I've got the rims dropped off to the shop. The closest color match we could find is a pearlescent white. He powder coated me a 6" x 3" sample...
Yes, it should have one. For me, the extra weight (little that it is) is worth it. When I park, I always put my bike on the center stand. That...
I owned a new 5th Gen and my only complaint with that bike were the mirrors. Exactly what Keager and Mello Dude said - I was constantly having to...
I started riding when I was 10 on a Montgomery Ward 5.25 HP mini-bike. My friend had an XR80 and his little brother had a Z50. So that my kids...
On my 6th Gen, I went +2 on the rear. Gas mileage is about 44 mpg - just about all of my daily commute is on the highway. I installed a...
I fill my tank to the brim. Even then, the last bar stays lit for maybe 5-10 miles after that.
Have you had the RPM up high enough yet where you've had the VTEC engaged? Since you're new to the bike, I'm curious as to your thoughts on it....
My first bike was a 1986 VF500F. After a few years, I thought I wanted a CBR. I owned a couple of them, then realized that even though they were...

Yes, I had the tires removed yesterday, along with the bearings and seals out of the front rim. The rear rim is so nice to deal with! All I need...
I can't find many places around here that will powder coat my 6th Gen rims. The one that isn't too far away says that they will sand blast and...
I spray the boots with WD-40. I sit on the bike, work the front carbs in first, then using the air cleaner base - press down on the rear carbs...
Now that is a true classic!!!
I pay $220 per year for 4 bikes. That is through Progressive and it is for liability only.
Sorry to hear this. Especially since these bikes are far and few in between in decent shape. I'd consult with a lawyer to see what they...
Like I said, I have the RWB, but I really, really, really like the red. Havcar is right. Make sure you get the seat cowl and the plastic covers...
I have been a life long Honda owner due to their reputation, reliability and longevity. It all started back in 1986 when I bought my first NEW...
I agree. Oil is cheap. I changed mine at 300, then again at 600 miles.
It sounds like you've accomplished a life long goal. Congratulations. You will love your bike. The first thing I'd do is lower the gearing.
The gear whine on my '86 750 is significantly louder than that of my '86 1000. I too have noticed the difference, but didn't think anything of it...
