nope...the panniers are bought separately. cannot installation leh. Try getting a second hand VFR. Its more worth for budget personels. It is pretty bullet proof with mileage. So far no complaints from fellow viffers :cheer:

I came across an article in http://www.vfrdiscussion.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=11984, so credit to them.

 

It might be that the knocking sound comes from the PAIR valves under (rather than in) your fuel tank described in that article.

 

Hope it helps.

As you know, I am having the low FC problem in SG ever since I had gotten my interceptor.

 

230-240km before reserve in SG.

30% expressway riding, rest stop and go minor roads.

 

Just last month finally I had seen a much improvement of 40km+ before reserve!

 

280-290km before reserve in SG.

Same riding style, never drag more than 6k, same road conditions and same petronas fuel.

 

So what's the trick? just a change of the OEM spark plugs that I had gotten from HamsterZ over the old Denso which is still in pretty much good condition.

did you check you plug gaps? Were they in specifications? Condition of the plugs does affect response and mileage. A plug with too big a gap will dun burn your fuel as efficiently as before. To what extend of improvement i am not sure.

 

I am also getting about the same mileage as yours without my pipes. 290km to reserve and 80km more to dry. The best was 310km to reserve and 100km to dry.

Hi, I am looking for a yellow VFR800. I believe the new Vtec version does not come in yellow, only the older version. If anyone has one for sale, please call or sms me at 97822829. Thanks
