Well well well, I'll be waiting with feverish anticipation. -
Potential Re-Release Of Two Brothers Racing Vfr800 Headers
Chev replied to Rush2112's topic in Exhaust Systems
OK, so I was reading this thread about some sexy header ideas for about 30 pages and the suspense got to killing me. I jumped to the last page, the started clicking backwards and realized that the header group buy turned into a rear-set group buy? Can someone give me the clif note version as to where we are with the header group buy? If I haven't missed the boat, I might be in. Discaimer incoming. -
Enjoying every post Olive. Oh how I yearn for trips of my youth.........

I have not used the powerlet for anything. Not much need to heated gear and the GPS is hardwired. I guess at some point I would feel the need for a powerlet, but as of right now it just collects dust.

I need a voltmeter, and I have a Powerlet port in plain view. Does anyone know of a plug in volt meter for Powerlets? That would be a pretty nifty idea especially for those that have several bikes with Powerlets.

I learned: 1) Oyama thinks I'm faster than I really am. 2) I have a physical abnormality that prevents me from getting my knee down regardless of how far the bike is leaned over. 3) Riding by yourself at TMac is a great way to ride with more people than riding with a group. 4) Once you both get comfortable two up, everything gets better, and faster, and suddenly the big camera comes out and you get some great shots. 5) My memory for names is worse than I ever though. 6) The longer the fuel light flashes, the cheaper the gas at the Gap seems.

My last day of work for the week is done. I'll be there mid morning. I'm making motorcycle noises already! -
"Going down the highway" overheating is only caused by three conditions. One the radiator could be clogged. Two the thermostat could be not opening. The timing could be too far advanced in high RPMs causing pre-detonation and excessive heat. Since I'll assume that you haven't changed the timing recently. And you probably haven't been feeding the radiator wood shavings. I would replace the thermostat. You will have to do some searching, but one of the Civic thermostats from the same era are a direct drop in replacement.

How long have you had this bike? In previous rides, has it always overheated? Is it overheating while you are stuck in traffic, or while you are riding down the road? What tells you it is overheating? Perhaps we can be of some real help if we know as much about the situation as possible.

1KR not for long distance touring? It's not the arrow, it's the indian. My Tour Ride the bike you have. These things are built like tanks. You are never as conditioned to ride as you are after a few weeks in the saddle. Just ride man.
