A beautiful VFR that may be better than 2019 Japan RWB

What do yo guys think.

I feel the 2019 RWB version in japan does not translate as well as 2007 RWB colorway.

I've seen an 8th gen with the older VF rwb paint scheme and it looks awesome. So good that I'd consider buying a white 8th gen to make one.

I would agree with dutchy  the actual color code for the red  and blue are not perfect but the scheme design is well done.

Not as good as my RWB that I recently sold. 

It looks just okay to me, not great.  Not enough blue, really.  The earlier RWB designs were better IMO, especially the 6th gen. anniversary edition.

The Japanese version RWB is it for me for 8th gen. (But gotta have the bronze wheels.)

Way too many stickers.  The vfr is about understated beauty.

Not my cup of tea. It looks a bit like a police bike from somewhere in Asia.

Hmm, not really sure what to make of it. Agree with Sparkie too many stickers, overkill.

It looks well executed.  The blue is a bit too light for my taste - to my eye it should be a navy or darker blue.  To each their own.  I'm not sure about the graphics on the cases - a bit much.  I do like it though.  If you want to have something at a VFR meet no one else has, this would probably be it! 

Wait, hold up a second.  Wtf is up with the bmw logos on the pic!?!

👎

Never been a fan of white wheels, form over function, cleaning, cleaning.

The blue strip above the D in honda, i think should go to the C in HRC and have an even white margin infront.

And the bronze case doesn't match with anything, should be silver as per frame or black it out with the frame

You guys are very picky🤨 I wouldn’t mind having it parked in my garage.

Give it a new exhaust and she'd be looking her best for sure. Nice one Fink.

Other than the “1000” decal, I really like Steve Rapp’s bike.

THIS! If I could find a deal on a white deluxe, I could be temped away from my 07.

Gimme this bike, with Ohlins USD forks plus shock, VFR999 engine with 130 HP, Bronze wheels, and I'll wet myself....

Yep, get in line, I know I would be... 

But until that happens, I picked up one of these new left overs this year and highly recommend it, 2018 CBR1000RR SP, red/wht/blu, gold wheels, Ohlins, Brembo, quick shifter up & down with auto-blip, TFT display, and yep she's got some power too.  

Thank you Honda, heck of a bit a kit ya built with this one!  :fing02: :fing02:

Would love one, unfortunately age has caught up with me and I am unable to tolerate the riding position on super sport bikes, my hands go numb very quickly, even the VFR fitted with risers can be a problem. Enjoy the new ride a new bike always puts a smile on your face. 😃

Just noticed the sign on the wall. A subliminal message about the VFR?😃 Even if it is a covered boat, I still want it.

This is an interesting attempt.  It's almost right.  But they obviously felt constrained by the fairing contours and, I think, made some wrong choices.  The red stripe should have continued to narrow as it went above the rear turn signal protrusions, for example (leaving them white).  And the blue on the top fairing seems too high at the back.  Also not sure why they didn't continue the stripes over the middle fairing vent area?  Everyone's a critic!

Ciao,

Ummm.... No.

(Though the idea of riding around on a moving advert for cancer sticks in this day and age does have a certain antisocial appeal!)

There are others, but just found that one in a hurry. 👍

Cruising around and just saw this thread. Damn I love this paint scheme. Are there color codes floating around out there for the red and blue? This may be what I’ve been looking for to make my white ‘14 more appealing to me.
