2006 VFRs were available in all-white - was yours? Did you go with gloss white or is there some pearl in it as well?

 

It looks great as-is so no need for the '06's  oe graphics.

This is the second time I have repainted the bike. Both times with the OEM Sunbeam White, which I think is the name of that colour. And yes, it has pearl. The first repaint was partially covered with a one off wrap. But I crashed in Baja in 2018 and caused some damage. The paint was showing its age again. So back to the paint shop and repainted again for the second time with the same white with the pearl. This bike has over 226,000 km on it. That may help you understand why it may need repainting. I also rode if commuting through the winter too..

top quality photo shot, the lighting is perfect.

Thank you SQ. Mother nature helped out with the light. I think that was taken just after noon on a clear day in February. Not often we get such days in Febriary here on the Wet coast of Canuckistan.

Looks like Fraser valley/chilliwack./abbotsford vicinity?

Yes it is. Mount Cheam in the back ground. I was just east of main stream Shittywack on the north side of the freeway. A rare clear sunny day in February.
