I have about 9000 miles on the veefalo now and I am always getting ready for the next big ride, this season I needed to inspect the airfilter and I just went ahead and bought a K&N online - they are about $50 bucks for a vfr1200 average. I took both pictures and video for this project
There is no hd segment so turn off HD, then I took pictures along the way too, and I half arsed installed a few pieces of a tank slapper kit on the most worn parts of the body work of the bike. Install the rest later when time allows.
Tank Slapper kit vfr1200 I have only installed one of the front covers and the tank pieces where my jacket rubs against the tank
