2022 VFRD Spring Memorial Ride 5/19-5/22
MaxSwell replied to Sweeper's topic in VFRD Spring Memorial Ride (TMAC)
Another vote for safe riding for all. And I'd like to add a request for lots of pictured of the festivities and frivolities so I can enjoy your great times vicariously. -
I never heard of that happening in our club during my membership. And we had some fine TR6's among us. Before the TR8's introduction, TR6 would have been my choice among the two-seater ragtops available at the time.

Although I've never ridden a 6th gen, If you want some giddy-up start with rev's above the VTEC engagement rpm, which, if I recall correctly, is above ~6800 rpms.

And your OEM windscreen will be saving your neck. -
Thanks for the grin. When I was in high school my bedroom window looked out over a three-season porch roof with an oak tree nearby. There was a white squirrel that would cross the roof to take nuts right out of my hand. I still do enjoy watch the cute little critters to this day.

Me Too! I had a 1980 Triumph TR8. So I 've seen the Prince Of Darkness. Our British Car Club's moto was: "But when it runs!"

Good for you Timmy; now I'm even more disappointed I can't make this great party. -
VF500F2 Aka MBD Incubation Period At Least 52 Years
MaxSwell replied to Dutchy's topic in Earlier VFRs
I was struck today, looking at the picture with the tank removed, at how simple that machine is, compared to the complexity of my fifth gens, which are becoming scarier for me to contemplate fixing. Very greatful for the factory service manual and even more grateful for the collective intelligence of this discussion group. I tip my helmet to all who all the contributors. -

MaxSwell replied to Dutchy's topic in Earlier VFRs
Good one. Actually she was angry at me for waking her up. If I could find a helmet to fit her she could come riding with me. But there is an on-going discussion between us over just who's chair that is. I am sorry for the thread highjack. -

VF500F2 Aka MBD Incubation Period At Least 52 Years
MaxSwell replied to Dutchy's topic in Earlier VFRs
We here in the midwest US have these new things spread all over. But many of ours are in farm country. Lots of space for these here in Minnesota, Iowa, North Dakota, places I visit occasionally in my former rides and now in my cage. I'm too old to go on multi-day trips. A tent and camping gear that fits in my hardbags (41L x 2) the tent is too small for my arthritic body to sqeeze into. Local day trips are it from here on. But I still enjoy driving my 2008 Civic manual for trips to the Rocky Mountains. If motel rooms are too expensive (increalingly common) I can sleep in the car. And my three year old dog, Mojo, can come along. -

Welcome to the asylum Dorian. You obviously have great taste in mc's. I've had signs of critter's nests in two of the fifth gens I've purchased. Seems critters have found good taste in airboxes also. (HeHe)

Looks like the old fashion Netherlands windmills have been seriously upgraded. -
The D200S works fabulous for me. Please let me know what you think of it after you've used it for a while.

Looks like a great group to ride with. But only you show great taste in mc'c.

Skids, I'm messaging you with details of two sets of these components.
