  1. 1999 Vfr800 Resurrection 16 Aug 2015 04:00 Congrats on the work you've been doing. Very fine. Also, I appreciate all the technical details as I am considering purchasing a 5th-Gen with the express purpose of a restoration.
  2. 1999 Vfr800 Project 15 Aug 2015 01:38 Really nice work. Has inspired me to (possibly) go a similar route: purchase a bike in need of a LOT of freshening up, then turn it back into a superstar. For a long time I have wanted to do a frame-off resto on a '71…
  3. What's The Hottest 5Th Generation Can? Post Your Pics.... 14 Aug 2015 23:38 lanesmatb How about a 5th gen Two Brothers CF shorty high mount can? Man, that REALLY works. A great looking bike.

  7. First impressions at the showroom 2 May 2011 14:04 [image: View Post]Coastie, on 01 May 2011 - 09:57 PM, said: I got to take a demo out for only about 10 miles. I loved it. I thought it had great power and the brakes are awesome. But others on here who are use to riding…
  8. First impressions at the showroom 2 May 2011 02:32 Although the 7th-gen has of course been out for some time now, this weekend is the first time I had given it a real close look. This is primarily due to my "home dealer" typically never having any in stock. Took a drive…
  9. I Guess I'll Have To Ask.....? 14 Oct 2009 20:40 [image: View Post]JJbigbird, on Oct 13 2009, 10:23 PM, said: If I could afford a new bike right now I would have to check it out. A ride would (and will) be in order before I would commit to buying it though. If it…

  15. Spotted At Mid-ohio Ama 6 Aug 2008 21:55 Talking with my brother, who rode down to Mid-Ohio from Cleveland on his BMW K12S: he says he saw up close a white VFR w/ white factory hard-bags, probably a 6th-Gen, that had some amazing custom lightwork built into…
