  1. Dear lord Leon!!! Every time I come back to this site, I see you add to the stable!!! I am pleased to see that you added another VFR (and WITH NACA ducts to boot!!) and I must say that that MV Augusta is beautiful. Well done little grasshopper!! 🙂 I trust everyone is doing well. Take care my friend. Christian I have modified my stable a bit too but nothing like yours....
  2. Do Shoeis come with a bottle of Talisker now?!? Cause if they are, I'M GETTING A SHOEI!!!! 😉
  3. Testing? For what??... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. It’s like Christmas! Unwrapping great presents!!!! Awesome!!!! C Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. Hahahahhaa. Aaaaah! All makes sense now. THAT would explain why I like it so much.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. Beautiful pictures as always! I also really like the farm house in one of the previous pics above. Very “pittoresque”. And peaceful. That reminds me, I need a new battery for the VFR. My trickle charger does not even turn on when i plug it in. Must be past beyond toast... sigh. :-) it also needs regular tlc. As soon as the snow clears... C Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. Yes but... red IS faster. We all know that. And congrats on the new bike. Beautiful! C Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. No you don’t! You guys are magicians with space out there!!! :-) I’m sure you can squeeze one more bike in there if you tried. C Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. . Sorry about the mishap Randy. Sooooo... are you riding this summer then?? Are you getting another, better surgeon?? Just wondering... C Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. 185?!? Holy smokes!!!!! I’d say she and the rider are doing just fine... C Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. Good god! That poor thing was never ridden!!! If anything, it is giving you low voltage as a response to a lack of love... I am of the opinion, after I have thought about it most if the day, that completing The Drill would give you a more comprehensive view of the entire charging system. Since you owe other VFRs, you must be familiar with The Drill... Btw, i do like your stable. All theee bike that we see (and I suspect the ones we don’t...) are groovy...

  12. Congratulations on the purchase!! Those are great bikes!! I have a 2003 with almost exactly the same set up. What is the mileage of yours? I would replace the stator and R/R if I were you right off the bat. Maybe inspect the old one and keep as spares for emergencies only and only short term if they are still looking and test ok. Charging is an issue on those. While at it, maybe inspect all grounds, fuses and connectors. Some tend to melt... Good luck and keep us informed of what you find. C Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. Hahahahaha. Yes but... as cunning as I might be, I cannot be as good as you. Wish we could meet more often btw ... C Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. HAHAHAHAHA!!!!! You sweet talker, you!!!! You talked him into it, didn’t you!!! Glad it worked out. C Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. Way to go Timmmy!!! Love your idea to set one up as sport and the other as touring bikes. Enjoy the rides! C Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. This last picture is pretty fantastic! I love it with the scenery and all the colors!!! C Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. What a great looking bike!!!! Timeless!!! C Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. Try and put a Renault shifter and see if it is any better...... fingers crossed for you.... C Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. GP2 shifter?!?!? Hahhahahaha. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. I like the way you think.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Very, very nice bike!!! Love the look of the engine. And the different style. How do they ride?!?!? How is that engine? Suspension?? I bet it turns heads everywhere you go!! C Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. Interesting... That may be the push I need to get an electric bike then after I run that 6th gen of mine into the ground. Will take a while tho... Especially now that I have an older V-Strom to play with too. C
  23. Looks great! And this thread is quite interesting. Keep at it, this is very instructive for mechanical idiots like me. BTW, given that VFRs are somewhat ... electrically challenged, do you intend on soldering any of those wirings instead os using those plugs which sometimes create heat and eventually melt? I know yours is a better 6th gen than my '03, but I'm just saying... Best of luck! C
