Sorry I don't believe it's criticism, I believe it's a very valid point. That rear stand sitting in the garage won't do you any good on a trip...
It's called a rear wheel stand. You need one made especially for the VFR hub. Why you removed the centerstand and now need to pay a lot of money...
I don't know much about the 1000 series especially in the land of Oz but aren't those motors different? IIRC, the 84 1000 is the original VF...
I probably heard about it first from the mail list years ago but it was a google search for the Texas VFR garage that got me here.
Not a 5th gen but I have a friend with an 86 VFR750F with #12.
Listen to the high pitched whine on my 4th gen, that's the gear drive. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=18JIXXJYpWM Note: bike has been...
If you can't do the math in your head nor want to spend $100+ for a speedo' healer, you can get a bicycle computer (sigma, etc) in the $20 range...
Don't feel bad. Starting with a new 84VF700, I've "come back" 7 times over the last 22 years!
Going by the pics of the 5th gen, it's slightly larger with more finning on the backside but by far the biggest difference is the mounting...
yes and no. 6th gen r/r's are the best of the breed and the fail rate is no where near the older years. It does sound electrical in nature...

Off PCH1, before Gualala, is stewarts point road. I've only done it in a rental car while on vacation but it was still awesome even in a F#$%ing...
Salvage title?
Two issues I had with my first 4th gen (94) with about the same mileage was the r/r going out (do a search) and the starter clutch eventually...
If all the bodywork is damaged including the tank plus the typical stuff like bar end, mirror, engine cover, etc., you might be looking at a...
I can't believe no one has suggested a good ol' regular tank bag. I have a large hd one than can even carry a 12 pack (ahemm, softdrinks of...
Do you have proof of this? Honda or any manufacturer could have easily done this, so why haven't they? It's my understanding the R/R mates to a...
The VTEC valve maintenance interval is the same as all other VFR's (16k) but is more involved labor wise thus a higher rate. You'd need a special...
+1 on just having one made but if you want to buy one try Thurn Motorsports http://www.thurn-motorsport.de/html/vfr.html of Germany but be...
Skip those mods and get a PC3. If that's too expensive, get a techlusion TFI box at about 1/2 price of PC3. Cheaper still, get a used TFI box...
