:thumbsup: , because of this:

I'm drooling, in love and smiling like a village idiot, all at the same time...
She likes to be ridden wet...
I rode her back from her previous owner, in heavy rain, on the freeway, with band new BT20s with less than 30 miles on them and chicken strips the width of the tire (or so.)

1st tweak (because she's bone stock, 21k km, mint) is to fool about with the suspension. The P.O. told me, upon handing me the keys "yeah, I jacked up the rear and stiffened up the front..."
Jacked up? Hell yeah, I'm on my toes -- as opposed to just about flat-footing the O4 I demo'ed last year. Can there be that much difference?
Full report of my riding impression will be posted in a week/500 miles, whichever comes first...

Let the mods begin!
(Well, I'll first read the f'n manual, eh?)

looks great - did you add the VFR stickers? I don't have those on mine.

No, it came with these non-stock "VFR" stickers... BTW, should I have expected, for the Canadian 02 model, to see "Interceptor" stickers on the back?

I don't have the Interceptor stickers - but I'm not the original owner - so - sorry i can't tell you if they should be there or not.

I'm an original owner of a Silver '02 VFR (CDN). The Canadian versions (up until 05 I believe) had the VFR logo. There were no Interceptor markings on the Cdn version. The front fender also displayed either the Linked Braking system decal or in my case the ABS decal.

Congrats on the new ride Corbeau. You will love it!

Congrats; It looks great, and, it's all yours. I am looking forward to biking with you. We can get John T and create a small red army.

By the way, I have a copy of that cd for you.

It is such a great bike.

No Ken, that's the same as mine (except for the aftermarket VFR VTEC logo.)
Go to find myself some "Interceptor" stickers, scan them, photoshop the French-Canadian "Intercepteur" and print those on decal stock...
