    So I sold my last Gixxer project/riding bike in the fall of 2007. Dead set against getting another one unless I am teaching someone to ride ;). That being said, I am on the 4th year of my search for an outstanding VFR within my price range (which I won't say). I have figured out that the only way to get a VFR is by only a few key ways.
    1. Buy a new one :bootyshake2:
    2. Buy a wrecked one and fix it up :bs:
    3. lay in wait until your buddy falls asleep and steal his :peep:
    4. (sadly) hope that someone needs to sell for other reason beyond their control :ncb:
    5. hope to find a bike for sale within your price range and pray you're not too old when you see this happen:strong:
    6. be the best friend you can be and get on your buddies will for the next time he crashes and just doesn't make it out alive-but by then it'll be so f'ed up who'll want it :violin:
    So seeing all of this, 'z there one around my area that is within my price range so I may finally be riding this lovely machine-btw kudos to engineering team-

    desperately seeking vfr,

    Hello and welcome Tag......sorry, not in your area, but keep an eye out on Craigslist, and the local ads for a viffer.

    Viffer :-(

    saw on here someone has a post for a '93 and was trying to pm him? maybe I scared him? 2100 is his price and I like the price! I would like some help getting in touch with him. I know that the newer ones are great(I like the body style of the '99-'02 (skip the '03) then the '04 is nice as well... The design has gone a little array since then so 3rd gen in decent shape would be a great starter... I want to get one that I can immediately tear down and get paint process and parts upgrade going... showbike mentality (but still rideable so the lower price and the bettr running, the better I feel about it... A little work is fine but damn I don't want to rebuild yet another motor... sick of it already. Time in the shop has totally outweighed my riding. So I am done. Have turned all my friends to the local shops and uh ah no more for me... I seem to have lost my tools :unsure: Thanks guys for the heads up hope to be seeing a bike soon...

    My buddy vfourbear bought his off of Craigslist. I figured I give it a shot. 2 weeks later I found mine and bought it. They don't come up as often as most other bikes...wonder why? :wink:

    But they are there if you just patience young jedi. :cool:

    THANKS for the reply...

    :bs:That's exactly where I found it. I am looking for a 3rd GEN (no newer than 93)
    and a 5th gen ('98/'99 only) or a 6th gen ('04 only) But at the same time.. I am not spending more than 3200 + or -... depending on my mood ;) I jus have some standards and being able to work on my own stuff, really puts me in a greedy position. I just know what I am going to do to it, and what I expect to get for the money... I know I shouldn't be this way, but I am going to (first thing) tear into it and make some subtle changes... hee hee :ncb: Thanks guys for al your help.. still looking... :unsure:
