Outstanding! Welcome to The World. Ride safe, have fun.
Jeff: Teflon tape will not be eaten by the brake fluid. It is incredibly chemically stable. Teflon was the result at DuPont of a "failed"...
108 on the test ride? I bet you can't wait to try the other two gears! Welcome to The World. Ride safe and have fun!
Primo's absolutely right. 2000 Yellow is by far the fastest (except for 07 Metallic Red).
Name? Surely it's "Lord Vader".
Dontae: First of all, welcome to the World. I traded my SV650 for an 07 VFR and couldn't be happier with it. To answer your questions: 1....
Kirk: Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! My red 06 hasn't turned a wheel since October due to the frickin' cold and snow we've had in the...

Blackstone charges $25 for the basic analysis and another 5$ for TBN (total base number). TBN is about how much of the stuff they put in the oil...
Speaking of incompetence: The thread title is wrong but text in body is correct; it's Honda HP4S full synthetic.
Got the oil analysis results back from the second oil change on my '07 sixth gen and am disappointed with the story it tells. The executive...
VFRH: What fixed it before (cleaning the carb) might very well fix it again. With the bilge that passes for gas these days some carbs (such as...
