Perfectly normal temps for mine as well... It runs at a minimum of 170, but usually around 190-210. It can get as high as 235 in stop-and-go...
My humble opinion: 2000 miles might be a little early to switch to synthetic. Not replacing all your oil should work with the shorter...
I've got a '98 and it's got the "around 7k" vibration. It's noticeable, but nothing I'd classify as "bad" unless you're...
The PCII (stock base map) I installed in my stock '98 really cleaned up the low end and smoothed out the flat spot around 5k rpm, but it didn't...

I figured it out this weekend after messing around for an hour... Thanks anyway! Jake
It's a '98 VFR. Stupid newbie question, I know... But I just picked up the bike yesterday (used) and I didn't get the owner's manual. I need to...
