Mine's a 2004. No lag, when I hit the 6700 line I can feel a surge and the exhaust note deepens; no control problems, just that extra power...
For future reference, son found this site when looking for a battery, and I got this oneMBTX9U MotoBatt Motorcycle Battery w/ QuadFlex Technology...
If you can find a simple way, let us know. I'll need to replace the fluid in mine this spring. The manual shows 'suck out all the fluid in...
There is a link to the shop manual that describes it, but I can't get the search function to work right now; soon as can, will see if can find it...
I just did look at it: Bleep! Some surgery is less complicated!
Possible I just didn't push hard enough. Though- hopefully- it'll be quite a while before I need to try again
Ok, here's a question for you: what do you consider the best tire gauge? Preferably something not involving laboratory equipment
Ok, with the old pads in, use the clamp to squeeze the whole thing. Damn, I've got a bar clamp that would've worked well for that. Thanks,...

Did some searching and didn't find anything on this, so: I needed to replace the rear brake pads on my '04. All the instructions say "Push on...

Nice shiny shields are still there. However, once having midjudged(on another bike) what counted as 'adequate clearance', I added the brackets...
Windy as it was, didn't do much accelerating once up to 75; when I did need to add a bit of speed, a little throttle took care of it. And, as...
Just got this bike('04 VFR800) last fall, this was the first chance I've had to ride it on a trip, in this case 100 miles each way. Things...
Could be done; I'll try using this setup a bit, if it works I'll leave it as-is.
Got these and the saddle bags on, here's a rear view. Will tweak the shape a bit; wound up bending them out right behind the bolt hole and then...
Picked up a Givi topcase a few months ago at a local shop. On this one you remove the grab handles and the rack uses the bolts to mount it. If...
I think they're yellow so a supevisor/rangemaster can see if you've got them in. I use an Altoids tin for a first-aid kit I keep on the bike;...
