24, Male, married for all of 6 months...lol I'm in the Idaho Army National Guard, and work full time at the armory here in Pocatello. No kids, and although we're excited to have a family, we're in no hurry! I started riding when I bought my Suzuki Bandit 600S a year and a half ago. I found my 2004 VFR almost a year ago at a small local used car dealership, but didn't have the cash. Thankfully this spring it was still there, and the owner still let me ride it away for $3500. Even more thanks to my wife who let me buy it and still loves to ride, now that she's been promoted from girlfriend to wife!

Yes, I know I'm young, and very new to riding, but I like to think of myself as mature for my age...after all, I ride a VFR...

 

makes me feel like being 22 is too young ... 3rd bike after a 97 yamaha yzf600r and a 05 yamaha vstar 650. just bought in may and i reallllly need bars and an exhaust.

 

just turned 23 proud owner of a 5th gen currently down to r/r and stator issue

50 years old on Sept.4th! Eeek! Happily married for 14 years with two boys 11 and 8. Born and raised in SF, but left in 1988 to live in the country. I'm currently an engineering tech for a small municipality which is career number three for me. Started riding at age 11. Although I'm a monster, I'm just a big kid! Did I up the average??

 

33 yrs old. Widowed 18 months ago. No kids except my two little muts. Work as a finance manager for a Lincoln/Mercury dealership. Have a 95 VFR and it is my first bike. Never rode before until last year. Bike was neglected and left for dead, I have been bringing her back to life and learning as I go.

 

I'm 51, married (wife isn't crazy about bike), 4 kids - all grown and married, except the last which we take to college tomorrow. I'm a church administrator/minister. Learned to ride on my Dad's '75 CB360T; Owned 4 bikes: 76 CB400F; '82 V45 Sabre; '81 CBX; current bike is '04 VFR abs.

 

36, married for 18 (together for 20 this Oct.), son will be 18 in Oct., daughter 16 in Dec.,a spoiled rottweiler, & a cat. Starting riding 3 years ago on a 1986 vf500f, last Nov. got a 1983 vf750f (for sale) & on Father's Day my honey bought me a 1997 vfr750. I started riding w/ my husband way back in high school & was content until I found my 500 sitting in a salvage yard on verge of being turned to scrap. So I "adopted" her right then & there and she's had a good life ever since. We currently own 5 VFR's between him & I.
Now that's not only HONDA loyalty, but VFR loyalty. Our goal is to own 1 of every generation.

 

38 years old, professional photographer, married, no kids, two dogs (one's a bastard, the other is a cutie)...started back to riding on a GS500F...looked to upgrade and saw a VFR for sale...did some research and now own a 1996 VFR750.

I feel I'm officially in the viffer club since my r/r went out on me a few weeks ago and thanks to this site and help, I've got her running again!

Looking forward to the MotoGP in Indy next month as I hope to be shooting photos/video for our newspaper...and drooling at all the high-power bikes there.

 

Post correction. Fingers not working with the brain tonight.
The vfr750 should be a 1996 not 1997. Guess that's what happens after looking @ a computer screen for over 13 hours a day.
I work as an Admin. Asst. for a glass company and I own a catering & baking business.
