    Understood. Even though you don't have it any more, you were fortunate then. There have been a number of threads lately where people are looking locally for a RWB, but are having trouble finding one. Even on eBay there aren't more than a couple at a time, but then you've got to add the shipping costs ........

    Man I wish but I am he only one around with a VFR or so it seems! It's definitely weird with the RWB's like 2007vfr said. It seems they are all over at certain times and when you really want to find one, they are nowhere to be found, lol. There is actually a really nice one on the classifieds here but it's in North Carolina. If I could find one within 300 miles I would be happy, lol.

    Thanks for all the encouragement guys.......I will keep looking. Maybe someone from here will be at e Indy MotoGP....:)

    I had a Red 2004 when the 07 RWB came out. I wasn't thrilled with the Red, but bought it new in the crate in 2006 for $6,500. I really wanted the RWB, but lived with the Red. In a moment of weakness I sold the 04 last year. This winter I found a RWB and bought it. Now I have the bike I wanted since 06. They are around, but you generally don't find them for an impulse buy.

    Hehe..no big deal. What concerned me most was that guy was basically trading his bikes off every chance he got. I want to find a bike that has a few things done, with the factory bags and was well loved by the owner. I take pristine care of my 2000 and expect no less if I get a 2007 :)

    Oh and the red grips and blue windshield were not good, lololol :)

    That's my bike...just because I trade em...doesn't mean I don't take care of em. The Red grips...ok, I'll give you that one :rolleyes:. Nothing $12.99 wont fix, hell I'll even put black ones on for you. Windscreen...got the stock screen. Bags....got the OEM bags as well. Loved? Seriously? its a motorcycle, not a child, Taken care of? Definately..oil changed every 1k miles. I'd be happy to give you the names of all the people I've traded bikes with...you can ask em the condition of the bikes I traded them. Trust me, I wouldn't of spent the $$ on the extras (sargent, c.f. leovince, bags, zumo) if I wasn't going to take care of it. I'd guarantee its probably one of the most well set up, cleanest RWB VFRs you're ever going to find.

    Hey man, sorry and I meant no disrespect but that's just the vibe I get from your add. It makes no mention of factory bags etc. It's all good...looks like a nice bike.

    Thanks for the welcome scuba...long time lurker, was looking for RWB factory decals in a google search and it brought up this thread. You wouldn't happen to know who sells em would you? Wanted to spice up the Bags a bit

    CRFan..its cool...just bought the bags recently. I do like the VFR a lot. Only reason I'm selling/trading is because I got my eye on a K1200R. I can see where your coming from with the ad. I am the type of person who loves motorcycling....not motorcycles. I'm sure one day I'll find the perfect bike that I will want to keep forever. I guess until then...i'll keep riding anything/everything I can until I find the "ONE". Last 4 bikes include 99 Triumph Adventurer, 04 BMW Rockster, 06 KTM SuperDuke (currently for sale on ADVRider, the one with the RedBull graffix), 09 Buell Ulysses. Anyone know where I can get a set of black grips??:tongue:

    After a long search & you finally find the RWB that you're happy with, there will be hordes of RWBs in your area come up for sale...

    :smile:
