  1. I have a set of shad 35's , bags only, the hardware went with my bike when it was sold and forget to put them on. I think you can buy the hardware set from bike bandit or revzilla I think. I'll both bags in mint condition for $300 plus shipping or best offer.
  2. great condition 2014 VFR manual. $64.95 shipped
  3. I sold my bike so lots to sell. First up is ventura bike back, sells new for $459 , shipped to you for $250
  4. I have the factory muffler I'd sell cheap. I'm not sure what they cost but say 50% off retail plus shipping.
  5. too much oil in crankcase ?
  6. I'll send in a PM , I think links to ebay may be frowned upon.
  7. I have an R&G right side crank cover like new for sale on ebay right now, if you happen to drop on right side that nice bronze cover gets dinged.

  9. yes
  10. Love the window. I might PC another pressure plate so I can change the look monthly LOL I'd like a spinning thing done so I can hypnotize people LOL
  11. And the price tag, ouch
  12. Yes I do love that we have Seb to do those, it really does start conversations.
  13. Look what parked next to me at clubhouse, I felt slightly under dressed. That rear tire is insane.
  14. After my Colorado incident were bike rolled down hill and fell over I decided to not fork out $900 for a new pair since they don't sell individually which is so wrong. I repaired the gouges and took to fast signs to have them vinyl wrapped, they had no exact match to victory red so I opted for sorta matching the alum frame. I wanted a color that was visible for safety reasons or I would have just gone black. There are too many colors to choose from but I found a metallic aluminum that caught me eye. They charged $180 to wrap both. A lot cheaper than paint. And with this color I could sell them to someone with a white vfr as well. i don't use bags often but I think the color works well .
  15. My findings were with bags on a tip over caused minor damage to top and upper cowls because the bags lifted the rear of the bike causing it to nose over. My giant ctx1300 had bag savers that really worked but there is no were on the vfr for those. So unless I'm needing my bags they will not stay on.
  16. problem there is the weight of a shaftie plus drive train loss of shaftie is higher.
  17. I put an air hawk cover on for any rides over 100 miles, under that and I'm fine with stock.
  18. Yes drop the stock muffler, that thing is a brick. Being I weigh about 155 I can out run you folks who weigh 200 pretty easily. Since bikes don't have near the emission crap that cars have there is not alot of HP left to get from say a tune. But if you drop the cat I'm sure you could gain a few HP.
  19. I bought a fluid checker for about $20 , works great. Has zero, 1,2,3/4% I think, new fluid is 0% water and I tested my cars which I change often and my wifes was like 1% , anything over 2% is bad, for grins I tested work vans that never get maint and one was 4% or IOW bad. Bikes I change every year just because it's a bike, my car I track so it gets changed often as well as tech inspection won't let you run with more than 1%. If it's dirty I would suspect a seal is deteriorating.
  20. I've been a Radio "tech" at Rockwell Collins for 28 years, 9 years before that an Avionics Tech in the Marines.
  21. The word "tech" now is given to everyone. I am a tech and get PO by the over use of the word tech. Seriously they use a multi meter and it said 0.06 amps and did not know that was 60ma , geeze.
  22. I just ordered some pirelli angel gt's from Jake Wilson , best price I could find, $276 delivered for both. I just wish I had an installer for cheaper since cycle gear will charge $50 each to install since I bought elsewhere but CG prices where $209 for rear and $159 for front and then add $30 sales tax makes a $122 savings minus the extra $25 each to install at CG still saves me over $70 buying from Jake Wilson. I liked the reviews of the angel gt and the tread pattern is cool and never had dual compound rears so hopefully that will pay off, could have gotten the st's for about $40 less but if the rear last 15-20% longer then it will pay for the diff. My factory dunlops at 3K have about 1/32 before I hit the wear out bar at mid tire or were the normal turning lean is at and kinda squared off from the 2K mile of HOT TX highways to get to the Rockies at 75-85mph, front still looks ok but I want to get my angled valve stems in so I can check pressure without having to contort my air hose in the wheel.
  23. My CTX1300 2014 did this too, kinda helps to not stall it.
  24. I rode in some very wet roads in Colorado recently and never felt a thing , but I never touch front brakes in a twisty . And did a gravel road with no ABS that I could tell. If it works it works very well. I've only felt rear as others when down shifting and braking.
