Member Contributer Rush2112 Posted July 27, 2014 Author Member Contributer Share Posted July 27, 2014 Where is this at currently? Numbers wise?Depends... 15 are officially in... others are in under certain circumstances. .. I haven't added those to the list. Too many variables... I apologize, I can't keep up with every post. If you want to be added to the list please state clearly that you are in and I will add your name to the list in post #1. If you've been following the string you know what we are working on. Either you're in or you're out... we're trying to put together a system that will work under most circumstances on VFR800s. If you say your in then add a conditional "if" I'll wait to add you to the list. The request and specs have been sent to the fabricator. If you want in and your handle isn't on the list in post#1 then speak up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer vfrcapn Posted July 27, 2014 Member Contributer Share Posted July 27, 2014 I'm in for a full system that retains the OEM outlet & c-stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer MadScientist Posted July 27, 2014 Member Contributer Share Posted July 27, 2014 Has any manufacturer ever offered a header system with performance oriented primary diameter and the correct cylinder pairing in a mass marketed solution with a stock outlet position(as opposed to one-off custom fabs)? Center stand compatibility would be nice if I wanted to put it on for a long trip, but definitely not a deal breaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Duc2V4 Posted July 27, 2014 Member Contributer Share Posted July 27, 2014 After looking at the VFR400 headers some more, why don't we ask for a left exit kit for the 5 Gen?! +100 I'd be willing to start a new interest list just for this. 1. vfrcapn 2. Duc2V4 Probably should put my name on their too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiff Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Put me on the list for headers and mid pipe, I will go the CandyRed direction and mod it to work with my 05 slip ons. Oh, did we ever hear back from Erion and co.? I know you said they were going to ask around as well. Just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voided76 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Nope... We didn't hear from Erion. I sent them an email a while back too. no response. I sent two brothers an email and called them and they blew me off. I even sent something to Delkevic, and no response. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CandyRedRC46 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Delkevic? Like they care. They've been making a killing on rebadged factory headers for years now lol. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sent two brothers an email and called them and they blew me off. I even sent something to Delkevic, and no response. lol Incorrect. This thread is in response to TBR contact (see post #1) and the discussion has moved a new direction. I spoke with Erion last Friday... he called me in response to an email request. See previous post regarding his response. Put me on the list for headers and mid pipe, I will go the CandyRed direction and mod it to work with my 05 slip ons. Oh, did we ever hear back from Erion and co.? I know you said they were going to ask around as well. Just curious. You are on the list already in post #1. Erion is checking with Akrapovic and Yoshimura... I emailed him yesterday as a follow-up. It has been a little longer than week since first contact and discussion on what we are looking for... I hope to hear back early this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiff Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Yeah I knew Erion was checking with Akra and Yosh, sorry it was late last night I should have been more specific, I was asking in regards to the follow up from them.

Veefer800Canuck Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 I'm interested, depending on price. My stock jet-hot coated headers took a turn for the worse last year either on the way to, or back from, T-Mac. Must have hit some calcium or something applied to the roads as they are corroding quite a bit and it's like a localized staining or spray pattern which is now rusting. I could get them stripped and recoated, but....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L8Apex Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Please go ahead and add me to the list as well. I'd just like the header if possible, if not that's okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voided76 Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 While you're at it, look up the group buy on the Dimsport race module/harness. it WILL make a world of difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voided76 Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 "Voided, did you have contact info and/or want to make an introduction?Cheers!" So I suppose it's overdue. :) I'm a 5 year rider out of a little town called Bucyrus, Ohio. first bike was a Suzuki GSX650F on a salvage title. 1200 bucks auctioned. Busted steering stop and a bent fork totalled the bike. I had no idea about it, bought it sight unseen, no key, no mileage verification. noticed it still had nipples on the tires upon recieving it ( :D ) So I pulled the ignition, had a key specifically cut, and when I turned the key on it, it had 000061 miles. I wanted to pee my pants! so I got the forks for 400 bucks off a 1500 mile bike a company cut into a dual-front tire trike, sourced a front fender, got the steering stop welded up, got the title amended as rebuilt, with proper mileage stated, and rode a brand new bike for 2500 bucks all stories told after some paintwork. 22,000 miles later, I sold her for 2500 bucks (hah!) I miss her. I really do! but I now have an 07 VFR, bought with 5k on the clock. Wound up high-siding in san antonio in an oil slick. NOT FUN. no REAL damage besides the usual broken lever, broken shifter arm, cracked rearset, and a bad case of the uglies, so I visually rebuilt the bike. Now has 22 on the clocks. :D working on ... basically, a CandyRedRC46 engine build, and the header is the hardest part. rapidbike's here, the airbox mods are all here, pipercross is here, smog crap is history, evap is history, center stand, history, ^_^ custom R1 slipons, -1 front, and some crossed fingers when it comes to dyno time when this header pans out. haha. That was mid-rebuild, when I was taking some required-for-navy advanced rider courses. hadn't gotten a proper set of mirrors, besides some bar-end garbage I ran for about a month or two, and hadn't sanded down and repainted the R1 can yet either. but there you have it. ^_^ paint, mirrors, ect. :) also, got the cans painted.

Member Contributer Rush2112 Posted July 29, 2014 Author Member Contributer Share Posted July 29, 2014 Nice looking bike! I love the color scheme...

Abcdef Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Voided, is that a factory paint job or did you do that yourself? Because if you did it yourself I would love to know where to get the stripes from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klrtovfr Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Voided, is that a factory paint job or did you do that yourself? Because if you did it yourself I would love to know where to get the stripes from looks like ebay chinese plastic. If you look at the gas tank, its a plastic cover.

Voided76 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Yep. and actually, it's www.aliexpress.com plastic. That way you can get demo pictures to your email, and verification that the parts are in fact like OEM, instead of that glued-on mount awful fitment bullshit just so NO to "compression molded" fairing kits. INJECTION MOLDED is the only way the stuff doesn't wind up looking like hot garbage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
