2007 Vfr Abs (asphalt)

Here's the conclusion to the "They Are Going In" opus, eighty-six days after I brought my '04 Asphalt in for service (I'll have to wait for some sunshine pics).

Some notable differences are the frame and radiators are black, the markers are clear, the master cylinders are silver, the exhaust is brushed, the screen is smoked and the wheels are gunmetal:

This bike is incredible. Love the Asphalt color and the ABS. (IMG:style_emoticons/oldemoticons/fing02.gif)

A few more touches of black will make it the ultimate stealth bike! Looks good, and good(better) luck with this one!! (IMG:style_emoticons/oldemoticons/fing02.gif)

Thanks! It is my first new bike, so I have perma-grin. (IMG:style_emoticons/oldemoticons/biggrin.gif)

It's been overcast here, but I expect it will look good in the sunshine. (IMG:style_emoticons/oldemoticons/cool.gif)

Crap. You've pretty much convinced my that I need to black out my frame now. Thanks. (IMG:style_emoticons/oldemoticons/dry.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/oldemoticons/goofy.gif)

Congratulations. I have been following the saga since the start. An incredible situation that you should not have had to endure. But in the end you have a very nice (yes, I'm jealous) bike that I hope you enjoy for many many miles. Happy riding my friend (IMG:style_emoticons/oldemoticons/fing02.gif)

Getting out and about, finally. Or, here's my reflection in a horse trailer at 70 mph . . ..:

Yes. (IMG:style_emoticons/oldemoticons/fing02.gif)

Why stop at the wheels? You could also buy the anniversary edition tank and plastics. . .. (IMG:style_emoticons/oldemoticons/wink.gif)

Right... but I would have bought an 07 anniv. if I wanted those plastice (IMG:style_emoticons/oldemoticons/smile.gif) Don't get me wrong, I like the tri color, but it's not the bike for me. Enjoy your great lookin new ride!

I just returned from a little four-day loop. (IMG:style_emoticons/oldemoticons/biggrin.gif)

The new bike and I are getting along just fine. (IMG:style_emoticons/oldemoticons/fing02.gif)

Good Golly you must have broken that bike in quick...

My riding habits don't produce nearly as much mileage - 2 weeks and 170 miles.

Love the bike - the asphalt color is beautiful.

Tom

Thanks! I really like this bike. It seems to be well-received.

I was bikeless for about 3 months. Once I had the new ride, I put on 600 miles the first week and got that service out of the way. As it sits in my garage a week later, the bike is almost ready for the 4,000 mile check. (IMG:style_emoticons/oldemoticons/fing02.gif)
