how did you form the abs to the right shape? bike looks great love the paint job, new take on a classic.

that wouldn't run very well, you know the carbs and oil pump kind of isn't designed for quite that angle....

ps3, no ring of death. and i feel the controller is much more comfy.

should be pretty easy, not a task to take on your own. Should invite at least a few people over to help (by watching with a beer in hand) in case something were to happen.

advantages

-discharge less over time

-handle heat, cold, and vibrations better

-can't leak

-and best of all, the're blue!!!

I've got a gel in my VFR awesome, and a two year warranty.

Butterfinger!!

street legal?

I'll ask justin at work....

can't be...it's not a apple

^ as long as they work...

Ehh the pipe is a little big don't ya think? Other than that looks like you do some awesome work, and the bike will turn out great!

What kind of cranking amps do these things put out? I just don't see these starting my VFR..i can see using them on a supermoto, dual sport or something like that but for any sport bike or cruiser i see it kind of hard that they would actually start them, especially more than once. My dual sport used the kind of batteries that battery back ups, and emergency lights use, and it was good for about 10 mins. if the bike wasn't running, and thats just with a 35w head light and a led tail.

If you get it the first thing you NEED to do is rejet it and put a pipe on it. These bikes are amazing but choke them selves to death to meet emissions. Yamaha sells a AIS removal kit, for $50, well worth the performance increase.Look for lack of attention to chain/sprocket adjustment, noises due to lack of greasing bearings, axles, and suspension pieces, all easy fixes but should help beat down price.

i have one new in box......will it play music wirelessly?

It has a built in fm radio, and you can stream music from bluetooth devices, so yes. And you can control the music depending on the source, like my Tour.

I have one!! Amazing units!! very impressed with how well it works with my Blackberry tour. Use it mostly for music from my phone and to answer phone calls if needed. Battery life is at least 9 hours with music playing, only used it till dead once. Can't say for the bike to bike capabilities personally, though i have talked with many other users that have, and are impressed with the rang for a bluetooth unit.

me and ponyjr making out...im the terminator baby

dude...wtf!!

Bike now looks different. MUST update sig pic (while still including the wife).

You do not have to have a bike inspected to have the title changed over. If anyone at the BMV tells you that, them them to call the central office to set them straight. You shouldn't make a 2 stroke street legal but you "can". nothing on the title indicates that it is 2 or 4 stroke for them to know. It is how ever harder to do. Finding a lighting coil that puts out enough wattage to power everything is the hardest. Best bet is to get a flywheel and stator off a wr 2 stroke, pretty much bolt up and plug in.

also the power of a 2 stoke is not well tamed on the street and would be more likely to draw attention. You would also have to keep a bottle of premix on you so you can fill up.

When i made my yz426f street legal i was disappointed with the lack of ride-ability, because of limited top speed (even with a 16/40 gearing, stock was 14/49) and the bikes don't like consistant speeds.

Hedrick rad. went out about a year ago if i remember right.

That 600 is piss slow feeling compared to your Max Nor are the brakes that much better, If stoping power is an issue, up grading the calipers (r1's bolt up fairly easy), master cylinder(radial), and lines can go a long way for little dough. The R1 could be a good bike as long as it's been well taken care of. Check for valve noise, and if he has had the valves adjusted etc. Most sport bikes don't live to have that many miles on it because of being wreaked and not well maintained, not because they aren't reliable with a bit of miles.

Those hawk gt's are freaking awesome.

EBCs are what i run on my stuff. HH compound is pretty dam good on this old VFR

Time, temp and volts. ShowChrome is the company. About $25

i've got one of those on my vfr. I need to find a better place for it though.
