Not sure how I feel about it yet, need to think about it a bit :idea3: Custom VFR EBay Looks like auction has ended??? The bike looks fantastic. Would prefer clip-ons myself. More cafe racer style. Bet is rides very well indeed! :beer: :lurk: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer thereisnospoon Posted October 20, 2010 Member Contributer Share Posted October 20, 2010 I would rather he started with a wreck... but I like the changes... the exhaust is interesting (although maybe not as efficient as factory), the chopped tail... curious what it weighs now?

Member Contributer oyama Posted October 20, 2010 Member Contributer Share Posted October 20, 2010 Hmm, I am not saying it is pretty but it definitely is not ugly. It seems nicely done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beck Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Like most of what I see on the bike, considering it's a "streetfighter".............except for that stupid looking seat that shaped like a slice of wonder bread. You figure so much work and thinking was done all over that bike, but the seat looks like an afterthought :blink: .....blehhh.....

For that money there are more pretty solutions Its still a light VFR, should be good fun project Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Rice Posted October 21, 2010 Member Contributer Share Posted October 21, 2010 The seat can use a redesign, but otherwise it looks like labor of love. I like it a lot and apreciate the amount of effort that went into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer gll429 Posted October 21, 2010 Member Contributer Share Posted October 21, 2010 its over priced for a stripped down bike with a new front end. :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monk Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 I likey.... The only thing I'd change would be the seat and headlights. For everyone that's been talking about wanting a neat chainguard, This is the coolest one ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer blkrabit Posted October 21, 2010 Member Contributer Share Posted October 21, 2010 Speed Triple style headlights would be nice. +1 on the seat change; something slightly thicker and curvier to compliment the tank. Otherwise, I think it's pretty swanky. That 'subframe' doesn't look like it'd hold anyone > 200 lbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer dutchinterceptor Posted October 21, 2010 Member Contributer Share Posted October 21, 2010 Looks pretty sweet to me. They got creative with the rear fender mounts and the seat could certainly use some work. :fing02: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer carlitos92 Posted October 21, 2010 Member Contributer Share Posted October 21, 2010 Well, I guess it takes all kinds... This is not one of them. :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer ECHO Posted October 21, 2010 Member Contributer Share Posted October 21, 2010 I wouldn't kick it out of my garage :biggrin:, but the I agree the headlights and seat are not up to my liking either and give the guy credit for making something unique out of an already unique bike.

keny Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 I've seen this before somewhere... Yes this 4th gen has been posted here on VFRD before. Deffenly diffrent, if you like a extrem diffrent bike its cool, but not a bike I would buy or build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEBSPEED Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 I like the idea of building a V4 streetfighter, but I can think of a number of things I would do differently... hmm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer flavadave Posted October 21, 2010 Member Contributer Share Posted October 21, 2010 Food for the brain. My ex-wife once washed and waxed my bike. Sounds great until I felt the Armor All on the seat. :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimC Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Looks like VFR meets Confederate Motorcycle. :laugh: I'm normally not a fan of stripped down streetfighters, but I kind of like this one - esp. the front end. Seat could be done better tho IMO, and I'd rather see a small pair of round headlights, stacked or side-by-side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer vanion2 Posted October 21, 2010 Member Contributer Share Posted October 21, 2010 Just not feeling it. Looks like it would be too much work to keep clean, don't care for the exhaust, head lights, seat, cheap turn signals just to name a few. Sort of makes me think of a skinny man with a big pot belly. :blink: But it does look like a lot of effort went into this and it is nice and clean. :fing02: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Burns Posted October 21, 2010 Member Contributer Share Posted October 21, 2010 hit and miss w/ me.. mostly I like it, but like Tim said, the seat. Why does it always seem like the seat is an after thought for the street fighters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
