    Hey all,
    I am finally a VFR owner! i had been going back and forth between an 800 and a 1200 and after weighing all the pros and cons, I finally decided on the 800. The bike is an '08 ABS version with just over 8000 miles. She is bone stock at the moment but i have ordered some Techspec tank grips, a Kietl tank protector, and a set of OEM panniers. I am very interested in getting some sort of strobe set-up for the tail lights, would love hear to what others have and recommend. After that, probably go with either Remus, Leo, or staintune cans. Here she is....

    She is gorgeous. Panniers are a nice addition. I was hesitant about them first, but after getting mine installed, I love them. Get a top box while they still available. My VFR is bone stock and want to get an exhaust. I was thinking about the Leo SBK. Staintune is expensive and not sure if it is worth the extra price. If you get a exhaust,then get a PC3 or PC-V.. Enjoy the bike!!

    Congrats on the new ride.I used a unit from www.Customdynamisc.com . Its called the ultimate strobe, very small and inexpensive. Have mine set to flash 4 times, then solid and repeat, plus have a LED bulb in the top plug on my tail light. Good luck and be safe :vtr2:
