#1 shaynej Thread starter 23 May 2009 07:59 Since so many people seem to admire the 25th Anniversary Edition, I figured maybe I'd start a picture thread of various 25th Anniversary bikes...06.14.08.d.jpg
This thread is just begging for a nice pic of a RWB with white rims. I've thought about it but I prefer riding over cleaning wheels. Here is a pic of the kids.

I dont understand why the colors arent exact. I like the original colors best. Red white and blue, baby.

RWB in OregonCape Lookout Oceanside OR coast VFRDfog.jpg Mt Adams Fall
2007 VFR800, 1984 VF1000F and a 1983 VF750F.
RWB - is it just me or does this tri-color add class to the VFR's lines? I love it when other riders ask can they take a piture of it. To date, I've had an older couple on a Harley, one GSXR rider, one Ducati dealership manager, several VFR owners and a truck driver at a rest stop. The funny thing is, they never ask me to pose with it. :beer: 100_0726.JPG 100_0973.JPG

Of course I have
no room to talk. :rolleyes:
Off topic, but are those shortened pipes? What are they? They have to be 6 inches shorter than the pipes one post up...
And several users have custom powder coated or painted their rims white. It was not an option.
Back on topic
Love those Oregon pics, wow! New desktop!

The white rims definitely look the best on the RWB, but what a PITA to keep 'em that way (remembering from my former 2nd gen RWB). I found that S-100 worked about the best for white wheel maintenance, but it ain't cheap.
I just bought the three part white pearl paint!!! I'm going to do the wheels before I ever ride the darn thing!!!
Someone in one of the VFR forums posted a pic of a 25th Anniversary RWB with the 8 spoke white wheel on the bike and it looked fookin awesome!!! I've been looking for the pic but can't seem to find it? Anyone else seen it before?

Those red viffers aren't THAT thorny, dogman. After all, they are the fastest color.... :wheel:

Gold rims look cool and give it a very special edition look. Nice! JD

oh yeah, liking the gold. I'm getting my rear powdercoated, will have it back on Thursday, will post up a picture with my RWB with Titanium rims...

I still love this thread. I know longer have a RWB, but still periodically change my desktop background to pictures from this thread.
Here's my contribution to your very biased RW&B theme. :woohoo:
I remember seeing a 6th gen with a duplicate '86 VFR paint scheme somewherer here a few years ago.
When I first got the bike.
