Also, if one wanted the decals applied is there a source for the OG "VFR" and "Interceptor" decals?
-
Appears less expensive than having the old ones painted, especially if they can somehow recreate the decals faithfully. I'd like to know if anyone has bought a set and the quality/fit.

Ah, thank you.

following this link the product doesn't appear to have any markings on it-no "VFR" just plain black plastic. Not the one shown in photos in posts below.

5th Gen. 98' VFR800 w/ stock OEM seat.. painful to ride.

Sargent seats are a good alternative. I tried the Corbin and it was incredibly uncomfortable. The Sargent is very comfortable and supportive and, along with the tank pads keeps me from suffering when braking hard. This video was taken for the audio but you can see the seat as well. And the tank pads. 20230708_083305.mp4 -
I have the same - love it. Good luck keeping that rubber thing around the top of the screen!

I can't imagine how difficult this must be for you. So many memories of both bike and owner... Those wheels... Wish I were closer to California-I'd buy it. -
Is that Ben Bostrom??

First impression after frontend swap

Nice work. Not sure I've ever heard of anyone replacing the "coils". Why would one replace them? Do they wear out over time? -
98 VFR800 Has a pressurised fuel tank
interceptor69 replied to Drtmonster's topic in Fifth Generation VFR's
I recently had the tank off doing a spark plug change and when replacing the tank clamped the metal hose holder too tightly over the hose and noticed on the next ride a strong vacuum when trying to open the gas cap. Loosened the clamp thingy and no problems. The vacuum was so strong it was difficult to lift the gas cap. -
I know Barber Motorsports Park Museum has quite a few. In Leeds, Alabama, just east of Birmingham. Incredible selection of motorcycles (and some racing cars). Worth a visit.

There's a parking light bulb in there?

Welcome-it's a beauty! Love the silver.

Thank you for the replies. That's what I thought but wanted to be sure.

Probably a dumb question but just changed the coolant and noticed after filling, idling, burping, cooling off and rechecking the level is just at the level at the top of the radiator-not up near the top of the cap. How "full" should the coolant be when topped off?
