I took a photo tonight in the garage. Cleaned her up a few nights ago, cleaned and lubed the chain. Did the first chain adjustment weeks ago, around 4000 miles at the time.
I swear she sounds better now than when I first got the Delkevic slip-on last year. Wow I love this bike! Could not have chosen a better bike, amazing combination of power, handling, comfort, confidence, performance on the road, ride-ability in wet weather, balance, beauty, braking power, options, good wind protection, very good set of gauges and read-outs, great headlamps for riding at night, amazing sound, and she gets alot of looks everywhere she goes.
Im so glad she replaced my CBR600, yet she feels familiar just as the cbr did after over 14 years with her. [image: IMG_07251_zpsgwep6z4r.jpg]
I sense.... Cabin fever.
;)
All jokes aside, that rear tire (if that's the OEM) looks like it's in remarkable shape for more than 4k miles. Mine was toast at 2800.
Ive been riding for the last few weeks consistent even in 30-40f night time temps. I used her for traveling to work all but 5 days from june though the middle of december. She sat for a few weeks here and there over the winter.
4286 miles as of tonight, yes everything but the oil, oil filter, exhaust, and fender eliminator, reflectors, etc is OEM. The tires look good so far, in fact I think I will stick with these tires, or try the dual compound version next, these have very very good wet weather traction, and do great in the dry.
Over winter I didnt ride that much do to competing my dogs in weight pull competitions all over the eastern US, and training them regularly in the freezing cold weather, and of course the snow, gravel, and ice.
How did get the fender eliminator done? Did you buy a kit?

The one SHVar has there was a VFR1200 fender eliminator cut to fit, but it loses the reflector in doing so. If you're interested in one that is 100% street-legal, see the Tail-Tidy thread: http://www.vfrdiscus...-gen-tail-tidy/
