My first VF

Hiya all,
my name is Sasha, and i just became a VF750F '83. owner.
It's not in mint condition, but it still runs and turns heads:smile:

 

Welcome

Welcome to the forum. Post up some pics.:thumbsup:

 

Thanks:thumbsup:
I will post, just waiting for damn rain to stop, it's been going on for days
No cosmetics work on her for now, just basics- oils, filters, sparks... And she's got a bit twisted fork, it will be fixed when dust seals come... a bit hard on me old knuckles , otherwise she's all fun:wink:

 

sweet score!! post up them picture's some of us cant read here :biggrin:

 

Alright, here we go:











Don't be too rough :smile:

 

rough!? she looks damn good dump that rear fender and it will look great!

 

holy sweet shit

That is a cool bike!Don't tell Squirrel!:thumbsup:

 

What a peach! Never saw one with so much gold. Time to ride!

 

Really, that bike looks great, never subject to juvenile neglect or abuse, and if it runs as well as it looks...............

you're golden !


"Gear-driven cams?" Not on that baby!

Enjoy!

 

Squirrelman! Did anyone ever tell you that you bear an uncanny resemblance to the late great Jerry Garcia? Amazing!

P.S. Nice bike!

 

For being a 26 year old she looks great. Believe you've struck a little too much gold. Paint looks great.

 

what is up with that logo/emblaem/badge or whatever? I didnt even notice until you pointed it out.

 

Lol, i know, i know...
Previous owner repainted her and i have no idea what is that :redface:, must of dropped it or something...
Believe me, she runs great!! As i said, the front left pipe is a bit twisted, nothing much, but enough to spoil my cornering in low speed. I think i'll fix it with no problem... Otherwise, i have no problems with her, :smile: besides the obvious golden frame :smile:
Last night the guy on R1 stood by the side on the traffic-light and was looking at me (or my VF) like he saw a ghost... It was like 'i can't believe what you are riding... and it sounds so perverse...' you could see that he was impressed. I just shift it and went my way... damn cool!

 

sweet! nice one there!:thumbsup:

 

what that shows is that you are not a squid out to go 0-1000 in 3.1415789 seconds....it hows that you are a conasuier of the interceptor lineage......I kind get the same when I rode the 86 700. it was primer at the time but people thought it was really cool that I was "bringing back a legend"...

 

It's official: I am in love...
Beautiful day today, i took her on a middle-range ride... it's so much fun. That old but powerful V4 is doing everything i want, and much more... :smile:
I am so happy to have it, no words to describe the feeling :redface:
Anyways, i need an advice from someone more experienced with VF-s>> Twice today, when in second gear, approx. in 4K, engine had a 'hickup', like it wouldn't have enough gas in it and then it popped, sounds like a broken exhaust... Maybe it's carburetor problem, or bad pipe... any opinions?

 

Hope i am not boring you, i made a short video on parking lot near my flat...
If enyone is interested in hearing her, there you go >>

it may need the correct jetting.

 

:rofl: i cant quit laughing at that dog chasing you

 

ound: me too....
There are couple of fails in the video>> first there's Yamaha keychain :crazy: (gift from me lovely lady); and then there's George, adopted pariah dog that follows me everywhere... Somehow, he manage to find himself in every video i make :bounce:
