    I bought a 85 VF500 today. I cant wait to get it road worthy and take it on a trip down memory lane. It is in beautiful condition with 3400 miles on it. Granted it needs new tires and the carbs need to be cleaned but it is beautiful. It will look great next to the 86 VFR750. It is listed on craigslist (sorry I dont know how to do attachments) as the one located in West L.A.

    With only 3400 miles, it is barely broken in. I bought my 500 with just 600 miles on it. They are great bikes. Mine too looks great next to my '86 750. It sounds like you've got a great collection started.

    I see you have a r/w/b 07 VFR. I keep looking at that bike but no matter how hard I try there is no way I could purchase another bike. This time I am really out of room (unless?). Yea, yea, yea, I know I will regret it. To bad we live on opposite coasts or we would have a good photo op. Take care.

    Great buy! I just got mine started for the first time this weekend. I missed the sound over the winter. I can't wait to get it on the road. I did take it for a lap around the yard just for old times sake.
