  1. FWIW they already know the layout of the exhaust. They've had them in their shop before to make the slip on I use. They just don't currently have one to make measurements and a jig from. They didn't. But I wouldn't expect it to be over $600. But that's just my guessing. Doesn't hurt to check them out to see what deal they'd cut you.
  2. Hey guys. So potential lead on a full system for 8th gens and any models they fit over to. Coffman has started doing full systems starting with a Grom. I've contacted them and they said they'd be happy to work on one. I offered to mail mine in but they need the bike on site as well. The exhaust pipes would be mandrel bent and made of stainless steel. They're located in Ukiah California. I told. Them. I'd get the I formation out there if anyone wanted to loan their bike for a bit. This would get us something without the garbage collector the Delkelvic has.
  3. Coffman FTW. With Baffle Without Baffle
  4. First picture I took at work. Second and third at Cherohala Skyway. All others at the Tail of the Dragon.
  5. Seconding the $5 hardware store brackets. I even opted to keep the reflectors on. Can't even tell that it isn't an overpriced $100 kit.
  6. You can always just throw the stocker back on when it is time. That's what everyone else does. New information as well. Also photos of it fitted to a Crossrunner and as pointed out by someone over on VFRW the second and third pics are of the VFR from the wheels and crankcase color. Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk
  7. Well hell. Now I am a little concerned. My brand new eighth gen (2015) that I just rolled to 600 miles has a UHF buzz. I wonder if that is the cause then.
  8. Hello, I know there was some information from a couple months back about Delkevic having a full exhaust for our bikes. As of the date still no information on their site. I got in contact with them and apparently they do have them in stock, just not listed as they're waiting for their graphics staffer to make the page.
  9. I absolutely love the white. It was a huge disappointment. But atleast it was at a dead stand still and I laid it down how I wanted to. It is nice here. I routinely hit up Cherohala Skyway and the Dragon because I'm just so close. Atleast I did manage to avoid what almost happened the day I pick her up on my way back home from the dealership. I'm really thinking about going with the clear clutch cover if I can find that the OEM gold paint cant be matched perfectly. And I may check it out. Just depends on if I can get off from work or not. Thank you! And yes she is. If I'm being honest the reason I've wound up with so many is because the wife would never let me pull the trigger on my dream bike (read: VFR). She out of the picture now so here I am. Probably will clear out the rest of the stable while I'm at it too.
  10. I've got a question on these. I'm looking at the coffman. But I have a deluxe model with the centerstand. Do you guys run into any issues with not having the rubber bushing the centerstand rest against when up?
  11. Not my video but based off of looks alone I am going with the Coffman. It is what the bike should have had stock as far as the looks go.
  12. From the owners manual for break-in. Based in this no issue with what you're riding on as long as you vary the RPM ad don't dump the clutch.
  13. Hey there everyone, Finally a VFR owner after lusting for one for many years. Been riding for 7 years. Been through a Nighthawk 250, Ninja 500, Z750s, Nighthawk 650(still own), Shadow Spirit 1100(still own), Ninja 650, FZ-07(still own), (another)Z750S, and now my VFR800. Picked up my new shiny white 2015 VFR800 Deluxe with 0 miles on the odometer on a whim yesterday. And dropped it within 48 hours of having it. Ouch. Was making a u turn because the driveway was blocked and my boot slipped out from under me at the stop sign on some sand. It was a controlled fall at a stand still. Was able to keep her at about a 30 degree angle to the ground but there was no way I was pulling her back up. Gently laid her on the side with only minimal scratches on the stock exhaust cover(being replaced anyway), mirror, brake lever, and the ribs that are on the side of the clutch cover that you barely notice(all the more reason to justify SebSpeed's clear clutch cover mod. Absolutely zero damage to any plastics which was my only real concern. Didn't really know it came from factory at the whopping highest seat height of 31.8". After lowering it to the more sane for my height 31", even barefoot(sitting in the driveway. ATGATT and all that) I feel like had I lowered it sooner I would have never dropped her. A little disappointed with how limited with aftermarket is and the lack of even a full exhaust system, but I'm happy to have a version of my dream bike.
