Looking for the 2009 Black & White VFR 800

Pure luck... I had been looking at it on the net for ages and decided to go in to my local dealer just to ask about it and there it was...!!!

I gave the saleman a deposit then and there and went straight to the bank!!

Happy too

 

I really dig the all black 09, i especally like the black frame and forks, those look really trick.

 

Yes they are awesome! I have one too. I am located on the Gold coast Queensland They look the shitz in the flesh....

I have used the Comp werks fender eliminator and tossing between staintune pipes or Leo Vince. Here she is:



Just arived home with her

Fender done.... Looks as ugly as sin with the stock pipes lol.





Also have one of these coming from the US...should be here next week. Also booked in to do the front end..re valve and new springs for my weight.

So many more mods to do...but the $$$ slow me down lol.....

 

Kingsley forgot to mention that the Canadian bikes have a metric horn so you will have to have that changed to imperial sounds. BTW. Presently there is a brand new 09 skunk on the showroom floor at my local dealer in Chilliwack, BC

 

Try these links. The first is for Auto Trader in Ontario.
The second is for Ebay. Just what you want in colour complete with a tank cover. Yes there is a "u" in colour in Canada. Makes the colors more robust and able to withstand winter road salt.
The US dollar is not doing well against the CDN. See what we have to pay for six or seven months.

yeah i dont understand why you wouldnt just get the bike painted.
i had mine done last year when i first heard of that color scheme.
its kind of nice having a oem paint scheme that you never see in the states.

pictures for reference
with my hardbags on

without the hardbags on

 

Or you could be like a Scotsman and use electrical tape

 

Looks good Sammy!! That's 2 accounted for in aus
I have taken the pillion pegs off and pillion grab rails and it looks the goods, should have a tri colour bagster setup on Wednesday so I'll post a pic of what it looks like.. I'm still undecided between leo's or tunes.
I like the look of the black pipes hoblick but you have fallen short not having white rims !!

 

Thanks man! I ordered the Leo Vince Carbons....Due in about a week or so.....I looked at the tunes...i didn't think it would blend in right.So i purchased the Carbon Cans Also looking at getting a set of those Motad headers...PCV and the autotune. The suspension is getting sorted next wekk.All booked in and ready to go...

 

Well, I'm going to resurrect this thread...

The current colours available in Australia are officially listed as Sword Silver or Candy Glory Red. However...if you ask nicely (and wave lots of cash around) dealers can still get you a brand new white/black model.
I ordered mine on Tuesday.

 

That is a great color scheme. We never got it here in the US, but Canada did. How is it that your dealer can get it?

 

Honda Australia still has them in stock. (Or so I'm told.)

The funny thing is, most dealers don't have them and don't realise they can get them until they call Honda and ask. I know one dealer in the Sydney area who keeps ordering them in because people will travel from all over the State to get a "skunk".

 

I see a white and black VFR all the time.

 

When I ordered mine in June, I was told choice of either Silver or Red, Saleswomen said there was a wait for the Silver, but she said White & Black one available. Everyone loves the colour & it pulls looks & comments every where. My only gripe & be aware, the black paint on top of the tank is very soft, gets fine scratches very easily, it definitely needed a few more coats of clear. And its only the black on the tank, fine on other parts of the bike. Thought about getting a tank cover (like Bagstar), but who wants to cover that colour.
Dealership where I got it, ordered their own B&W to put on the floor.

 

That's good to know, Pacemaker. I might take mine straight to a local spraypainter and get a couple of extra clear coats put on.

 

My new bike has arrived!

 

Congrats mate, that Pearl White just don't come out in pics, but still looks great.
I could almost be jealous if I didn't already have one :wink:
