4th Gen Vfr Rises Again

Peter, Sep 6 2006, 05:17 AMI can't say that red was my first choice of color, but in 97 that was it. So along with the new parts, I had the bike painted, and here is the result, rebuild and all.

Woot! That's a sweet looking bike. Well done.

That's sweet. If I get another VFR I think it'll be a 4th gen.

hehe. It's doing pretty good, except for needing to do the damn exercises for strength. Lazy...

Yeah, they kept it. I could have bought it for $1800 and had it back on the road for $800, but there was this pesky problem with still owing $6500 after "full coverage" paid out. Gap insurance would have been nice. Sigh.

Hoping to get a bike next spring, maybe an R1150GS. Love the 1200, but $$$ and I'm never financing again.

How have you been?

Lord, please forgive him, he doesnot know what he is babbling.
Just fry his R/R, that is enough punishment for blasphemy.... smile.gif

I love my NACA'S, but it's kind of a pain to have to pull the small animals and birds out of them all the time where they get sucked in by the turbines......
