    Hi Guys
    Just thought I would Say hi. My name is Shane and i am in Canberra, Australia. I just picked up a 06 red vfr. Nothing flash, just a set of leo vince cans on it. Done about 300km so far on it, between picking it up and a bit of a trip home and some running around, with extra around, just to get used to riding it.

    I have been following the forums for a while now, since I kinda made up my mind about getting one about a year ago, but combination of finances and bike prices have held me back until this gem came up. Oh, and while getting the road worthy today, the mechanic told me of his brother who just sold his for $4k. Now Im feeling ripped off! Might have to go for another ride to forget about it :cool:

    Cheers for now!

    Hi Shane, Welcome to the MadHouse:welcome:

    Be sure to post up some photos of your :vtr2: soon or some folks on here won't believe it exists and will start ragging on you.

    As for the price of other people's bikes - don't let it stress you out. There are always folks out there happy to spin a line about someone else getting a better deal. Just get out on your bike and it won't take long for that ear to ear grin :biggrin1: confirms you have made a great buy.

    Oh and as you will quickly discover a RED VFR is the fastest :potstir:

    Hi Shane, and welcome to the madness! I hope you have had your shots, as none of us have!

    Any pics to share yet? Otherwise, you are just assumed a "bot" and we shall put you in a VFR purgatory filled with Harleydoods and their bikes.... :lol:

    Wow, did Australia perform some secret experiment where they put something in the water to make people smarter? It seems like more and more Aussies are buying VFRs and joining the forum! Welcome to The World Vish!

    Cheers!
