Jason, I agree with you on the attributes of the 6th gen VFR, but personally, I don't consider it particularly innovative; not in the sense of the...
My sentiments exactly. Just wish the Big 3 were listening. :mad:
Agreed, that last race with Colin and Troy at Imola was amongst the very best racing I have ever seen, anywhere, anytime! I was screaming at the...
Eddie Lawson. 4 time Grand Prix World Champion. I remember Kenny Roberts, once saying that anyone who could win a World Championship on that 1989...
I guess what I'm worried about most lately is Honda's lack of innovation of late. When the first V-four Hondas came out in '83 they were a...
Thanks! Hope to get out for a day of testing sometime in the next month or so. Maybe I will ride the VFR to testing....hmmm, need to see if I can...
Tell me about it, I still have to order an Aerostitch! The shock for the '99 VFR is an HO801, from what I remember Dan telling me. The shock for...
As some of you may remember, I'm also a photographer, one of the official track photographers for Laguna Seca, and a track photographer for...
LOL! Dan wrote me an email today, and I will be calling him to order an Ohlins for the rear on Monday, and scheduling a Saturday appt. to get the...

Learning on two stroke dirt bikes is the ideal way to learn to be smooth, to be sure.
NorcalBoy, FWIW, I am not an engineer, I am a molecular biologist with a background in human molecular genetics. I'm also a Six Sigma Black Belt,...
I think some forum members may be missing my point...that Honda can get into an overly complex mindset at times when solving problems. This is not...
Personally, I don't understand what's in Honda's "mind" at this time. As much as I bleed Honda red, Honda sometimes gets caught up in doing...
Dskelton... _____________________________________ My first bike was an '86 VF500F as well, which I bought as a 1 yr. old bike in 1987. I thought...
I wouldn't hold your breath for a more sporting Honda V- something (V-4 or V-5) multi being developed. The more sporting (nowadays read full-on...
I would think that the engine life would be well over 100,000 miles, after all, the VFR engine is developed from Honda's endurance racing engine...
