  1. All of your hard work and years of dedication are appreciated. This has always been the best motorcycle community on the internet. I met so many great people and have so many great memories that I never would have had if not for you and VFRD. VFRD has directly and indirectly enriched the lives of countless people. Thank you.

  4. Good idea. I'm at 23,000 miles so it's almost time to replace the coolant, brake, and clutch fluid. I've thought about heated grips before. Do you have a recommendation on a set that will work with the throttlemeister? A chain oiler and voltmeter would be nice to have but I think I'll put those off for now. The steibel horn sounds like a good idea. I'll look into that. I'm single so I get to spend my expendable income how I want to. Good thing for some recent OT. A very good point. I plan to give her a very thorough cleaning. So many times where I think about washing her I end up taking her for a ride instead.
  5. Ok, I have torn down the suspension on my bike and already shipped off the forks and rear shock parts to Jamie Daugherty for a custom rebuild. Since I've got the bike apart I'm doing lots of mods. See below: Mods completed prior: Corbin Gunfighter seat Throttlemeister Motovation Frame Sliders Givi V35 side cases on standard Givi PLX-166 side racks K&N air filter Lobstenders Mods I will be doing over the next few weeks: Having Jamie Daugherty rebuld the front forks and rear shock Laser X-treme Exhaust Installing a VFRness with a fuse block Speedohealer Kanadien Ken's Fender Elminator Signal Dynamics Diamond Star Head Light Modulator Signal Dynamics Back Off XP Tail Light Modulator Installing Front and Rear Accessory Power Outlets Installing Luggage Electronix Connectors to my tank bag, tail bag, and V35 side cases Swapping out the Givi PLX-166 standard side racks with the Givi PLXR-166 quick release side racks I would like to install a power commander but I have decided to put that off for a bit due to cost since I want to get a PC-V with autotune. Since I've got the bike all torn down for a few weeks can y'all recommend any other mods I should consider?

    I spotted my first Honda CBR250R on display inside a mall in Malang, Indonesia.

    Thanks for the compliment. I actually thought my lighting here wasnt very good. Its direct and pretty harsh. The shot was partial luck too. My camera can take up to 8 frames a second. I am pretty sure that for this one I had it machine gun mode and was just firing the shutter as fast as she could go as yall came by. The Cherohala really only has good light on the road in the early morning and later afternoon. I scoped out a good place on NC28 just a few miles before you hit Deals Gap that I plan to use next year. It will have nice, diffused light. I think I will really be able to wow you next year.
  8. Nope, I've been tracking this thread the whole time.
  9. I sent MOTY and email this morning. Brian Harris got back to me real quick. They are going to send me a replacement battery. I've gotten nothing but good customer service with MOTY in all my dealings with them. Hopefully I just had a dud battery and the problems go away with the new one.
  10. I am having similar problems with my MOTY battery. It started right up when I first installed it. Then the bike had to sit for a while due to knee surgery. On two different occasions where the bike sat for 2-3 weeks without being started the battery was totally dead and I had to jump start it. The first morning at TMAC the battery was too weak to start the motor but there was some power I had to get a push to roll start it. Then last week I was giving short rides to some of my cousins up and down the street. I had been riding fairly slowly 25-35 mph with frequent stops for about 30 minutes when I shut the bike down. I triedvto start it again 5 minutes later and had to roll start it again. I was excited about this battery, but it's not working well. Far too unreliable. I intend to email MOTY about it next week. I hope they replace it. They seem like a new company and perhaps their quality control needs some work. Even though I got a discount on that limited number VFRD group buy I expect the battery to work for the $130 something I paid for it. If they don't replace it or the replacement has the same problems I'm going with a Shorai. I haven't seen anything but good reviews on those so far.

    TMAC 2011

    TMAC 2011 was fantastic! These pictures are all from Saturday. On Saturday afternoon I camped out on the Cherohala Skyway and took pictures of my fellow VFRD members. The rest are from the Awards Banquet later that evening.
  12. I look forward to hearing about your trip with your Bro.

  13. I believe that the vtec does give a 6th gen more low end grunt. Two valves per cylinder usually gives you more low rpm torque but chokes the engine at high rpm. Its really late where I am but I recall it has something to do with keeping back pressure or static pressure high enough through the exhaust system which is why you don't want to just open an exhaust wide open without making other changes to the engine because it decreases low rpm torque. I'm sure one of our engine experts will be along to explain further or correct me soon. If vtec cuts low rpm torque then why would honda put it on the bike? That's kinda dumb.
  14. Who was on the Harley????

    It's featured because it is definitely a unique VFR picture. A VFR is a heavy bike to stunt with. I can't imagine ever trying to do something like this with my bike. As long as you're in a wide open parking lot with permission of the owner and not on the street I say have at it! You should be allowed to do whatever crazy thing you want with your bike and body as long as you are no danger to others. I've seen some amazing stunt riders before. They are phenomenally skilled riders in their own fashion. :-)
