Member Contributer Thumbs Posted December 8, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted December 8, 2015 Now that is the best mod I've seen......how come no plated bolts? Seems pricey at first but then I'm guessing it's CNC machined from bar stock, lots of cutting time and then you have to get the temperature/pressure right for the clear section, which I assume is some kind of plastic First thing I'd do is get the bolts anodised to match the bike.....black chrome in my case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEBSPEED Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Black anodized screws would look good with the pearl metallic black. Would love to do a cover for an 8th gen, just need someone to send me one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to do a cover for an 8th gen, just need someone to send me one... Are you serious about this?What kind of turnaround time are we talking about? Customs would have a field day with that when it came back though, they'd price as a new part and use Hondas price, then screw me for taxes, however I'm in California in May and could bring it back in my luggage "my lucky charm pal" There's one on eBay UK for £35 ($50US) in black if you want one to try, it's already scuffed so perfect candidate Regards John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEBSPEED Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 John, shoot me a pm. I've sent these worldwide with no customs issues to date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raoufhakam Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 clear clutch covers looks nice when stopped, but once you turn the engine over and oil splashing on it, just looks bad. however, nothing comes close to the real thing clear clutch covers trying to mimic, Ducati's open Dry Clutches: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marriedman Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 I've never liked the sound of a dry clutch, there was a video posted once of a dry clutch modification to a VFR800 that I always liked though. It started with the bike idling and hearing that distinct rattle. As the camera panned back you saw a guy shaking a tambourine! I thought it was the perfect description. I cannot find the video, so if anyone knows what I am talking about and can find it, post it up please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marriedman Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Ha! Found it. The reason I couldn't find it earlier is because it wasn't a VFR. Could have swore it showed a red 5th gen though: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way I've searched like crazy and no luck finding an exact match. Please someone tell me who did this case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Thumbs Posted May 20, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted May 20, 2017 That's a Thurn cover. http://www.thurn-motorsport.de/html/vfr.html They don't weld the case so no damage to cover colour, I checked with Gerhard before I had mine done about this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saves a little money over powder coating but shipping to Germany would take a while and money. Only up side is keeping original case cover which in our case is sorta special and unique.
