    Anyone selling/have a Honda vfr800 2003 and newer?

    Hey! I don't have one for sale, but I have one. 2006 VFR800A. What can I say, it's a beautiful bike. I'm 6'2, and it sits kind of tall so if you're short, you may not be able to flat foot. It might feel a little heavy at first but having owned it for 2 years, it feels light as a feather...

    Question concerning turns

    I remember being scared of this too.. way back in the day! Practice, practice, practice. Go to a parking lot and practice. 8 years later, I love coming in hot before the turn, downshifting, slamming on both brakes so my back tire skids a little.. weeeeeeeeee! Slow in, fast out ;)

    Ticket Vs. Court Date

    No. You have to file for an 11b and it's paper work. It's not as easy as the ticket getting thrown out because it's been 11 months. You have to determine yourself if you have a reasonable case for delay of trial. I don't understand why people think it's so easy because really, it's not. You...

    Cracks in the tread of my tires

    What's the DOT number on the tire? Specifically the last 4 digits, that will tell you when that tire was manufactured and if it's recent (within 5 years) then it definitely wasn't taken care of as Brian P mentioned. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tiretech/techpage.jsp?techid=11

    New helmet design: very cool

    Modular helmets exist already so I'm not sure what everyone is freaking out about. Plus this hinge is at the rear unlike present modular ones where it's in the front! They're also looking for DOT and ECE certification so if it gets both those safety designations, I'd definitely get one.

    QEW Toronto bound

    People get scared when they're too close to the car beside them. Their first reaction is to rest their foot on their brake even if they aren't applying it. The guy behind sees brakes lights, he actually brakes and voila. Traffic. I've seen a guy in a lane with no one in front of him.. the...

    Toronto to NYC advice please

    Hey Murphy.. I have the route for you!! I did this trip a few years ago with my YZF-600R and this kind member on another forum plotted the perfect route with no traffic, tolls and excellent scenery with beautiful twisties! It only took me 7 hours (I averaged about 80mph) and gassed up three...

    Thought bike was going to melt!!

    My VFR800 goes up to 104 and the fan kicks on.. drops to about 98 or so and then stops. What's the big deal? That's within spec.. and I'm sure the Honda engineers know a lot more than we do when it comes to designing the bike and why the fan kicks on at that time.

    Hit & Run

    Jane and Rutherford you say? That intersection has 4 cameras pointed in to the middle of the intersection. I don't know why, but it's only that intersection that has 4 cameras. You can see one of the cameras in the video.. it's in the middle.. really high up between the two lights.
