    now THAT looked like fun... However the title is misleading... Based on the instruments, it's NOT a 2009 VFR800, but it was taken in 2009 while on a 5th Gen VFR800... lol

    Still would be an AWESOME experiment.

    That looked incredible. Thanks for posting! A great ride, and he/she showed what the VFR can do. I especially liked the part when they passed the Ferrari, then Porsche, then Mini-Van. Hold-up, back up, Mini-Van? Where they filming the next Family Vacation movie? Look kids, the Great Wall, Berlin, Nurburgring!

    Thanks again for posting, I really enjoyed it, and hope someday to experience that for myself.

    I love the turn signals to pass... they got their crap together over there. I wish I lived next to that track, then again maybe not.

    They weren't racing, anyone can show up and pay to lap.

    IIRC, Nurburgring is actually used by civilian traffic on certain sections as opposed to it ALWAYS being nothing more than a race track... so that explains some of the civilian traffic... i.e. Mini Van, etc...

    Although it would be interesting to see a bunch of mini-vans race the track. How many times could you get the van on 2 wheels and still maintain control?

    I taught him well. Damned I wished I could ride like that. But there were a few times he could have given her more. There was room on the throttle and from what I could see on the speedo, there was room there too. But no way that was a 2009. I doubt it was even a 6th gen cause the speedo was not digital. Could be wrong.

    Yeah, I know this thread is old, but I just stumbled across it. I currently live 40 minutes away from the "Ring. You pay 21 Euro per lap, and can put whatever you like on the track, as long as it's road legal. I've had my VFR out there twice so far, as it's just to chaotic. It is considered a one way toll road, but if you crash, you have to pay the wrecker fee, and any lost time as well, as they stop all traffic until the damage is cleared away. It is cool just to go up there and look at all the cool cars and bikes that show up. Everyday is like a free car show there. I do my best to go to the WSBK Race that they hold there as long as I'm stationed here anyway but that's on the GP Track and not the Nordschliefe.
