Matt - why go through all that trouble? Parts for the 500 are readily available on eBay. Anything off the 750 would have to be modified to fit...
Wow. I've haven't visited this site in 2 months and I can't believe that this thread is still kicking. It is definitely winter here in the...
I'm OK with it. Honda could re-issue the 5th Gen or even the 4th Gen and the bike would still serve the needs of the niche market that it...
I'm using the Bridgestone Battlax BT45 tires on my 750. I also run them on my 500. On the rear, I'm running 1 over on the width and I think the...
If I wasn't on the east coast, I'd love to help you out. I've got the entire 1986 line up.
I've never had a problem doing this on any of my bikes. Typically, the fan never runs for more than 30 - 60 seconds after killing the engine, so...
Keep us informed as to how your repair is coming. It still makes me sick when I think about what happened to your 1000R. I hope you can get it...
Gunzer - if the fan is on, then I will turn off the motor, but leave the ignition on so that the fan can run until it cools the engine down enough...
Yes, that was my thread. I posted it in hopes that it would help save some frustation and lots of swearing (I did for 10 minutes before coming up...
Here is a link that has a side view of it on my bike. The thread has some helpful installation tips as well. If you want to see more photos of...
I have an '07 and it is very linear. I think the issue was with the earlier 6th Gen bikes. However, I am not sure that it is a real problem or...
I've seen new ones go for $500. The only problem is that it will cost you a good dime to have it painted. Do you have a good painter lined up...
You will find that there is just about nothing in aftermarket accessories for this bike any longer. You should be OK on generic things like turn...
Wow. It is like something right out of a bad dream. You might want to consider finding a good body shop to repair the bodywork as it will be...
Jamie, I thought the '86 VFR750F had a clean bill of health. I've never seen that bike on anybody's list of affected V4s with the top-end oiling...
For me, the center stand is a key feature of the bike. If anything, I'd consider removing the side stand because I never use it!
I too was watching that bike. It looks to be in great shape. Considering that being the case, I doubt you'll have much trouble with it. I too...
I have all 4 of my Interceptors on a 12 month policy with Progressive for $213 per year. All I have is liability and nothing else.
With mileage like that, it is practically new. I had a 5th Gen before I bought my 6th Gen and you will absolutely love it. It is a great bike.
I think it looks great. I bet this will get a lot of people thinking about doing it. Now Photoshop it with white rims.
