Hi, im from north east Ohio in the village of New Waterford. This is my second year riding and I got my vfr so I could commute to Pittsburgh and back. I only rode about 6000 miles last year though but am looking to ride more this year. I ride down 164, 646,170 and 9 alot throughout the year.

Thanks everyone, I look forward to meeting some of you guys. I usually dont ride real fast in a straight line, maybe 10 over, but then I just dont slow down for the bends. I have drug each peg a few times so I guess that is fast enough.

The stealth viffer. :D

Hhhmm...GTO...with lots of plumbing and huge cooler in front...I'm going to guess it's boosted by turbo(s).

Oh, Welcome!

Singular, one 78mm turbo with a 4l80 behind it. Hoping for a 9 this year with the stock bottom end.

Plenty big enough turbo. I wish I could have upgraded to a 4L80E in my TBSS when I had to replace the trans but I sucked it up and put in a very well built 4L70E with enough stuff to hold more power than I could put to it. Hope that bottom end holds up for ya. :D

Sounds good to me, I either ride with some of my friends that ride to fast for my comfort or with my dad who at times is a bit slow, he rides a bmw. Anything done to your VFR? I have a 2 brothers that I took the baffles out of, the VFR snorkel removel and that flapper removal along with a k&n drop in.

did you come to know about ohio riders through vfr forums video by any chance?

Actually my birthday is May 5th and last year at this time I just started riding and had my permit. For my birthday I wanted to plan out a route for me and my dad to spend the day on so I started to google good roads in ohio and came across this site. I read off and on but never posted.

My parents live in new Waterford. My in laws live in Palestine. Small world.

Is a small world, where do they live in New Waterford? We live in the development in dogwood circle.

The 78 actually makes me illegal for alot of classes in NMCA as the largest turbo they allow is a 76mm.

I know the TBSS was notorious for eating up transmissions good to see you got that resolved. I hope the bottom end holds together, if not il buy a LQ9 or LQ4 out of a truck or camper or something and build that.

Welcome ;)

First it was attack of the 250 Ninjas now Viffers on parade. You don't happen to have a Go Pro camera? Be careful of pickup trucks on 170. They don't like VFRs. Welcome to the show.
