Hello all. I just bought an 02 VFR Vtec to see if it fits better than my 02 Yamaha R6. Lately I have been going on longer and longer rides and am getting tired of the "burning shoulders" sensation and my girl complaining of "burning buns." :wink: I pick it up next weekend for a 3.5 hour ride back to Albuquerque so I will have a pretty good idea by then. Still, I am pretty damn excited to get my hands on that bike regardless. I love the R6 but I have been moving more towards an all around commuter/twisty fiend and the VFR seems to be in a class all on its own when compared to what is out there.
Hi vanion and welcome to the group. I think you will be more comfortable on the viffer than on the R6. The ergos are pretty good, tho some people want a little more sitting up position and put on bar risers. The VFR is a great choice (if not the best) for all around commuting/twisty riding.
Smart man.. good to see ya know whats good for ya yea r6 is a back yard twistie bike but the VFR will out ride it all day long. Have Fun now.
it sounds like it will fit what you are looking for very well. conrgrats on your purchase. my wife raides with me all day long with only minimimal complaining of sore butt.
