    Picked up this 2001 two weeks ago. 5061 miles on the clock. A few very minor scratches is all. Had to replace the STOCK front tire right away. The rear tire had approx 100 miles on it. Runs and handles like new.

    I previously owned a 2007 VFR and put 26,000 miles on it. It got stolen two years ago and I've been bikeless until now.

    Like a lot of folks have stated before, the 6th gen has a little better suspension and a little stiffer frame, and the 5th gens have the better motor. I absolutely love the way this thing runs and sounds. Its great to be back in the saddle again!
