    When I first saw this thread title a few weeks ago, I thought, "Oh gawd, another one of these, now on on this site" When I finally checked it out a couple days ago I realized, it was LITERALLY another one.

    Sigh. Please lock thread.

    If you have absolutely no interest or value this thread, what is the intent or purpose of posting, other than to complain and whine to the world, that's fine, I understand

    what are the odds that we can take page 1-16 and delete them, pick up where we are now, seems to me this is where the post should have been from the beginning.

    turning a new leaf and all something good could be accomplished from here on

    People say don't feed the troll. I say do, as long as it's dumb enough to eat the poison.

    It's always refreshing for "yet another posted reply" to bring forth the "multi-purpose genuine legitimacy" and spirit of freedom of speech for this thread, and thank you for your statistical record to demonstrate inclusion in order to further propel this thread into the future. Meanwhile to focus closer onto the material topic of this thread I just got an email from the good folks at Mike Corbin Saddles and my new seat is in shipment. I look forward to the added support of high-Denistry foam and the "gripper" vinyl to better hold me on the saddle during the high accurate GPS speed tracking testing. It will be interesting to find out if top speed will be an acurate indicator to guage power performance ��

Here is a new "nearby" possibility to get a low mileage RC51 please check this out and tell me what you think a VFR "stablemate" I would offer $5000-5500 if it has good owner and records, also check out the titanium exhaust
    Look at this on eBay:

    Very good articulation ! The RC31 is nearby within 2 hrs would be nice to hear from other 5th Gen VFR owners with RC31 first hand knowledge and what to expect

    I'm still trying to determine if he gets troll of the year, or if he has people reminding him to breathe.

    HE'S A TROLL.

    And all y'all have been feeding him for hundreds of posts.

    And that RC51 is tits. I wanted one when they first came out in a bad way, but had no budget or lifestyle to act on the urge. My friend had one and I stole it for a quick trip down the road and back any time he'd let me have the key. They're shit for touring, with an aggressive riding position and a blinking fuel light at 85 miles or so, but as a track day bike they are fun, fun, fun.

    That said, if I was a poor rider who had thousands to spend, and already owned perfectly good 5th Gen VFR, I'd consider a riding school. My favorite is Class, but there are other great schools out there that teach real riding skills (not racing). One day of a Class rides school will make you smoother, safer, and you'll end up comfortably faster than any modification to your bike could ever achieve. I've heard as much is also true other schools, though I haven't taken them personally.

    Far and away the best way to spend your upgrade budget. And a buttload of fun, too.

    Who's pretending?

    When I'm assholish, it's because I'm being an asshole. It's true for everyone. Might as well admit it straight up.

    No amount of disdain would or could ever defer me from the enthusiasm and intrigue I have for the 5th Gen VFR, today I pushed fifth gear to 133 mph and shifted into 6th gear, I'm thinking it running pretty darn good ��
    On 12/15/16 I traveled 21.5 mi in 24:55 with avg.speed of 51.7 mph and max.speed of 133.0 mph using Speed Tracker. GPS Speedometer and Trip Computer.

    It's a nice , nearby RC51 with very low mileage but the guys asking $1000- over KBB retail, it's too much to pay, I would go $5000 tops

    Dude, we ALL don't really care at this point---have fun feeding that ego of yours and just let this die.
    Also think it laughable you always TRY but never succeed in answering questions from other members, you just answer yourself--- are you taking your MEDS?
    Your enthusiasm is great but LET IT GO MAN----hope ya stop talking to yourself by years end---- that would be a wonderful Christmas gift to all of us hear having to endure this thread for so long.
