I had a Stebel Nautilus on the Blackbird, it used to scare me! 

  Thinking of getting one on the VFR1200f, reading up on recent reviews gives an impression
of unreliability and early failures.

 Has anyone tried one, also, I've heard they're difficult to squeeze in to available in fairing space? 

  Any thoughts?

Hi, Just joined.

Just come back from a quick tour round Scotland what a great bike the VFR is (2014) 8th gen'.

Well done to to Alan (I assume)   as he is the first member, as an "old" forum user very little i think is needed in the line of re-introductions.

Hello everyone, Plum here from Wiltshire......signing in

Well back on the HOC forum eh?  Wondered what happened to the old one whilst looking for some info i remembered was on there.....so much for that then
'spose as an intro, suffice it to say "50 years of on and off motorcycling seems to have made me very little the wiser !!"
But i have ended up with mostly Hondas but am not a member here 'cos i can't afford to be a member of all the special interest groups that i frequent
Next little trip is to the German Diesel Bike Rally 12/13th Sep. on the CG

Won't let me post piccies 'till my 3rd post

Quite surprised when Privelege gave me the best quote for my bike. I use them for the car.

  MCN Compare always seem to find me a good quote, so I'll use it again next time. Last year
would you believe Saga gave me the best quote! 

Just ready for a pootle today, when I noticed what I thought was a stone in the back tyre,
no, it was a nail head, when I pushed it about, I could hear the dreaded whistle.

   Tyre is still inflated to full pressure, so I dare take steady ride to National Tyres tomorrow.

  As it's in the tread centre, it should be repairable.

  I must confess, I don't always check all around the tyres before a rideout, do you???

 P.S. Has anyone else noticed this forum's insistence on English spelling being wrong?      TIRES!!!

Just found the group off the RTTW page have registered on there and looking forward to the ride from Knutsford

Currently own a 97 CBR 600 F3 and a 61 plate VFR800 Crossrunner......just thought I would say hi

Added a pic of my 2 bikes and hopefully see some of you about
