    Almost unique to me. Wheels, Michelin tires, seat re-do and a Givi screen.

    Hmm, carbon fiber look pipe would look really nice!

    Loving the white wheels Bernie!

    What did you do to your seat? I'm thinking of modifying mine so I don't spend half my ride pushing back off the tank.

    Sounds like you need a seat like this one...[​IMG]

    I just had mine recovered locally. I did not like the resultant gap behind the tank so I stuck in some black closed cell foam as a tank protector..

    That looks great, every time I see a nice VFR in yellow it makes me want to change the colour on mine.
    Where did you get the lower VFR Interceptor stickers, or are they stock?

    I think they are stock. My red 2000 viffer came with those on it but I bought mine 2nd hand.

    Yellow 5th gen's are beautiful as new, but the white rims really add something... great looking bike!

    Bernie, for one that bike is beautiful, nice work. Two, how about the yellow trim on the seat, is that painted? That one small items is truly a great aesthetic as it breaks up the large amount of black on the seat. Genius.

    This bike is not listed on your profile. Did you sell the anniversary edition for this? It is too easy to confuse me so please don't do it on purpose.

    Zombie I just bought a lower left decal for my bike on partzilla. They had it in stock and the total cost was slightly less than Hondapartshouse.

    I still have the 2007 RWB and the white 1993 750. . The seat has been rebuilt that includes yellow piping and gel inserts.
