    Bweiss is the youngest in the Sacramento group, not really sure of his age but I think he is going through puberty. Soon.

    I stopped in a restaurant with my fiancé on Old Yeller once, and the waiter kid (maybe 19-20 years old) was getting all aroused by my bike. I would have thought he just thought it was a "sportbike" but he actually threw out a few VFR facts - he actually knew what it was. Surprised me - I thought the young 'uns all wanted R1s and CBRs.

    24 here and I've got an 03 VFR. I have to admit at first I was all about the 1krr and r1s but I just couldn't swing the insurance (lowest rate i got was 3500/year compared to 275/year for vfr). Then somehow I stumbled across a picture of a sick looking bike, that was also supposed to be fast and comfortable? I was in shock and awe. Low and behold 4 months later, theres a silver vfr sitting in my garage.

    edit: Since the pic I've taken off the luggage rack and its classed up the bike 100%

    i'm 27, and have a 95 750. i've been hooked on vfr's from a very early age. anyone can buy and dump a cbr/r1/r6/ninja, but it takes a little class to appreciate the VFR. And boy, will she appreciate you back! :biggrin:

    I'm 34 & on my second 91 VFR, got my first when I was 22. Fell in love with the RC30 as a kid going to races at Laguna Seca. So far It's the closest thing to the RC30 that I can get my hands on.
