    Hi all
    Just want to say what a great site this is. Just got a 2009 VFR 800 after my 2006 CBR600F was ritten off after a car done a u-turn on me. Had CBR 600's of varius models for the last 13 years and still have a Telfonica 600RR. Love the V4 engine and the looks. Had an NC30 many years ago, which was a great bike. But it was too small so changed it for a VTR1000 Firestorm. Got the VFR for doing lots of mileage. The CBR has 72,000mile in 4 1/2 years. I've already done 3,000 miles on the VFR in the 2 months that I got her and loved every moment of it.

    Welcome! Word of warning, I haven't stopped shopping for mine since I picked her up last month. She's an awesome bike though, so I'm not really all that upset.

    No evidence. Didn't happen.

    Good one, at least you got to keep your CBR600, I had to trade mine. Just could not afford two lots of rego & insurance on my income (retired). But the VFR more than makes up for it, like it more & more, every time I put my arse on the seat.

    Welcome. 72,000mile in 4 1/2 years. is some serious riding. Good on you. Took me a few months shy of 6 years to put on 100K miles so yup. You care exercising those bike just fine. They like that you know. But all that said, it is all for not if you do not post up pictures of your alleged VFR.

    I don't know about you, but I am not enjoying retirement at all. I am goping to retire from retirement. Have this wonderful bike sitting here ready to heat up the asphalt but fixed income does not allow it they way it used to happen.
