Member Contributer Hingley Posted February 13, 2023 Member Contributer Share Posted February 13, 2023 Has anyone had much luck lately finding a good quality PAIR Block off kit for the 1999 VFR800 Around here all I can find are kits for the CBR600 etc, nothing listed for the VFR At the very least does anyone know if other Honda models PAIR kits fit the VFR800's ?

Member Contributer Bren Posted February 13, 2023 Member Contributer Share Posted February 13, 2023 Not all the way over in Canada but there is one in the UK and also in Europe. Stateside guys will know. Not much help I know 🧐 As an aside, I just fitted mine over winter, starter valve sync is coming. Eager to see the difference.

Member Contributer Skids Posted February 13, 2023 Member Contributer Share Posted February 13, 2023 I got mine for my 01 from a UK ebay seller. Excellent quality. Honda VFR800Fi, VFR800VTEC, Crossrunner PAIR's removal Kit | eBay Mello Dude on here makes them too. I bought a set years ago for my 08 and they were excellent too. 21 minutes ago, Bren said: As an aside, I just fitted mine over winter, starter valve sync is coming. Eager to see the difference.

Member Contributer adkfinn Posted February 15, 2023 Member Contributer Share Posted February 15, 2023 another vote for @mello dude's block-off plates. and like Mohawk said - no more popping and banging, completely solved the issue on my bike with an aftermarket exhaust.

Member Contributer mello dude Posted February 15, 2023 Member Contributer Share Posted February 15, 2023 Hey all.....I'm out of stock, and the leftovers are scrapish......I have been getting onesie inquiries, but really I would need to make another batch, but that is a chunk of bucks for me to justify one sale... --- If 5 guys would speak up for another batch, then I could go for it. Another wedgie.....US only, postage for Canada has gone whacko...(sry) Beers to all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer Captain 80s Posted May 11, 2023 Member Contributer Share Posted May 11, 2023 Just got mine. They look great. And I don't even own that model!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmoer Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 Potentially dumb question but why not pull the hose and put a vacuum cap on the port? I get that the plate is a bit cleaner, but I can't think of a mechanical downside to just capping it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Captain 80s Posted May 13, 2023 Member Contributer Share Posted May 13, 2023 There's A LOT of things that VFR owners do that don't have a mechanical advantage and are just cooler. And as you said, "cleaner". If it ain't doing shit anymore, it doesn't need to be bolted to my bike and potentially in my way in the future. Less clutter and (a little) weight too.

Going to be doing my thermostat soon; while I have the TBs off I'm replacing the coolant and vacuum hoses, deleting all the California emissions crap, and the PAIR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The caps were dry rotting and cracked when I got the bike back in 2020, so...clearly I needed metal plates all along? 🫣 Vacuum caps work, and someone else has put a marble inside the hose. They all work, this will just be a little cleaner looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
