98 VFR with only 3k on the clock

...if you don't mind doing a little repainting here and there. Not my bike, but I thought the horrible paint job was worth a mention.

Wow, that is ugly.

Probably 3k on the odo, not the bike. Looks like a rebuild based on the paint job...

 

that paint job is uglier than a 4 year old's easter egg. I guess he painted it to match his cub scout pinewood derby entry?

 

3K mile, I am not sure about that. It is probably turn over once (103,000) and the color sure ugly.

 

Oh come on you bunch of closed minded, right wing, color bias, red owning, design lacking cry babies...... I like it

 

Im with you, i think it looks sweet !

 

I have a Cannondale tandem and it has a custom paint job...yellow in the front that fades in the middle to blue in tha back. It is beautiful (to my eyes) and one sees yellow and blue together quite frequently on many things. Ever see Sweden's flag? Looks mighty fine to me!

 

Every see the Sunset on the Coast with the Yellow rays of sun streaking across the darkening Blue skies and the Deep Blue sea quenching the Bright Yellow sun?

 

It's been my experience that 95% of the time when there is a new paint job it is because it has been down.

As far as this paint scheme, I don't think it's too bad except for the yellow stripes in front.

My gut feeling is some kind of rickey-racer owned it and thrashed it.

Just my $.02

 

Its my experience that 95% of the bikes out there have been down. :smile:

I currently am running a "been down" bike, and there's nothing wrong with it. Nor is there anything wrong with a bike thats been down. Its how it was repaired that matters.

and thats my $.02

 

the stripes on the front make it terrible. and all that work to paint it after 3k? hmm.

 

lol:rofl: are you counting mine 3 times :biggrin:

 

That paint job would scare a bear off a meat wagon.......

 

But I would ride it even to a Mexican cock fight !

 

man, if only elf would chime in ......... that would make this thread complete. LOL

 

You guys are making me laugh out loud!
