Hi guys, I'm a learner rider from country NSW, Tamworth if you care.
I have a great interest in Honda VFRs and its thanks to Hooligans' VFR that I stumbled on Aussie Streetfighters. When I get my full licence, I'd really love to convert a '98 - 01 VFR (pre VTEC) to a "Streetfighter" or Naked if I'm specific. Not a huge fan of the high rise tail of the Streetfighter style, but they're still basically naked bikes, so there's a great deal of useful info on here.
The main problem I've been looking to solve for future reference, is the ridiculous side mounted radiators that plagued the VFR and various other Hondas of this era. I've been looking for front mounted radiator solutions, but had not seen any for the 98 VFR. Although Google didn't reveal Hooligan's solution to me, I'm glad I went through his build thread to discover his solution. Although he has stated that the chosen radiator still doesn't quite cover the cooling requirements, it does confirm my idea would have worked to a degree. Another option might be to try and mount the radiators from the newest VFR which has gone back to front mounted, albeit twin, radiators. They might only be used on the US "Interceptor" model though.
Ugh, but I digress. This is supposed to be an introduction post, my apologies.
Cheers people, fight safe!
