VFR owners' thread, for VFRPS members and prospective members

**sasas** · 31st March 2016, 23:58

Hi.. I just bought myself a vfr 800, 2007 model. Was wondering if any of you guys know the diameter of the muffler's inlet size. is it 2inch?
Anyone selling used aftermarket exhaust for the bike?

Haha so true. It's one of those bikes that needs a good support crew :-D so finicky! Worth it though...working on the Yamaha makes me appreciate the Honda build quality

Anyone got any NC30 calipers or brake pistons to spare?

**Icemaestro** · 27th April 2016, 09:27

Or know of a cheaper place to get Pistons from? I See a set on tm - but who knows how good 25 year old Pistons are....

Have been looking at that caliper on trademe but I can get one from Japan cheaper.

The problem I have can be seen in the last couple of photos here:

Sweet have messaged you

Niice. I've got some really light pitting right at the end but moves okayish so haven't worried too much :-p. New Pistons are expensive!
