I have Joined the Ranks!

Well,

I have just returned home form picking up a slightly used Red 2002 VFR... Man what a machine! Oh my head!

I answered an add on craigslist.com.. a 2002 with 6336 on the odometer... for $5000.00. I went and looked at it and this guy appologizes for it being a little dirty... Mild bug juice on headlights... pffft Wheels are perfect... Bar ends are perfect... not a scratch on the paint.... I looked at brake fluid and it's like new...

It almost seemed to good to be true.... 5000 is not that great a deal but it really is perfect... for me anyway...

I'll get pics soon as soon as the wether clears and I officially clean it... Does anyone know where to get a downloadable Owner's manual?

 

Nice job. I am looking forward to looking at some pictures.

 

I thought I was out of touch so I started looking on Craigslist to find out the going rate. $5000.00 sounds like a steal to me! Congratulations :thumb:

 

Jeez, call the cops...

 

Congrats man, that is a hell of a deal!
BTW, how does it handle in rain?

 

NICE BUY A STEAL FOR THE CONDITION YOU HAVE DESCRIBED,ENJOy!!

 

LOL you should know from what I have heard... LOL The set of metzlers on it handled the rain OK...Not exactly my ideal conditions... Rain on a twisty ride at night is really not as fun as a twisty ride during the day with no rain...

I was having more issues with my helmet fogging.... Foged helmet and oncoming headlights while going around a twisty.... yeesh....

 

Yea.... I decided to sove the fogging problem by leaving my visor open one notch. Then couldn't figure out why, no matter how many times I cleared my visor with my glove, I couldn't clear my vison! got to stop light, opened my visor and took off my glasses,....DOH!

Anyway, glad to hear you made it OK. And, as for the serious cleaning, if you weren't aware, the Honda polish is available at Best Ford on Amherst St. Great Stuff. But at $11 a can it better be.

 

What a fantastic buy!! enjoy your ride:biggrin:

Here are some manuals:

Congrats

 

Yeah I had found those... But I was looking for the "manual for the stupid" the thing that shows how to switch from odometer to trip and how to reset the clock?

There is also theis funny adjustment that I'm afraid to touch on the right hand side? What the hell is that thing? Is it an idle speed adjustment? WTF? My 85 used ot have adjustable suspension... How does one accomplish this?

AN owners manual would illuminate....
