    SOW -- Seriously - -get a 500 and really learn how to ride. If you have dropped 2 bikes - 26 times in the last 2 or 3 years, its learn to ride or a future hospital visit. OR flat out give it up.

    That said, I think your one stupid mofo.

    Birdseed, elf800, SOW.....

    I was close to the ignore option. But you gotta admit, if you step back and accept the troll possibility, he/she possibility, the slaughtering of the English language, blantant offense to the sanctitiy of the evolution of thumbs and frontal cortex, there's a sick twisted entertainment value to this idiocracy. Kinda like picking scabs. And I know I'm not the only one, we're on page 3 of this thread so far.

    Kinda funny watching people get all upset over this trivial shit, it means nothing, it is only words and at the end of the day nobody really cares but at least SOW sort of keeps me amused :crazy:

    Try this fill up the vfr tank to full then inflate tires to 42Front and 46 rear and go make some slow speed turns-report :snowman: use 91 gas, and 10-50w oil. and take off centerstand, put stock exhaust back on. report to me afterwards. Go on some slow turns with big hills, take of your sliders. See what happens. send pics of results.

    I often do slow speed turns, never dropped the bike. I always fill my tank to full, never dropped the bike. I have 36/42 psi tire pressure and 10W-40 engine oil as recommended. Centre stand is on, stock exhaust except the muffler (Yoshi RS3). Sliders I do not have, don't need any. Can't buy lower than 95 octane where I live. Still - never dropped my bike last 20 years...
    There is nothing wrong with your bike, the problem is the one sitting on the bike ;) Why not try the training wheels Y2Kviffer offered you, from his son's bicycle ;)

    At Stop signs with no traffic around, I stop/balance my bike and go again while never removing my feet from the pegs; getting pretty good at that

    I have been practicing slow turning and have got a lot better, my left wrist gets tired then I can't control the clutch level as well, I think that's why I drop it. It was a slow drop and I almost held it up-nothing at all happened to the bike ,it was close to a dead stop and it stalled dragging me down. I think the hydro clutch is not as easy to tell when it grabs. Oh well the vfr is one tough bike and the frame is extra strong-to bad its so hard to lighten it up a bit-I have run out options that I would do. I don't want to change it that much:bull_head:

    You have the option to sell your VFR to someone that can actually handle it. It is apparently to much Motorcycle for you.

    Agree, you should sell the VFR and buy a ride that's not so heavy, and with an upright sitting position.

    I had a evo stand up scooter that did 40mph and they are very dangerous-I broke my collar Bone on that thing-it was cool as hell, but the roads suk for those things-going down a hill forget it. I am good at riding the vfr now so what if I drop it-it has sliders:chaingun::chaingun::chaingun:
