Forum CEO HispanicSlammer Posted January 10, 2022 Forum CEO Share Posted January 10, 2022 I was surprised to see so many of you donate at the new year to keep vfrd up and running, it put the budget over the top and I have some reserve for this year. Nothing has changed as far as I can see for the coming year, in terms of how much expenses are for VFRD, I found a better server last year and upgraded and it actually was slightly cheaper to run that the old one, but it performs much better. They even have a better backup system then the old server had, the automated routine is so much easier to managed, set it and forget it. I am amazed at how tech improves each year. Thanks for the many group rides, rallys, local events you have all done together in 2021, keep the rubber side down, stay safe and keep on riding - vfr or no vfr! I still have the Veefalo, last year I upgraded the suspension front and back, rebuilt the Ohlins and put in new fork cassettes that have both compression and rebound adjustment. It feels good, now this winter it will be time to change out the coolant, clean up the road grime, and do some maintenance. It needs new shoes, brake pads, and some extra lovin. I also picked up a 2008 KTM Superduke last May. A used KTM and spent alot of time fixing that up too. Now I can have my buddies fly in and ride with me on my spare bike. I have a little 150 Honda PCX too that I ride around town, its a hoot - its the perfect Urban assault vehicle/Grocery getter. I still love to ride motorcycles - and I love VFRD too. Too bad that pesky work thing keeps getting in the way! HA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VFR4Lee Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 I's good to see this forum just goes on and on and on. On and on and on. 😁 Don't know I will ever have another bike as long as I had the VFR, about 17 years. Rock on Miguel. 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweeper Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Started the year off great but now not so great!🤨 I'm off to do my part. If you haven't yet, now is a great time to donate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer St. Stephen Posted December 16, 2022 Member Contributer Share Posted December 16, 2022 Bump! Please donate to VFRD, even if it's only $5 or $10 USD. We're at <60% of the budget, a budget which is pretty tiny to begin with. Help Miguel keep this great site going. I've never spent much time on VFRWorld but It seems like it is experiencing significant down time, probably because whomever keeps it running does not have the resources needed. Miguel created and maintains VFRD (no ads!) for about $3K/year--and probably many, many hours of his free time. As anyone who visits even once a month can see, there are fewer and fewer folks here on average. Please help keep VFRD live and helpful by coughing up a few bucks. (yeah, Honda could help too by building another amazing V4...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
