    Beautiful bike! Stock color? The blue makes it look more modern than it is.

    Nice find, a beautiful example of a great bike !! And you have the centerstand ! :eagerness:

    With a dental pick and a thin knife blade and several hours work you can straighten out the crumpled oil cooler fins if you have enough beer or smoke to reduce the sheer boredom of the job.

    It's a good long distance ride but after a few hundred kms you be sayin "Raeva me verker !" :crushed:

    Thank you! Yes its the original color, i think it makes the bike look great!

    Thank you squirrelman, i have only driven the bike a 100km so far, but i am planning a 1500km trip this summer, so i am hoping that the bike will hold up!

    Thanks rolling_again, i'm pretty exicted.

    Nice! Always loved that blue. So pretty. Been considering painting a set of 1000R bodywork in the blue/silver U.S. scheme.

    Is this your bike? If so, do you know where one could acquire that rear seat?

    Not mine. Just grabbed the pic for an example. The rear seat cowl came stock on the U.S. 86-87 VFRs. I think it may have been an accessory for your version? I'll bet someone will chime in with more info.
