Hypermiling a bike like the VFR1200 just seems all wrong. It's like driving a Porsche Panamera S grannie-style. But then again... it's you bike...
The lucky one come equipped with a nice pair of headlights and internal lubrication.
My track bunny is a GSXR because parts are everywhere and cheap. I would NOT ride one on the road. I do know of a few VFR1200's in town but have...
Go fast and carve corners FOR THE WHOLE DAY... 3 days straight. We got a 3sisters trip coming up in October. I've done it before with a C14, but...
$11k with OEM saddlebags is pretty much $10k for the bike alone. Probably not the absolute best deal you could catch if you cast a wider net...
Engine-wise, my 2010 is stock except for the 2bro can. No bomb, no surge, no PTSD, no WMD, no IED, no sectarian violence. Won't matter to me if...
Befbever, I find the Ebay HID kits vary in quality, loosely based on price, but not always. I would be willing to bet that all HID kits probably...
There are more than one reason not to run power off of the OEM headlight wiring. The HID ballast is electrically a very noisy device. It is best...
ciprinakos, very nice! I like your setup a lot. Can you say DAYLIGHT?:cool: I've got 4 Morimoto Mini bi-xenon projectors from TRS ready for...
Al Lamb has that excellent deal on the 2012's. Both an F and DCT last time I was up there. If I don't already have my '10, I'd snatch that up....
My riding buddies and I usually do a 3 day weekend tour twice a year - fall and spring. We usually aim for 3Sisters but snake our way there...
Coming from someone with a stable such as yours, that is saying a lot. My experience mostly mirrors yours. I mostly prefer twisty backroads and...
I've been steadily building up tolerance for the heat. With Cycle Gear's HeatOut long sleeve and long johns, plus mesh gear, I'm okay up to 95F...
Those look like they've been put through a salt bath. Actually... that's actually true.:smile: I do feel your pain, which makes me glad to be a...
Cornerexit, hit me up when the time comes. I'll see if I can get a kitchen pass. My riding season officially ended on the 4th of July weekend -...
Gary, I too love riding the Viffer in the Hill Country. It is a sportbike that I can actually ride there from Houston and back, and enjoy every...
Sure hope roads are smooth where you ride.
I judge a machine by its virtues, not its popularity. To me, an unpopular but otherwise great bike can be a rare treat, if it happens to suit...
+1. I've had plenty of bikes that only had an idiot light. No way I'm relying that that. Even with cars that have good fuel gauges, I zero the...
Congrats! I'm surprised that you sound surprised about the gas gauge and range - arguably the #1 complaint topic. :deadhorse: I usually stop...
