Another New Guy - Ohio

I just brought home my first Interceptor tonight. It's a 2007 VFR800, and it flipped 10,000 miles on the ride home. It's my 11th motorcycle. I plan to add a trunk, new tires, and a ST windshield in the near future. Just saying hi!

 

Wow all these newbs, awesome looking bike and just broken in. Ha
Have a Givi V47 and love it. If ya go for there line, addmorelights is the place to get the LED lights for the trunk.
Enjoy

Welcome to The World! As Duccmann said, the GIVI trunks are nice. I have the 55L model and you can almost store a decent sized dead hooker in one. At the very least I can get two full face helmets in there.

 

Beautiful Machine man! Welcome!! Enjoy it to the fullest and be safe!!

 

duccmann, any issues with front end wobble with the trunk. I'm looking to go to a setup like in your picture, but I read a post about trunks lightening the front creating wobble. Just curious if it's really an issue.

 

:welcome: to the madness from the left coast :wave:
Congratulations on your new ride :thumb:

 

Not at all, good for easy power wheelies..... One of the best mods by far---- after wearing a back pack since the 80's at first it felt strange like I forgot to put my pants on HA
Actually saw OOTV's thats what sold me----- DO IT

Welcome to the MadHouse from the far side of the pond :welcome: .


Congratulations on adding a photo with your first post - I may be biased when I say its a very nice looking bike - and of course you will soon discover that red ones are the fastestotstir:.

As for the trunk - it is no issue if you don't carry too many trays of beer! In strong winds a trunk can act a bit like a sail at times but it provides the pillion with a decent backrest, and is probably big enough to carry enough gear for a weekend away. If you really need to carry heavy items then panniers are probably the best choice as it would keep the extra weight low down and further forward.

Take care ATGATT

One thing about this list...

You won't be the FNG for long!

 

Good info on the trunk. Thanks. I'm a noob on here, but I've been on various car and motorcycle forums for years. I can post photos because my wife says I'm smarter than I look. :numbness: So I have that going for me.
