timmythecop Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 I am now officially in the club. What club? I dunno, but I have a VF500F. 1984 and its a runner! Paid a dollar a cc and I think I love it. This may change, lets hope it stays in the honeymoon stage. Worldwide domination through amassing V4s!!!!

NakedViffer Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 When I very first glanced at this, I thought you had painted the Seca RWB, hahah. Is it time for some flat black creativity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEBSPEED Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 If it didn't have any rust, Timmy wouldn't own it. I'm waiting for the back to back to back Seca/VF/VFR ride report... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KanadianKen Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 I want to ride that on 129....... In May. This year. Then I want to buy this for my son. Well done Timmy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer CornerCarver Posted March 24, 2013 Member Contributer Share Posted March 24, 2013 Let me what I got in the way of matching plastics that I can part with...I may have something that matches the tail/side pieces and we can work something out. I am slowly talking myself into the idea of giving up the lockhart full front fairing with pristine matching plastics and solo rear seat cowl even though I have only seen three of those rear cowls in the flesh in 25 years... We would of course need to have something notarized with regards to any flat black spray bombs and mandatory 75 meter restraining order... ps, if Yoshi doesn't pick up his new track bike soon I know where you can get a great set of wheels and shock to make this lil 500 handle like a dream. Haitian or Philipines color correct... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer JeffInFranklinTN Posted March 24, 2013 Member Contributer Share Posted March 24, 2013 Nooooo, don't you dare paint that bike flat black. Be patient, you will find the matching parts it needs. Original paint is worth MORE too. These little 500's are great for tight twisty roads...just no top end....none....nada....zilch. lol When I very first glanced at this, I thought you had painted the Seca RWB, hahah.

Member Contributer CornerCarver Posted March 24, 2013 Member Contributer Share Posted March 24, 2013 not entirely true, when I weighed about 158 I topped one out at 124 mph ... today the 25 year old engine rings/valves combined with 25 years of onion rings would probably limit me to bouncing up against the ton and struggling to punch through 110 but so much fun in the twisty bits.

Roebling3 Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 And you did that without a gun, Jesse? Nice indeed. Among my clutter is its' 1/2 brother; a VTR 2 fiddy. We call them BarbieCeptors here. If it were matte black maybe it wouldn't be so girlie looking. Good fortune, R3~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer Polarbear Posted March 24, 2013 Member Contributer Share Posted March 24, 2013 Nice!!! But between you and Skuuter, my god!!! Does this mean you're selling your Seca??? Can I interest you in flat black?? C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmythecop Posted March 24, 2013 Author Share Posted March 24, 2013 when I finally get the Seca running correctly, I am going to ride it back and forth to work until it explodes. I am going to un-ass my Guzzi though. Anyone want an Italian project? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
