  3. Hi guys, so i have just finished up my front end swap on my 3rd gen, but the fairings are still bare naked fiberglass, and as this would be the third time that this bike has needed a color change i was hoping some of you guys can give me some ideas & point me in the right direction. 1st color scheme 2nd color scheme how she looks at the moment so while I was busy with my build, i was scratching my head on what i should do with the color scheme for the bike when she was on the road again, & I still have not come up with any good ideas. the one suggestion i kept getting was to spray the whole bike black, & polish the rims up completely, but i found this pic & I am not sure if i like it. I have got a set of nice red Honda decals that I intend on using when I spray the bike. . Please share you ideas & thoughts.
  4. Gents, my OEM luggage is just sitting off the bike since I purchased it about 6 weeks ago. 2002 bike, not sure what year the luggage is, RED, with mounting hardware. I'm gonna list it in the classifieds, but I really have no clue what to ask. One case is an 8/10 and looks great, the other has a few surface blemishes and some light damage commensurate with age of bike. It's worth noting the bike had under 9000 miles on when I bought it, and I took the cases off immediately. I have a bunch of pics I'll post in the classifieds of course, but I know these things were out of bounds expensive when new. What's the going rate these days... Here's just a few basic pics. I just gave them a Optimum No Rinse wash, fresh clay bar treatment, Optimum Opti Clean, then Sonax Perfect finish AIO. Got much of the surface issues taken care of, but one box needs more polishing and it does have some light damage, as I mentioned. Anyway, looking for thoughts on real pricing, I'm not trying to rip anyone off, but would like fair market value of course. Thanks in advance...

  6. Hi All, VFR models are not offered by Honda dealers here in Dubai. I have bought a 2010 VFR1200 from the US, and expecting its arrival within a month. Since I am new to motorcycles, my question might not be valid, but it is a way of learning... Which centerstands (from Honda or other) will fit into VFR1200? Thanks.

  9. Okay yes, I realize that changing gearing does not change the engines output. But, here is your chance to save the VFR from the chopping block. I LOVE the triple in my Tiger 1050 because it has torque. I don't play in the gear box nearly as much, it feels smoother, and I can pull out of the corners with less effort. Yes, it has 20 something pound feet more torque. However, I am curious if changing gearing on the Viffer will allow me to better use the power available, maybe to mimic what I like in the Tiger. My concern with this approach is to get the effect I want I may be running 6K RPM+ on anything above 60 or so MPH, which, while I'm sure the engine can take, I would rather not abuse the bike. What works for you guys? Thanks, as always, for the advice! PRB

  20. A 1350 mile motorcycle adventure from Phoenix to Telluride round trip. A much needed escape from work, stress and city traffic. A chance to ride the famed "Million Dollar Highway" No camera gear, no set ups. Just a long ride in the mountains with a few buddies. After much internal debate on whether to mount Go Pro's on the bike and myself at the last moment I opted not to. Escaping from work as I was saying, ment from Hollywood as a commercial camerman the last 15 years. The last thing I wanted to think about was filming. I just wanted to go for a long ride. This was my first long trip on the VFR that I had just bought from my brother in law Matt. (He's the one riding the silver Concourse in the vid.) Once we hit the open road I regretted that decision and found myself yet again armed with only my iPhone. Luckily, I threw in an Ollo Clip wide angle just in case we stopped long enough for a picture at the occasional landmark. Not sure how the footage would turn out I began shooting as we crossed the Monument Valley in Utah. Keeping the phone in my tank bag I set the pro camera app and clipped on the wide angle. When the road and speed limits permitted I would reach in and grab the phone left handed while keeping a modest death grip on the throttle with the right hand. Surprisingly the footage turned out much smoother than imagined. This was all an experiment with the iPhone 4s while aboard my VFR. So, with no real direction other than trying to capture the fall beauty of the magnificent aspen lined roads of the Rocky Mountains what you see is our weekend get away. Enjoy! Daryl
  21. MY VFR 800 FI want to change a good exhaust , I saw this kind of carbon fiber exhaust, please give me a proposal thanks a lot
  22. Hello once again ! I will try to put this as short as possible. Thank you for your patience =D. So I recently bought a Honda VFR 750 RC36 1990.. The bikes look is modified (I am finishing what PO started)I think the only related to my"problem" in this could be the 190 rear tire. The engine is as far as I know complete stock (except the wings slip on). So here is the thing, the bike starts from the first crank,even if it sits for month, no choke needed.Works like the perfectly healthy bike (i noticed a little knock sound while idleing,but I think it is because of too low idle (it is about 800rpm, even lower when hot) or maybe the clutch bearing (since the sound almost completly go away when I engage the clutch). If you rev it a little in neutral the throttle reaction is amazing and fast..There is a issue with temp. gauge.. The gauge never goes up past 1/4 no matter how long the ride is,and it is obvious that the bike is warm (vent/cooler starts while waiting on the traffic lights,huge amounts of hot air coming from a bike, so I am not suspecting a thermostat) While riding: 2 things I noticed: 1st there are no quiet detonations/backfireing like on "normal bikes with slip on" but while engine braking there pops a LOOOUUUDDD BOOOOMM.. The loudest I heard on the street bike ( and I had a few "poper bikes"). If I accelerate little more aggressively and then let off the throttle the pop would be even louder. 2nd. I was riding it like a granny all the time so I decided to give it a little speed. So I opened the full throttle in 1st, the bike jumped to 10 000rpm and kinda stoped there , shifted it to 2nd opened full throttle bike jumped again very fast to 10 000rpm and just stoped there.. No more power producing from there, it didnt sound like the limiter, it just stand there powerless and couldnt pass that 10 000rpm.. And now the problem: While riding it granny style , low rpms etc for entire gas tank. the best I could get is about 22MPG , or about 60 miles per tank ( while gauge got to red reserve mark i tanked it to full, and got 60 miles to that same gauge position). While looking at the consumption experience from my other bikes and from other vfr owners this is brutal.. And gas is very expensive here.. The bike is probably running rich ,but there are no hard gas smells or something. So as this is my first vfr, does this bikes have some known issues (except R/R) to be related with consumption , or should just classic carb detail clean, new air and fuel filter , carb sync, spark plugs do the trick? Thank you!
