Also installed the gear indicator. Fork seals and oil change is next. Then the front wheel bearings and paint and im ready to ride! So finally was able to put her together, cleaned her up and took her for a spin today. Spring is just around the corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer VARIABLE9 Posted March 18, 2020 Member Contributer Share Posted March 18, 2020 Nice to see activity in the 6th Gen thread, I suspect I’ll have some free time in the garage soon with all the pandemic issues. Maybe I’ll get some maintenance completed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I’ll get some maintenance completed! I didn't have to even wait to have the tire changed. The counter clerk said I was the second person there that day!Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstehman Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Front wheel getting fresh rubber installed. I got spoiled with the rear wheel removal.. the front is a little more time consuming but still not bad. Next time I will raise my headlift one hole so I don't have to loosen the fender to get the wheel out. Also, what kind of drag should I expect with the rear wheel while spinning on the centerstand? I can hear the brake rubbing slightly.. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Knute Posted July 10, 2020 Member Contributer Share Posted July 10, 2020 Turned 90k miles on the dial today. No valve checks, on my 4th stator, 3 sets of CCT, original RR. This machine starts within 1 or 2 revolution, runs smooth, pulls hard and strong. Of the 90k miles, 85k are mine. Bought it in '08 and loved every mile I put on it. Looking forward to hit the 100k mark in a couple of years or so. Enjoy your VFR everyone, it a great dependable bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer boOZZIE Posted July 14, 2020 Member Contributer Share Posted July 14, 2020 Took the big plastic licence plate/mudguard thing off and installed the OE metal bracket and found some plastic plugs to fill in 2 holes in the undertail.
