Ortega Hwy Run on the VFR1200

An early Sunday morning ride on Ortega Hwy from Starbucks in San Juan Capistrano to the Lookout Restaurant overlooking Lake Elsinore.
Jump to about 5:30min in the video to see me and a 2015 R1 carve Ortega at unreal speeds!

must admit best VFR 12000 footage Iv'e seen

[@dazsyvo8499]

I agree 👍

[@clearskye4381]

You should win an Oscar for what you filmed. So many thinks happening in your vid. The VFR is looking Astonish. sound solid with a huge power (Ena.Breaks) abs incredible. I am surprise that no cops in there. to be honest looks like " The riders paradise".(I never broken the law and always ride sensible) Very controlable machine. I got the same Eng.sice1200 but Suzuky Bandit. Probably VFR will be the next one or will make the teem with the Bandit. Amazing Vid body!

Thanks, the VFR is an excellent handling and fun bike to ride, a lot of power at the wrist. Ortega Hwy is an awesome motorcycle road too, tons of riders every weekend. There are definitely cops patrolling it ,especially in the summer, enjoy the Bandit.

Just changed from a busa to a vfr 12 so done all the vids yours is the best just upset you didn't catch it

Nice video mate! Just got my ecu back from Don Guhl,-what a difference- after the reflash hands down VFR1200 is the best sport touring on the market.

[@magnusx99]

Nice! the ECU flash really smooths out the power curve and adds some at the top too, it's like a different bike. The VFR1200 is such an amazing bike to ride, love it!

[@graylunsford]

I pooped my pants just watching you guys, but - nice lines and great V4 sound. I think I'm going to try to find a VFR1200F for sale. There are some great prices on them. Thanks!

[@mtgoss40]

Nice! Looks like fun. Haven't done anything like that in over 20 years :(

[@spoppe0724]

Nice DEMO though definitely on the edge

[@richardshort4587]

Fancying one of these but got to sell my BMW K1200LT first. Do yo get any vibration on the pegs or handlebars with this bike, have you had it rechipped or is it stock any problems you've had could you please reply thank you. Nice video 👍🏻

[@magnusx99]

The VFR engine is very smooth and there is virtually no vibration in the pegs or handlebars. The stock pipe was replaced with a DAM exhaust and the ECU was remapped by Don Guhl: www.guhlmotors.com I have heard of VFR1200's hitting 200K miles, they are extremely reliable, I have not had a single problem, I'm only at 20K though. There was a recall on the driveshaft which I had done but I did not experience any problems before having it replaced.

[@richardshort4587]

magnusx99 Thank you for the quick reply to my questions very much appreciated my friend. Keep the rubber side down and God bless you and your family.

[@alanwatkiss7993]

awsome matey would love to click it twice

[@tomharpur4503]

How is your camera mounted?

[@magnusx99]

GoPro on a tank mount: www.amazon.com/Krator-Motorcycle-Camera-Phone-Radar/dp/B016DUJD62

[@udobreuer4131]

Hm, a s i do remember there are speed limits in the US? And what is about those double yellow lines?..and you truly need another exhaust, the serial sounds terrible. I recommend a DAM. Thats what is on my VFR 1200, heheh. But nice Video and nice landscape.

[@magnusx99]

Cool, it is a DAM exhaust! I have the baffle or silencer in it though, I wouldn't want to violate the decibel laws as well and really upset Shawn.

[@jcanuck6237]

reminds me of that game Road Rash !

[@sjaakiegardeje6327]

Nice road! But next time you beat the R1!

[@magnusx99]

I got the power, but the VFR is 589lbs, shaft drive with a 60.8" wheelbase, the R1 is only 439lbs and a 55.7 wheelbase, he can cut those turns so fast! I'm gonna stay on him though!

[@davidmartin7589]

Speed in 5th gear over 100 mph

[@alanwatkiss7993]

Whooppee them sorts off speed are easy, Ive got one

[@ThomasOzOsburn]
