    Hello riders My name is Reggie From Yorktown Va.
    I have been reading VFRworld for a few years now finally got
    around to joining. Anyway Im on my 3rd vfr had an 84 vf750f from 94-99
    an 86vf1000r from 96-98, Went back to school and couldnt afford 2 bikes
    and the 750 was cheaper to maintain,but now I wish I still had that 1000.
    So now Im on a 94 vfr750 I got in 07.Someone from the forum posted pics of the bike
    they saw on ebay think it said 94 salvage bike.Anyway got the bike a week later.
    It had a backyard garage paint job and grafix work that looked good from a distance.
    Paint had runs and stickers had bubbles and not done with a lot of care in placement.
    So I took it in my garage and redid it the way I wanted.Think it came out a little better.
    Ill post a few pics before and after.

    welcome to the site. I ride a 98 and it's my favorite bike so far. Mostly I commute but occasionally I ride places and type stories about it. Have fun...

    oh, I'm Reggie also...

    Seriously nice paint! I just recently got a red '94. I want to paint it orange at some point.

    Cheers!

    thanks for the great feedback

    Actually I got really lucky when I bought the bike. The guy i got it from did
    everything I would have done to it had I bought it stock.
    Came with zero gravity double bubble wind shield,two brothers header and
    carbon fiber canister,first stage jetted,corbin seat,aftermarket shift kit which
    is suppose to shift quicker but I think it just looks cooler,vortex racing rear sproket,K&n filter, brand new michelin pilots. And he gave me all the stock parts too.
    So for 3k in 07 I think it was a good deal. The only thing I did was make my own high mount pipe out of some stainless pipe I had laying around and welded it together. Because I couldn't get one even direct from two brothers.
    Thanks Guys Regx7
