    Welcome aboard Javi!

    Wow that thing is clean. It's always nice to see older bikes in amazingly good condition. Don't hesitate to post lots of pics of your bike & the places you ride to!

    Many Thanks, It´s an old piece of junk, but I´m really in love with it, and really go fine, it works with 50.000 Kms like the first day.
    Since ever Honda knows how make things well, especially with V-FOURS, they are not the cheapest bikes (neither the expensivest), but really the best in fact under my opinion, 100% quality, 100% fun, 100% durable, 100% reliable........ isn´t it?

    Hola y bienvenido Javi. De acuerdo que los V-4 son motores absolutamente fantasticos. You soy de Mexico, pero vivo en los EEUU.

    That 500 is in great condition. Welcome and have a ton of fun with her.

    Jose

    That is a beautiful example of the classic VF500! congrats.

    100% reliable...eh.... With the proper maintenance she'll give you many more years of reliable service. The top end wasn't as durable as later year V-fours. Just do your maintenance, proper valve gap, and don't bounce her off the rev limiter. It looks like it's been well cared for.

    be proud of that bike!

    That is one of the cleanest 500s I have seen. I had the same paint scheme, but mine didn't look anything like that. Of course I did rescue it from a pile of weeds out by someones house. I would have loved to make it look like that one but it was not meant to be.
