    Hi,
    I'm a late starter to bikes, and just days away from taking my final full licence test.
    On a recommendation I brought a 99 VFR 800 (US import to UK).
    A fabulous bike. I can't wait to ride.
    Looking forward to lots of valuable info from the forum too. :biggrin:
    Cheers !

    just becareful and dont show off on it, bikes are fun and urs is big for a starter bike but have respect for them, they can and will hurt you..... i just got my 1st bike not to long ago maybe 2 months ago and its a vfr 750 91 model, and i had a slow lay down in a parking lot, but shes almost back together, but have fun and be careful.
    Congrats on the new vfr!!

    Also, appreciate the cautionary note. I will enjoy it but also know there's a lot to learn,
    Hope you get your bike back on the road soon.

    Welcome

    There is nothing more therapeutic than riding. On the safety note, I offer up this one good piece of advice that someone once told me when I started riding. No matter what, always remember, that YOU are the one riding the bike, not the people that are asking you to pop a wheelie or rev your motor. If you fall down, YOU hurt, not them. Congratulations on your purchase and hope you have as many great experiences riding as I have so far!
