't speak about other years because I haven't looked.
Hell yeah. Buying a bike with farkles already on it is a way to get them on the cheap.
I drive down 109 from Gallatin to 40 every week day. :cool:
