VFR Discussion Group -> Greetings from Germany ...

Hi guys,

greetings from Germany!

I ride my VFR since last year and I love it!!!!!!!!

1-2 times a year I travel to New Jersey, my company has a subsidiary over there. I like the routes around the lakes, but I have problems to get my bike into the plane :( .

I wish you always a save trip.

Carsten

hay whats up! NJ hu! oh boy talk about a long way from home!
but don't worry NJ isn't a bad place to visit, heck my wife is a fin and she loves it here.
ok now that was a blatant lie but hay welcome!

Hello Carsten,

I have a connection to Germany. I used to work for INA, based in Herzogenaurach. Now I work for a company called FEUER Powertrain, based out of Nordhausen. Do you know either company or either town?

I would also love to get my VFR on the plane but they won't allow me to put the bike in the overhead compartment!

Ride safe, and maybe I can buy you a beer the next time I go to Germany!

Welcome to the forum. Lots of good information here. I'm pretty new but these guys know quite a bit.

:beer:

Hello and welcome to the group!
What do you guys mean you can't fit the bike in the overhead compartment?
Maybe I should market my shrink ray gun overseas! HaHa!

Thank you! I don't actually own one of these but they look like fun!

So Carsten, I have noticed that most of the Euro-versions of Honda sportbikes have different color choices than here in the States. Are there any different colors offered for the VFR than our silver, black and red?

We also have the slower blue one.

Carsten!

If you will travel this hot summer toward Adriatic coast, dont forget to stop in Slovenia . We can get some :beer: and discuss abouth :wheel: :D

Welcome to the forum.

Thanks to all,

No sorry, I never been in Nordhausen. I live in the western part at the river Rhein between Cologne and Frankfurt.

Nice pic, but I believe this bike will pains my ass on longer trips.

The Honda dealers here in Germany offers the colours silver, blue and red. My favourite is silver.

OHHH YES, let's have some beer ... :beer:
