Just Arrived and Enjoying the 'RIDE'

Hello Everyone,
I purchased my 2002 VFR in September of 2011 so this is my first real season of riding. It is Amazing! I really enjoy every aspect about this bike. It was definitely worth the trip from Montreal to Stratford Ontario to pick it up. I rode down on my 1999 ST1100 and delivered it to its new owner, my brother and rode back on the VFR. In October (Thanksgiving Weekend), I made a trip to Old Orchard Beach in Maine and after a day of riding in temperatures that ranged from 40F (4am) to 85F(3pm) I stopped for directions at a convenience store and when I returned the bike would not fire. Turns out there was a recall on a wiring harness that the previous owner had not fixed. I was quite shocked at the breakdown because having owned my ST for five years I know how reliable Honda's are. I had it towed to a Honda dealer and returned a week later with a rented van for retrieval. Everything was fixed for free and all is good now. Quite an adventure and I am looking forward to many more. . .minus the repairs. Take care and Enjoy the Ride!
