    The VFR has been my favorite bike for as long as I can remember. I've owned an old 86 vf750 and a 85 vf500...but never had the chance to own a the real deal VFR. What I consider the real deal is the gear driven cams and the single sided swingarm,LOL.

    Recently I picked up a clean 1990 VFR750 in really good mechanical condition with a great service record. Too bad it was laid down and all the fairings are damaged....but it was cheap enough and I enjoy having a project to work on. Luckily the previous owner saved all of the damaged fairings that he had removed so I have something to work with.

    Some background on me:

    I've worked in the automotive repair field for about 25 years, so I know my way around nuts and bolts and just about any 12v electrical system. I can't stand working on cars on my own time, since that's what I do all day. So I like to work on other things in my spare time, like motorcycles.

    Thanks for having me...I hope I don't get to crazy with pathetic questions that have been answered 80,00 times already...I do try to use the search engines, but never seem to find the correct answers,lol.

    Oh...here is a pic my wife took of me taking the bike home for the first time.
