    23 years ago I wanted a white 1993VFR but with 2 boys in diapers, it was not to be. I have been looking seriously for a quality one but all needed too much work or plastic.. Being picky and patient paid off. This cutie with maybe 20k miles and nary a scratch anywhere is my reward for being picky. Notice the center stand and tail cowl. It's going to look good next to my 2nd and 6th gens in the stable. Looking forward to many years of stewardship of my "white thing" that makes my heart sing.

    Congratulations. Nice score! Been doing the same for a decently priced and good condition Honda Hawk NT-650 and hopefully the patience will pay off for me too.

    Looks great! Awesome to see another 93 in white that isnt chopped up. I thought mine was clean, yours is pristine! Now I have something to shoot for. And your others are nice too I guess...:cheersaf:

    Here are a couple of other VFRs in my collection. No where as pretty as my White Thing.

    The 1993 is one of my favorite VFRs. For the age, it looks fantastic. Nice find.

    Go through the brakes and flush all fluids. May be a good idea to replace t-stat, just saying. I have a laundry list of the chit I have replaced on both of my bikes. My 93 has some stuff my "First Wife" don't have on it. First wife does 150 mph no problem and rides better than the lower mileage 93 which will do 145 mph. I am loco in the cocoa though...Cheers :vtr2:

    I I have to tell you it needs nothing. It's from the collection of my best friend. I know the history of this bike is one of a dozen or so he takes meticulous care of all of them
