Man - nice find on the low mileage '97. If the chain, is in fact, rusty, I might be inclined to just buy a new one. I'm running Metzelers on my ride and am pretty happy. 4 G's for life!
Hey guys. So I just put a pair of Conti Road Attacks on my VFR. Wow! Maybe it was because the old tires were cupped and, well, old, but these Conti's are nice! I only rode 20 miles on them, but I could definately tell that they turn in quick. I'm still very "green" on this VFR, and it was really spooking me with traction problems before I put new shoes on it. Seems that all it needed was new tires!
