    Hi guys. Just joined hoping to learn/share some VF goodness. I'll have a poke around first, but in the meantime, here's a pic of my fleet:

    Welcome, I am feeling some envy looking at your garage. That's a gorgeous collection.

    Clutter. I hate clutter. Get rid of that fucking green chair in the driveway will ya? Welcome to the forum. A trip to your country is on my bucket list. How the hell do you decide which bike you are going to ride? Or do you have a schedule?

    Hi Ian, wondered when you would turn up here :tongue-new: That R is just beautiful got it registered yet. Are you really going to ride it. Seems a lot of the Supersport boys have the odd VF

    Hi Norm. Yeah, the R is good to go. Took it (tentatively) down the Great Ocean Road yesterday. Very happy.

    You're right, there is a fair amount of cross-over between the CBs and VFs. I put it down to a healthy respect for the superbikes of the day.

    cheers

    Wow! Nice rides! I see that there's some room left for a few RC's to complement your collection :)

    Nice idea, but I'll be eating pet food for a while as it is to pay for the R :distress:

    Haven't heard about it Norm, but not really my thing anyway. Looks like the weather will be good.

    There's a Pink Ribbon ride on in Geelong on Sunday that I'll be doing. Probably on the R.

    Ian it is just the thing about the bikers cafe called the Inline4 Cafe that has me a bit intrigued, so of course I'll be riding my CB. Are you going to the GP run from Cranbourne

    BikeBoy, That's one hell of a great garage. You're obviously single as I get in trouble for one cycle, let alone a collection like that.

    Don't even go there. His wife bought him the VF1000RE for an anniversary present.

    I refuse to even communicate with him anymore out of jealousy.
