- The VFR1200F is unique in that it has no visible fasteners on the bodywork. Honda used automotive-style hooks and bosses to hold the fairings in place. Without a shop manual, some might find it tricky to remove the VFR's fairings. This short video will show how simple it is.

Still using this video preparing myself everytime I strip the fairings... So grateful for your effort to upload it!
Thank you, I've installed usb charger next to my traction control button, so your video helped me a lot. After so many years it's still helping people. THANK YOU
I am considering buying a VFR1200F, preferably the DCT version, so I liked and favorited this one for future reference. Thanks Taylor!
That seems pretty straightforward, thanks for the video. I'm on the fence on this exact same bike, $6k with 11k miles, seems like a steal
Good buy. I just bought my blue 2012 for 7k with 7,500 miles
You have to do this every time you want to change the air filter
Just stopping by to say thank you for the video, helped boost my confidence before shedding the cowls!
Just want to thank you for uploading this. I just finished installing the crash covers on the crank case and discovered that the fairing needs to come off for it. I could have never finished the job without your video. Totally selfless act on your part to make it but I cannot appreciate it enough. Ride safe :)
Thanks for the video. Made the process really straight forward with no swear words or broken fixings! 👍🏻
Thanks muchly, I will have your vid to hand when I start to take my VFR apart!!! THANKS.
Thanks for this vid mate. My memory is not very good and It comes in very handy every time I do maintenance!
Your a champion!
Thank you heaps for taking the time to make and upload this video. Super helpful.
Thank you for taking the time to make this video ... it helps a great deal, especially seeing the longitudinal boss :-)

Thanks for doing this, great video. Helped me a lot!

A great tutorial, Thanks.
Great guide, you save my day! Many thanks!!
Thank you! Helped a lot! 🎉
thanks buddy, dropped mine, so really need this procedure.
Thanks Mate! It helps a lot! I am gonna fit crash bars myself.
Love the horn. There's instructions on my blog on how to hook it up. I've blown s couple fuses with it. You'll need s 20a
Just bought a new DCT bike so will find this really useful. Many thanks. BTW, how do I get the vid' out of 'cinema mode' ?
Thanks, needed this info for fitting trex sliders...
McDaymo same here!
Great video, saved me hours........
Did it, thanks very much!!!
Good way to scratch the fairing up at 4:55
Thanks, very helpful.
How do I view the horn fitting on your blog? I don't do blogging. Cheers.
Absolutely awesome! Want to add red LED's to the outer fairing, to show on the silver mid-fairing. Did you add an air horn? My horn seems to be weak, I had a Strebel horn on my PC800, might upgrade the big girl's voice.
Great vid man! Thanks. But i eeked when you put the paint side down on the garage floor heheh.
Yeah! That was concrete, man! Thanks for the review, but until we figure out where exactly are all the screws and "clicks", it's going to be tricky. Not easy to remove that fairing at all...
it surely is a very useful video indeed !
Fantastic, I was only watching bike DVRs and was thinking of fitting my GPS better, how does it know what I was thinking of next :)
Thank you so much for this video, I already saved it!
Thanks for your video it is excwellent,, my VFR is even the same colour as yours, best bike I have ever owned, could do with a bigger fuel tank though.....
Excellent thanks. How you liking the honda now?
I have the same problem, did you get infos on how to remove the windshield?
good work
PERFECTO, GRACIAS POR LA INFORMACION
How do you like that horn?
I just got the exact same one I just need to install it.
Thank you
Thanks man!
Did you really just lay a painted surface on a concrete floor?!
Yes He really did
OMG!!!!
I'll never live that one down... If you knew how obsessive I was about keeping this bike immaculate you'll know how badly I cringed when I did that. Camera was rolling, brain was shut off.
The sound of the paint face down on that sandpaper sounding grave floor.... ewww. Made my bum twinkle
I screamed aloud when he did this. "No, dude, no!!"
Thank you 😁
Very helpful video, would never have got the fairing off successfully without it. Can't get it back on now! Any tips on how to slide it back onto the horizontal clip without 3 hands?
Obviously a long time since your question. Did you manage to slide it back eventually, I'm just going to remove mine over winter.
Thank's for the vid
Hello and thanks for these video. I have a question : can you give me the references of your workshop bequille ? Thanks
How do you remove the upper cowl? There is a screw in the inner side wich I can take out.
No not "hard"...but a PAIN IN THE N&$)!! Have to take it ALL off to do ANYTHING. 😡
Thanks, again, for the video. Apparently I have to re-learn it every time.
Taylor,
This video was great and made it fairly easy to get the side panels off. Can you please give me some advice on the proper way to re-intall them? I'm having a hard time with the right side panel. It's the only one I took off to do an antifreeze flush. I'm trying to get the top boss on first and it is very difficult to see it to make sure it's on correctly. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Exactly hahaha. I just took off my fairings to install frame sliders and replace the halogen light bulbs with LEDs. That was the easy part. I’m having a difficult time remembering what goes where now. Give or take, I did go a tad bit further in removing other parts not shown in the video.
As a owner of vfr1200f I can say, that some screws/plastic connectors could be left intact.
Thanks ✌
Other side, housing, fairing, right side? Can you please approximate places?
amendment: the lower fairing doesn't need to come off to remove the mid cowl. Also, the little phillips screw doesn't need to be removed.
Jeee, this scares the hell out of me ... I just want to route the GPS charger cable! I may meditate over this ... ! :-o
(Great video though. Thanks!)
Listen buddy I want to clean the parts behind the windshield, can you assist me with removing the windshield please?
Excellent video. Now...how do I reinstall them!@!
Yes, any info on this would be appreciated. Thank you.
jesus christ, i'll never take the side fairing off again, what a horrorshow. thanks for the instructions though
Fireblade, any advice on getting the right side panel back on? I did an antifreeze flush and am now trying to get the top boss lined up and installed before moving to other points, but I'm not sure that I'm doing it right because it is the horror show that you mention.
@@shaurajones6415 you need to install the inserts separately before. The panel goes on in its own. The screw on top can be tightened if you bend the plastic slightly outward
A-GREED! "WHY!? HONDA, WHY?!" 🤣
Now let’s see a vt of you putting them back on without pulling your hair out 🤓
to reinstall, hit rewind !!!lol
Everything good until you flipped that panel onto concrete.
Wow, installing my frame sliders IS NOT going to be fun at all!!!!
LOL....
Well done for filming a "How too" video .... Why on earth did you flip a perfectly good panel "Paint side down" onto concrete, it made me cringe.
