New owner of a 5th gen from upstate NY here. Have owned quite a number of bikes, finally came across a viffer I couldn't pass up. Now I see what I've been missing. Bike has a shorty vance and hines pipe on it and it sounds unreal when I get on the throttle, easily one of the best noises ever. I'll be adding a PCIII on here soon, and might be hitting up the community for some help with maps and knowledge, so thanks in advance! UF
Before my current bike, I bought a brand new 1999 VFR800. The 5th Gen is an awesome bike. Where exactly are you in NY? Sometimes people refer to "upstate" as north of NYC. Congratulations and welcome to the forum.
