At 13,500 miles, the valves should be just fine. What exactly was the mishap that you're talking about? I couldn't derive what that was from...
There you go. Problems solved! Like EVERY Honda I've ever owned, this bike is bulletproof.
Wow! It looks great and sounds great in the video. I look forward to the maiden voyage report.
The wear pattern that you have explained on both of your tires is EXACTLY the same pattern I had on my bike. I bought my bike new and have taken...
I think it's great when the 500 actually gets some attention. The restoration looks great. The white rims are the way to go. I did the same...
Do you have any pictures other than your avatar?
I'm thinking the same thing since it is inline with the white from the seat cowl right to the front of the bike. I'm only concerned about the...
Congratulations on the purchase. It sounds like it's a new bike. To smooth out the VTEC, you can take a look at adding a Power Commander. I'd...
Yup. The VFR is no CBR. If I had kept the 5th Gen, I would have geared it down too. The way I look at it, the VFR is a niche bike, kind of like...
From the picture I remember seeing, your R is pretty cherry. In that condition, they routinely go for $6K+. Earlier this year, one on eBay went...
Thanks 1FireGal. You just saved me a ton of work. I am buying a Sargent seat for my RWB and had it on my list to tackle the color matching issue...
Talk about doing a complete 180! If I had to give up all of my bikes but the R, I'd be perfectly happy. It's a great machine. I'd say you made...
Compared to a true sport bike, the VFR is still sporty, but yet comfortable. However, it doesn't have the comfort of an ST for the rider or...
Toe Cutter is just busting your chops. Your opinion is your opinion - it's not right or wrong. As far as the comparison stats you posted, those...
I don't know if anyone has seen this yet, but there is a 2012 VFR1200. I know there was a thread or two out there questioning whether Honda was...
And then you'll have others like me say the exact opposite. I have actually owned both, but it comes down to personal preference. He needs to...
Yes, the R is an awesome bike. I put a few hundred miles on mine this summer. It goes good, but it is heavy. My main complaint are the brakes....
Thanks Alaskan. I wanted to post this in order to give others ideas too.
That's crap. Here in NY, part of your registration fee for snomobiles, dirt bikes and ATVs is supposed to go to a trail fund. There have been...
Yes, I am with you on this. I get on one of my older bikes and after a few days, you get used to the power and handling. You start pushing it...
