    N00b here.......

    Don't own a VFR.....yet, but would LOVE to have a '97 49 state with blue UK bodywork.


    Currently service manager at a Honda/Suzuki/Polaris dealer, been in the industry about 15 years, most of 'em as a wrench.

    Grew up in LA, have lived in 4 countries and been to about 20 others. Been riding since '85, wrenching since '95. Worked mostly for dealers..... Harley & Honda, with a few small shops in between. Worked for American Honda Motor Co. in '07 and loved every minute of it. Hope to be back there someday as a district service manager. Economy struck, Honda purged a bunch of people, I ended up mostly jobless for 3 years, now I'm back in a dealership. So far, so good.

    That's my story and I'm stickin' to it.

    Welcome Psyco. Glad to hear you emerged from the down turn. Hope it didn't hit you too hard. And for sure, you may be raped by our deviates for your expertise on matters here.

    Welcome, welcome! Double the welcome for double the fun! I too am in LA (county.) Just got my ride in June, and LOVE IT! I think it's the best bike for riding into work (dealing w/So Cal traffic) and then hitting the twisties on the weekend! I live in Glendora, so Azusa Canyon is my playground now!
