I love the rush of acceleration that the VTEC transition provides. Forget the practical reasons why VTEC is a brilliant idea, nothing beats that...
I've ridden pretty aggressively with a short sleeve shirt on. Never again... I look back on that and feel so lucky nothing bad happened.
I love the new CBR1000RR but I couldn't bring myself to get another inline 4... it has to be something unusual like a Vwhatever. I'd get a Duc 848...
I used to watch the vlogs from that guy, RideYourRide. It was very entertaining and he has a lot of excellent common sense tips to share. He...
According to the shop manual, VTEC will not engage unless the engine coolant is over 149F. It is not wise to rev an engine or put it under a high...
I don't care about weight now because my '06 had no trouble staying with the 600-750 crowd during a recent local outing. Of the 30-40 bikes I was...
Blocking the PAIR valve may very well affect the response off-idle, but I can't say for sure. What's actually happening is the mixture goes from...
You forgot to mention cow farts. :biggrin: To each his own. I believe we contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, and we should do everything...
Hype or not, it should be clear to anyone that when you pump tons upon tons of NOx, HC, and CO into the atmosphere that otherwise wouldn't be...
I doubt many people will disagree, but that ABS system is really great! I've engaged mine and the bike stops straight and true, and in a very...
I find the LBS unobstrusive on my '06. Honda apparently modified them for the 6th gen and probably for good reason. It is clear to me the amount...
I've just proved exactly how the PAIR valve works on my '06. I needed to check the air filter anyway :) When the engine is below about 160...
Interesting thread... On every modern pulsed air injection system I've ever seen, the system is only used when the engine is cold and in...
I'd also add that mine is considerably smoother now than it was brand new. I'm not sure what is responsible for that, but I'm certain it can't be...
Coincidentally, my '07 TL Type-S 6 speed has the same problem with 3rd gear--often it never seems to want to engage all the way, and ends up...
Well don't run off making generalizations. Clearly some people answered your question and some innocently made a joke about the popularity of such...
I used 93 octane before I discovered the bike is designed to run on "86 or higher". There is of course no difference in rideability that I can...
I wouldn't expect "gutting" the cat would give you much benefit unless the cat was damaged from overheating (and possible melting). The large...
Yeah I can't say I'm a fan of gear noise either. It reminds me of a car with a noisy power steering pump. Clearly there is nothing wrong with...
Today it got up to 60 during the day so I took the bike out for a few hours... Once she got completely warmed up and did a few wide open runs to...
