vtwindr Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 50miles this morning, after the inital shock of coming from a Versys 1000, new rubber and a very alien position, confidence grew and I think I'm gonna like it anyone want to see some pics?

vtwindr Posted July 10, 2014 Author Share Posted July 10, 2014 16K (miles) for valves, 8K service intervals. The brake/ inspection at 4K which the CBF1000 has is not mentioned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyr Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Congratulations, love the pics. I am extremely jealous, ordered a red one at the end of may and still no sign of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtwindr Posted July 10, 2014 Author Share Posted July 10, 2014 they have a red one in Rochdale if you fancy it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattie660 Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Very nice. Are you going to wax it with AUTOGLYM ? My red one looks really nice after a carefull clean and wax finish. And I think it helps with making it easier to clean the dead bugs and road dirt off it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtwindr Posted July 10, 2014 Author Share Posted July 10, 2014 done already........but I do have a habit of using them all year round so don't ask for pictures at the end of winter :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighwayStar2009 Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Nice! Wheels look great! So, is it only the UK models with "VFR" on the upper fairing like previous models? I like the "VFR" emblems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatshoutybloke Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 That's where the US ones have 'Interceptor', a name Honda never used anywhere else, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vtwindr Posted July 17, 2014 Author Share Posted July 17, 2014 yeah, I'm not really great when it comes to washing bikes but that "muck" on the fairing is actually a puddle (It lashed it down here yesteday) reflected in the deep lustrous black metallic paint. Don't worry, it'll be dirty soon enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
