I just bought the AGV K6S this spring in L. I have a bit of a round head shape, and despite really wanting the Shoei RF-1400 to work, I tried one on in the store and it just wasn't going to be possible - the top was too narrow and pressed in the sides of my head. The AGV was a little bit rounder and fit like a glove! My cheek pads were comfortable but snug when new and are loosening up over time as I wear the helmet more. It's now been about a month of nearly daily wear, and I don't notice them anymore. Is it possible to put different size cheek pads in? On the AGV website it has sizes but doesn't indicate whether changing the pad size is possible.

I tried using them to order the OEM 2000-2001 mirrors (88120-MBG-D01 & 88110-MBG-D01) from IMPEX, and they didn't state they were out of production and impossible to order until the next day after I'd already placed the order and paid. They immediately offered a cancellation & refund on the whole order, though, so they made it right. I just think their website/inventory system is a little antiquated.

Yes, I've been riding around town and putting the battery on the charger between rides. After a week of that, it appears I can get around 10-15 miles out of a full battery. It's just enough riding to make me impatient for the SH847 to finally ship!

I actually went the other way. Previous owner had clear blinker lenses with switchback LEDs, but he gave me the OEM yellows in a goodie bag, so I reinstalled them. I like the look of them, too! Problem is, I cannot get the rubber to stay covering the mount no matter what I do. It's like it shrunk over the years, and I think that part is out of production 🙁 Commuter + weekends. My commute is only a mile or two, and that's not nearly enough riding 😁

Hello! I'd like to introduce myself and my new (to me) 21,000 mile 1999 VFR! After riding vintage motorcycles for a while (1970 CB450K3 and 1969 CL350K1), I decided it was time to get a commuter that would be a little faster, more reliable, and most importantly.... FUEL INJECTED! After a lot of research and soul searching, I decided the VFR should fit my needs nicely. It's a substantial bump in HP, with a more comfortable riding position than a supersport, and it has that unique powerplant - apparently I have a thing for unusual valvetrains. Once I decided on a 5th gen VFR (it had to be fuel injected and it had to have that gear driven valvetrain), I waited until a clean one popped up for sale near me and pounced on it! A 1999 VFR in very nice condition, with all the OEM parts (muffler, signals, passenger pegs/grab handles) included, and just one problem - it doesn't charge the battery. Upon taking off the fairings, the reason why became quite obvious: Luckily, the stator and wiring seem to be good. No internal shorts when tested, 20V AC at idle and just over 50V when revved, even across all three legs. I just had to order a SH847 from Eastern Beaver with wiring kit and I should be ready in time for the season! So while I wait for that to ship, I've been cleaning, restoring it to OEM condition as best I can, and taking quick jaunts around town in an attempt to satiate my impatience. Thanks for the help - this forum was a great resource in diagnosing my charging issue and determining a course of action - and I hope to stick around!
