Greetings, I am the kind of guy who needs to keep busy. With that being said I'm on my way now to look at a pretty nice 1986 VFR 750f. Pretty set on it so I joined up. Bike looks clean, owned by someone who cares and is not trashed to death. I realize that later years had much needed upgrades but a clean bike is my first priority. My GF bought me a motorcycle lift table for Christmas so I need to put something on it! My Hayabusa has been done for years. I'll be doing some reading here and will post pictures when I can. Merry Christmas! tt
Welcome aboard and Merry Christmas to you also! That's a nice gift to give yourself. Looking forward to seeing the pics.
Yeah, trying to upload now. I'll figure it out. Just got back so here are my thoughts. I did not expect to find a super clean VFR. It's all there but it needs a little work. 1) Plastics will need repainted and fixed where cracked. 2) Fork seals leaking. 3) Small stuff like tail light, rear turn signals etc. 4) Has a small dent in tank. 5) Hoses look fresh, wheel bearings changed and chain/sprockets look good. 6) Tires are fairly new. 7) Dead battery. 8) 53,000 plus on odo. 9) Jumps out of second gear. He forgot to bring the key (moving) so I could not here it run. Here are a few pictures. tt
its an 86 a700 then.........nice ecept for the tear in the seat... what did it set you back? more pictures would be nice.....
I did not purchase this yet. I'm counting on some feedback here and doing a lot of reading. Not sure if this is the one. He wants to sell but price is just way to high for what I think it needs. He was at $1900 then went to $1800 and now it's $1600. I'm sure he would take less. I figure $800. LOL! It needs some work which is not an issue but body work and paint ain't cheap. Add to that I haven't heard it run yet! tt
