hoodoshnik Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Hey folks, I 've wanted a VFR since the 90's when I first saw one. Had a bunch of bikes since then, but finally, last month - I brought this one home... 2007 RWB with 13k on the clock. Came with the hard bags, but they are off now. Today it finally got above 20 here in Maine so I shoveled out the shelterking and started her up. What a nice sound ! Man, I cant wait for some of this snow to melt! Thanks for the site - Ive learned a lot. been reading here a little every day and I look forward to talking with you guys. Colin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoodoshnik Posted March 8, 2015 Author Share Posted March 8, 2015 Hey Switchblade, Thanks! Shelter King makes these hoop frame instant sheds. They are only 500$ and if you get the half-round style like this, they are very, very strong and wind/snow proof. Mine had almost 3 feet of snow on it last month and its 7 years old... the gable style ones with the vertical side walls dont hold up nearly as well. only downside is that they tend to trap moisture, and during the winter you will get a lot of frost on stuff stored inside, as the sun heats them up and the humid air hits the still cold metal. So, they definitely arent as good for storing vehicles or tools as a garage... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VFR4Lee Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 The RWB color scheme is my favorite. Welcome Hoodoshnik. The Shelter King seems to be upstaging the bike. Got me thinking where could I put one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
