    Hi all
    Just got a 5th Gen VFR800 so thought would sign up to tap into the wisdom in this site.

    Not new to motorcycles but this is my first VFR.

    It has not been a trouble free beginning to the relationship but I expected that there would be some initial maintenance / repair issues to take care of

    So far......

    Steering head bearings
    Fork seals
    Front pads

    Went for a short hop today

    Came back on a tow truck with no clutch grrrrrrrr.....

    Looooove the bike, the ergos and engine are great (and I am not a small fella)

    Will post for advice in appropriate forum
