Lucked into a crazy deal on a one-owner 1998/5th Gen yesterday and want to keep up with tech stuff. The gent (77) bought it new in 99 and has cared for it beyond what most people would, tons of documented preventive maintenance over the years and only 1k miles added to the clock since Covid. New to VFRs but not bikes in general, I've owned many brands since 2006 (drank the HD koolaid up until then).
I can already tell that the factory seat and I will not play nicely together, otherwise I'm digging it!
Welcome dude! Post up some photos ! :fing02:
Welcome from Houston! Post pics or it didn’t happen! Lol
Congrats on your 5th gen. and welcome from steamy northern Ohio! 😆
I hope you'll post a couple photos of your VFR here. Seeing pix of these fantastic machines never gets old!

Tank looks great, both brake and clutch systems flushed less than 50 miles ago but was June 2024. Coolant was also flushed and changed at the same time.
@mello dude I'll try to take some pics today, all I have taken are at night in the garage with shadows and such...because I need to finish wiring the garage and hanging the rest of the lights. (It's miserably hot on a ladder in there lately!)
