Hello all, have been keeping an eye peeled for a gen 5 over the last few years, hoping for a 01. Could not pass this 98 up, a solid nine out of ten. Stock. 19k. With Corbin saddle,Beetle bags,Helix,tank bra, aftermarket windscreen. Really in great condition, even under the tupperware it looks clean, no leaks etc. Finally got the famous V-4. :biggrin: Have owned several V twins, (Duc MG only), opposed twins, singles, and one inline 1100, my first V -4.:banana:
Congrats! The bike looks great. I like the look of the beetle bags. Keeping an eye out for a pair myself for my 4th gen.
+1. Now go and check your R/R before you become a member of the "I own a VFR and the R/R fried my connections and battery" club. Currently there are only about 8000 members, but membership is open and growing on a daily basis.
thx yes the bike is in great condition, hope it stays that way. Dunno if gen 5 B bags fit a gen 4 but mine are on Ebay as of yesterday, I prefer soft luggage.
Thanks tinkerinWstuff and Pliskin. The PO said the R/R has already been updated,( one of the first ? I asked him thanks to lurking here)-- what is the easiest way to check to make sure ? How come no smiley faces toasting a mug of beer?
:boobies5::drinker::boobies4::drinker::boobies3::drinker::boobies7::drinkers::boobies1: How about boobs and drinking instead?
Snap a pic of the RR setup and for sure people here could tell you if its upgraded. Takes about 5 minutes to unscrew and slide the tail back.
Couldn't attach two pics for some reason Seems to be working fine , I got these readings at battery-- Battery 12.8 v ign on 11.7 idle 13.7 2000r's 13.7 2500 12.8 5000 12.8
