Greetings from the UK!
I'm not sure if many of you here will still remember me, I was pleasantly surprised that my account is still active after a 4 year absence! I'm a long time VFR fanatic owning several 6th and 5th gens throughout the years (I sound old but I'm only 32 but I ride A LOT). I bought an 07 Blackbird about 4 years ago and loved it (apart from the fact it was an inline 4 and not a beautifully charismatic, off beat growling V4)!
Anyway I was lucky enough to be accepted on a masters to study Music Therapy which meant parting ways with my beloved Blackbird; Fast forward 10 months without a bike (which has been the longest I've been off 2 wheels since I was 17) and the Spring weather here in the UK coupled with finishing my first year got to me. After a little hunting I stumbled across this little beauty..
Ladies and gents, meet my new bike - In stunning red, my 99 VFR, 26k miles, high rise Remus can, heated grips, touring screen, bar extenders and rack (with 3 Givi boxes) all for just £1600. That, as you well know is a hell of a lot of sports touring goodness for that price.
So far I love it every bit as much as my Blackbird which cost me triple this gorgeous machine!
Anyway that's me and my new bike, ride safe!
Cheers,
Steve
