I had an 09 C14 and IIRC the sticker says "Use 90 Octane or higher". North American octane number is AKI, which is (RON +MON)/2. I will tell you...
Problem with marine/boating is: 1. Fuel tends to sit in tank for extended periods, when ethanol's problems can rear its ugly head. 2. Being in a...
Knock on wood... this has not happen to my '10 yet. Noticed some discussion on "warm up". I don't start-n-idle any of my vehicles. Some folks...
This. It definitely depends on where you live and how you ride. VFR1200 is equipped with knock sensor, which is why Honda "recommends" premium...
Everybody's perception is different. I would give it a good test ride. Find some roads you'd consider rough. If you weigh very different fron...
I had 016 Pro on my '07 FZ1. Great tire. However, SS tires like the 016 will wear rapidly on heavier bikes like the 1200. Ask me how I know......
VFR1200 is the 4th shaftie I have owned. Also test rode quite a number of other shafties, both ST's and cruisers. The Viffer Grande is one of -...
LOL! I like it. The best way to fix the problem is not let it bother you. Like I said before, I am fine with the VFR1200's power delivery as...
I would agree that the effect I described is probably not the ONLY cause, and may not even be the primary cause. Fueling could be part of it....
Depending on how the intake is designed, the same effect can happen with any engine. Ever seen a race car or dragster engine idle with large bore...
Sounds like your dealer doesn't know what he's talking about. I believe the same optional Honda top rack would be used with all yrs of VFR1200....
YTZ14S: 150x87x110 Shorai LFX18A1-BS12: 148x66x105 Shorai uses the same case size for several different models, so some are probably not as...
The ballistic charger/balancer is a lot nicer than the Shorai's. Then again, all I do is plug it in every couple of months to balance it, so the...
Que? Never heard of it.
Every 2-3 days?! Heck, most times I gas up on my way home near the house, even though my commute is only 65 miles and with lunch runs and some...
Best post of this thread! I just changed oil on the Viffer over the weekend. No manual necessary. I can kinda understand the OP's gripe about...
My favorite local dealer has a mix set of tire on closeout - Pirelli Dablo Rosso Corsa front and Mezteler Sportec M5 Interact rear - so I figure...
I don't ever measure the amount of oil I put in. I just fill till just shy of the "full" mark on sight window. Crank up and run the engine...
I'm sure you'll be alright. Come to think of it, in the same situation, I'd probably order from The Outlet, since PowerSport SuperSport is in TX,...
