New To Me 06 Honda VFR

Hey all, just thought I'd say hello as a new member of this forum and a new proud owner of a Honda V4 Interceptor. I'm coming from a 2007 Ninja 650R, and I have to say that the difference is astounding! I was fortunate enough to fare a lot better than the Ninja in a recent accident that left me with some nice scars on my left arm, but from her ashes rises the Honda and to be honest, I couldn't be more happy. I was lucky enough to find this particular 06 with just 515 miles (!) in practically showroom condition with no mods whatsoever, so it's going to be a blast seeing almost every mile on the odometer roll by. I am including some pics of her here that I just got out to take today.
In the near future I will be including some information about some rides that I am putting together, I live most of the year in Los Angeles but summers in the Sacramento area (College student), and I take groups on loops of both areas almost every weekend. When I recuperate a little more and get a little more comfortable on this beast I will be sure to let everyone know! In the meantime, ride hard and ride safe!

 

Don't think the sparkles are OEM ? Could be wrong

Looks cool. Congrats and welcome how did you like that 650?

Mend well take it easy and get to know this bike its a bit more weight than the 650.

 

Congrats and welcome to the madness.

 

Welcome to the nuts house, Nice bike but mine is better

 

Welcome... thats a bright bike. wow

 

Hey guys! Thanks for the warm welcome! The bike looks extra shiny because I had just polished it, and I'm a photographer and have been using a process called HDR (High Dynamic Range) for all of my recent work. Basically makes color look really rich and saturated. Here are the originals. Thanks again for the welcome, ride safe!
