Hay I'm going for a record, 32 views and no replys :shock:
My other post is 28 views with no comments. Have I offended someone?

Looks in really good nick, strictly a Kawasaki man myself when it comes to bikes, although the only other make of machine I have owned was a VFR, many years ago, excellent all round machine.
I expect you'll be hoping to get a mild winter now then.
I haven't checked out the prices of bikes on ebay, I should think there are some good deals going around this time of year.

32 views by everyone, not necessarily even a member.. Patience, Nick, this is not S2Ki... :)

Nice bike, incidentally, I'm a Honda Bike fan (too) - have a CBR400RR (for short people, you see ;) ) at the moment, but it's a toy and it's not really used at the moment - may have to get it out of mothballs now that the NSX is no longer in my garage :cry:

Nice clean looking VFR, I'm on my 3rd having progressed from the 750, 800 and now the Vtec ABS.

Great bikes that will eat the miles in comfort yet allow you to play, especially in Europe away from the damn cameras! :lol:

Yes frustrating to have the toys and too many limits :twisted: ....
I too had a new VFR 750 in 1992 a great bike but a bit dull.
Pic of my other 2 wheel toy which is now for sale if anyone is interested :D

Beautiful bike....nice than the Senna Duke IMO :wink: !

How's vtec on a bike?

Early vtec's were very on/off at the 7k change over point and this could make it 'interesting' in fast corners :shock:

This one however is much smoother. Honda have tuned the electronics and the changeover point. You still feel the surge of power but its more aligned to the car engines in its deliver.

Great fun :)

They do look good in black! (Both really!)

I've always had a soft spot for the VFR. Then I am a beancounter! :roll:
