Hi All,

I am back in the world of the Mighty VFR - I picked up my 3rd VFR today, a Yellow '98 model with a few mods. A couple of you know this is my 3rd one, and one I hope to keep for a lot longer than either of the previous 2! I'll be doing some of my own mods over the coming weeks in time for the Snowyride (http://www.snowyride.com.au), as well as getting the suspension overhauled....

It came with: a Bagster tank protector and bag, Ventura Rack & bag & Oxford heated hand grips, new R/R, Battery & chain & recent service + 3 spare rear tyres (2 x Pilot Powers 1/2 used [track day] + Dunlop Qualifier with a screw hole [repairable] but virtually new!)
My upgrades so far - a quick once over clean, (especially the wheels) & I fitted the Staintune I rescued from the old Red VFR.
Future work: Reinstall the Stebel horns, hugger, Overhaul the suspension (initially, but upgrade later), Procure/install lipstick/bullet camera's & recording device

Anyway, to ensure this thread isn't useless, here are some pics:

I am looking forward to getting re-acquainted with a real motorcycle again!
