picked up another Viff

to add to the collection..
97 VFR 750
kind of fell into the deal.
pretty clean, all stock

compliments my 03 nicely..
whats a guy to do with 3 bikes :biggrin:

ill put up some better pics when i get a chance, my garage is packed with bikes at the moment.. not that its a bad thing, but hard to get decent photo.

crappy cell pics

 

Wow, it looks like a great find. Did you get the rear seat cowl? Having 3 bikes is not a problem at all. I've got 4, but like you, I am almost out of room. Congratulations.

 

no i didnt get the rear seat cowl.. but i want it lol.. need to find one

 

Get's expensive having three, but having said that (I've had as many as 9, now just 3) I find the best part of three bikes is this. Almost any bike I've owned, that I've ridden steadily for a good while, at some point I'll feel something or hear something that makes it seem that something may be going wrong. When that happens now I simply switch bikes until that one starts to worry me. It must all be in my head, because when I jump back on the 1st one, the issue (if there was one) is gone. At least for awhile. So, peace of mind. All mine are different enough that its an adjustment to switch for sure. I mean my Guzzi is 1 up 3 down.......that takes some getting used to, going either way!

 

yeah i know about expensive lol.. maintaining 2 bikes is a chore.. especially with my spending habit on my bikes. i guess ill add another

 

Congratulations. Nice looking! You can never have too many Japanese girl friends.

 

agreed.. you guys would hate me if you found out what i paid hehe
just got it running last night, had gummed up carbs... gonna go out and drain the tank and put some fresh gas in it.. maybe take it down the street if i can stand the 35 degree temp.

 

If you're willing to offer it up, then I'd love to know what you paid for it. And no, I don't think we'll hate you for it. Everyone loves to pick up a nice bike as cheap as they can. I'd also love to know how many miles are on it. For the condition of the bike, I'm guessing that they are pretty low.

 

well i got it for $800..
needed the carbs cleaned, which took me a whole 2 hours, i ran some sea foam through it as well, and then drain the old gas .. fired right up and runs like champ.

a better hi quality pic

 

That's awesome!!

 

$800!!!! I don't know if I'm happy for you, or sad for myself. Seriously, I'm envious. It took a while for the '07 to grow on me, but I really like it now. Personally, though, I've been thinking a 4th Gen might be more my style. I like carburetors and unlinked brakes. Great find!

 

schweeeet!!

 

Whoever sold that to you obviously has no clue as to what it is worth. We all love getting a great deal on a bike. Congratulations.
