    I reinstalled the battery from the workbench charger, and took it for a nice fall ride. If not somewhat windy.

    Shoulda stuck with CHINESIUM. Oh no I mean OEM.

    All good, I didn’t take it as personally directed towards me. Just want to move the thread forward versus a continual discussion on levers.

    Well I appreciate the video, but I think I’m good. Read my posts. I get it quality or OEM is recommended. The CHINESIUMs were just to check out shortys on the VFR. I determined I need a longer clip on to effectively place the controls for optimum fingering. Now I will move forward, over time, sourcing some higher quality levers and choosing longer clip ons. FYI I was in Scotland. In a car. 🤔

    I am considering how I can make it work. Helibars or LSL clip ons are what I’m considering. It’s a future project though. I still have the exhaust to mount. I’ve been bogged down parting out my SV. Plus I just spent a long weekend in Austin for the F1. 😁

    I wish I had monetized this thread! Lol Yup, the OEM are fine. I just hate the length. FWIW the adjustment range isn’t any better than a stocker, and due to where the master cylinders are located (close to end of grips due to clip on length) I can’t really move anything around to make the ‘two finger’ part of the shorty OMG THEY'RE CHINESE KNOCK OFFS levers work that great in my hand. But honestly guys they’re fine.

    Thank you!

    No debate. Rotella is for trucks. Chinese levers seem to be fine. And the holy trinity of new owner mods (PAIR, flapper, and snorkel) are just placebo.

    Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

    The VFR is still waiting for me to install the Arrow exhaust. I’ve been trying to ride whenever possible, both for fun and for utility. Besides that I’ve been working on replacing a clutch unit. See photo below. 🤣 I really appreciate the ASV’s are ‘made in the USA’ but they are too Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare looking for me.

    Such a divisive issue.
  17. VARIABLE9
    Pics or it didn’t happen. You’re in NJ so I’m especially skeptical.

    I rode 100mi round trip for some errands today. Mostly slab. Still felt good though. Gave me a chance to put my new MZS levers through their paces and they seemed to work like levers.

    Welcome aboard!

    I lost that lovin feelin for my last motorcycle. Didn't ride it for two years. Then I bought my VFR and I try to ride every chance I get. Like today.
  21. VARIABLE9
    Very cool!

    I have a 2007 and my mirrors fold up. Looking at the fiche it fits 2002-2009, and seems to be the same as I have. Do you (or I?) have non OEM mirrors fitted? e.g. Honda MIRROR, R. BACK Part # 88110-MCW-D01
  23. VARIABLE9
    Pretty.
  24. VARIABLE9
    Old school!

    That’s good it’s straight. I broke a case via similar issue (not masterlink, but loose chain+suspension) on my YZ250 20+ years ago. JB weld is still holding a piece of the crankcase together.
