  1. Sold my VFR1200 and I have a 1st generation Huntingguns RamMount for sale. (LINKY) This looks WAY better than the stem mount offered by RAM. Only 2 minor imperfections. 1: small chip in RAM ball. It's been like this since the day I got it... Also something you do don't see when a RAM arm (not included) is attached. 2: small mar on the internal washer. This happened when removing from my bike... After 20k miles, it was seated very well. Attached are current pictures and pictures of it installed on my VFR1200. $40 shipped within USA.

  2. Yes. My VFR1200 felt like it would bog until about 5k RPMS at which point it would really get up and go. It wasn't always consistent but once I did a valve adjustment, the issue went away.
  3. I bought a Z125 and haven't touched my VFR since... stupid mini bike is just too much fun to ride.
  4. Does it do this only in 1st and 2nd gear? If so, it's Honda's 'Poor man traction control'. To fix that, you will either need a Bazzaz or ECU flash. If you feel this in all gears, look into a valve adjustment. Mine did this and a valve adjustment fixed her right up.
  5. If I were to buy another 2010, Guhl flash would be the first thing I would do.
  6. Mine dropped only because it allowed me to be more ham fisted with the throttle.
  7. I was going to send mine off to LAAM seats... but then I bought a mini bike and haven't touched Big Red all summer. About 3/4 way down page 3 are some pictures on a 7th Gen. https://www.vfrdiscussion.com/index.php?/forums/topic/71427-seat-recommendation/&do=findComment&comment=924351
  8. ^^ This. Best money I spent on my 2010.
  9. If you meant battery cables, then that is probably your culprit. Blown fuse, burnt wires, fried ECU, list goes on. Or since it was put away for the winter, mice/squires/angry wife. Either way, it's probably electrical.
  10. How do you like that rear fender? Does it seem to do the job without too much buzz/rattle?
  11. Trying to figure out how I can make the Spring Ride work for me this year. Coming from Minnesota, I will likely trailer the bike most of the way so I'm not completely burnt out by the time I get down there. Are you starting and ending at the Microtel?
  12. Which set above? The one's HS posted from Wally World or the one you posted from Motion Pro?
  13. Have fun! They are quite addicting. My 'track bike' has paid for itself.
  14. My 1200 has done the same thing a few times (minus the MIL light). It seems like the bike easily floods on a cold start. If I thumb the starter and wack the throttle, the bike will stall and be a bitch to start. I've also had that happen when I fired up the bike (warmish) reved the motor to show off my Damn exhaust and shut it down for the night. Next morning she did not want to start. I now, start it up and let it idle a couple minutes (while I gear up) before I even touch the gas. When I arrive at my destination, I just shut-er-down with no shenanigans. Haven't had an issue since I started doing that (actually about the same time I had the Guhl flash as well... not sure the two are related tho).
  15. Is there anymore details on this? Is there a 2018 TMAC thread I should be looking for?
