    Thats what I said yesterday as it was pouring down rain. I had hugged my trusty Ninja 250 for the last time and waved good-bye as I took ownership of a 2007 VFR with a mere 5K on the clock. I wasn't 200 yards down the road before I had a grin from ear to ear. It never really left my face. Sooo happy I made the right choice. It was this, or a Ninja 650. But this has way more soul. Oh, and it can get up and MOVE! Im already tearing into it to get the maintenance up to snuff. The chain looked like it had seen little attention over the past years, as well as being WAY out of adjustment:frown:. Im going to guess the rest of the upkeep was sporadic as well.
    Well, I'll be checking in and out as I look to add farkles, perform maintenance, and just share the love. Cheers!!

    You are correct! Without pics it never happened. But It did happen, I was there! I have proof!

    Wow! That baby looks really nice. You may have found a bike that the owner never messed with and did probably only the 600 mile check and oil changes (I hope) at the dealer. That would make it a clean palette for your paint brush! Nice find!
