Hi Everybody! Just wanted to say Hello and ask a couple questions. Just bought a 2015 VFR800FD in white with the side bags and power outlet. The bike is still in the shop until Wednesday so I've been reading way too much about it until I get my hands on it. For anyone looking in the future (and because I was looking for this info when shopping) I paid 8999 for the bike (plus 380 freight, 787 dealer prep, 80 doc, 160 dmv, 950 tax) and for the 2 side bags, keys, and power outlet another 960 with tax included They also sold me on an extended warranty (5yrs for 300) Greater LA area in California. I am planning on purchasing a few accessories right away and was looking for some opinions. T-Rex frame slider T-Rex Axle slider GSG swingarm slider R&G Exhaust protector Innovv k1 front/rear dashcam Any recommendations for something else over what I listed above? These seem like the best option based on the research I've done. I also want to get a Powerbronze rear wheel hugger and cruise control but I might hold off on that for a little while. I had Techspec tank pads on my last bike, are there any better options I should take a look at? Best phone and GPS mount options? And lastly, any good options for fog/accessory lights that mount discretely? Thanks for reading! Edit: I forgot to add, what is supposed to come with the bike? I got a rear cowling with 2 little covers, tool kit, and a little owners manual booklet.

Hi all, just wondering if anyone has fitted any of these yet, or equivelants . the only frame sliders i found from R&G are the ones where you have to cut/drill the fairing, not something i want to do which is why im considering the T-Rex equivelant from ebay, a little on the expensive side after customes fees to have it shipped to france but sorta looks okay and seems to bolt to the frame and not the motor, i could be mistaken. The RDmoto brand i have never heard of, so im not sure if they're any good,they seem discreet n small, prehaps too small . ( weird, on ebay they show them as no cut ones, but on thier site they say cutting is needed ) The plugs from R&G seem okay too, can anyone see any problems with hiding the 4 holes with the corrasponding plugs ? apart from the fact they are pricey for what they are ....... i just ordered the honda hugger from Webike in japan, was 30€ cheaper than my honda dealer who said id have to wait 4 weeks and 45€ cheaper than ebay, now just to see if its the real deal and if the rather over zelous french customs dudes are going to request i pay fees or not, at worst it'll be a fake part and ill have to pay 40€import duties . anyways ...... thanks for your views,opinions, and prehaps first hand experience . feel free to add any other ideas relating to protecting our stunning little VFR's .
