Does anyone have a feels for how common it is for the low beam to need replacement? My 2010 has 48K and the bulb just went out.

yes, new leftover with zero miles.

No such problems. I agree this should not have happened. Forgot to add....I bought the bike in 2012, so it lasted only 4 years!!

No such problems. I agree this should not have happened.

Well, the second dealer dicked around with it until the night before I needed it, but finally got it fixed. Electrical relay for the fuel pump. $8 part and 4 hours to diagnose it! On the trip home the low beam headlight went out (at night!). Fuckin thing is just falling apart!

I've found a filter change is necessary for me every 12-15 K.

Took it to another dealer this AM... hope to know more soon. Urged them to give it priority so I can go to Texas!

Well, the dealer (Cupis Motor Mall in Pekin, IL) kept it a week. Never bothered to call me. I called 4 times and always got the excuse that they were busy. Today they told me to just pick up the bike! The service manager is leaving to have surgery and they can't get to it. Here I am a week away from my big trip to Austin for MotoGP, already have the tickets and reservations etc and can't even get someone to tell me what is wrong with the bike!

Just the engine died. Hopefully I'll be able to let everyone know what it is soon. So true. Real nice to know there are good people out there ready to help a fellow rider. I will look for ways to do likewise.

Ride all year and have a lithium ion battery, so I don't think that is the issue. Broke down on the side of the road going home last night and she would not start at all. So, no opportunity to check any of your ideas. Nice guy on a Harley stopped, went and got his trailer and hauled me in to the dealer! Hope to know more soon.

2010 w/46k, DAM exhaust, no other mods. Cruising along at about 30MPH yesterday and the bike died. Hit the starter and she fired right up again. Going to work today--65MPH same thing, except it would not start right back up. Pulled to the side and she started. Both times this happened shortly after I started riding. Both times I rode another 15 min or so without issue. Any ideas where to start looking??? Thanks!

Talking bout the new v4. Thanks for the comments and keep them coming!

Anyone have one, ridden one? I've only sat on one and it appears a bit more cramped in the legs for me. I really like that motor and the sound! Any real world comparison with the 2010 VFR would be appreciated.

I'm in! just got my tickets. I went in 2013 and 2014. Missed last year. Got camping reservations at Bastrop St. Park ($12 per night!). They want over $200 to tent camp at the track, which is insane! Anyone else camping at Bastrop?
