lancruza Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 I bought my 2nd VFR today. I had a 96 VFR750 about 15 years ago and today I picked up a 99 1-owner, pretty clean with all the maintenance records since new. 12 hour road trip today to go and get her. It also, came with the original exhaust, original handlebars, original mirrors, and a Ventura rack system and top bag. Gonna be fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jangermann Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 It looks like new. Congratulation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer interceptor69 Posted August 21, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted August 21, 2017 a beauty for sure-looks just like my '98, only fresher and newer. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Dutchy Posted August 21, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted August 21, 2017 And in the fastest color too!!! Could have done with bigger NACA ducts, but hey, CONGRATULATIONS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick1 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Congrats! Got the seat and heli already. Which are the two things I added (so far) to help with the longer rides. Does it come with modded suspension as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montelius Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Beautiful! Looks new, how many miles are on her? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lancruza Posted August 22, 2017 Author Share Posted August 22, 2017 46k miles. You'd never know it by the looks of the bike. Valve checks done at 16k and 32k with no adjustment needed. She'll need tires before too much longer. That gear driven whine is addictive. Here's a couple more pic's. I think she's purdy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samuelx Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Definitely purdy, definitely! She don't look 46, that's for sure!!! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon28 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Congrats great looking bike! I love the following our bikes have. Now spend some $$$ and get the Daughtry motorsports suspension (upgrade!) you will be amazed how much potential this (and really any bike) has with a good suspension and tuning. And do those valve checks :) 53k and I had 12 out (tight). Happy riding! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer MooseMoose Posted September 3, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted September 3, 2017 Lovely. Whoever owned it kept it immaculately. That's as pretty as it gets for 18 years old and ridden. That's the can I've got on my '91 -- two brothers oval aluminum. Great sound, nice and light, and not too loud at idle. I've got the split sergeant seat, too. Do you have the rear cowl? I rigged mine with the quick release bolts and use the space as a trunk -- just enough space for a book, some water, and a few small sundries in addition to the toolkit and a tire gauge. I didn't understand it at first, but now I absolutely love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't understand it at first, but now I absolutely love it. Thanks, the bike was definitely well cared for. The PO also gave me the original exhaust, original mirrors, and yes, the rear cowl. I'm currently using a cargo net on the rear seat. It allows me to carry quite a few items. It will hold a large pizza, no problem, LOL. My rear cowl is like new. As many errands as I run on the bike, I'm afraid to put on the rear cowl because it will probably get scratched up. I never ride with a passenger. The slightly concave surface of the rear seat makes it great to help hold items in place under the cargo net. I would really like to have an extra rear Seargent seat that I could experiment with. Possibly removing most of the underseat area to create more storage capacity under the seat. Luvin' the bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
