I sailed over from United States four years ago and and have been living primarily in Porto, Portugal for the last four years. I still maintain a home in the Hudson Valley, in New York. I have been riding for my entire life and motorcycling has always been an enduring love. I starting riding with a home made mini-bike at the age 14.  Most of my bikes have been either English or Italian. My first big bike was a 1958 Triumph Tiger T110 that I purchased while in high school, I still have the 1968 BSA Spitfire MK IV Special that I purchased new after getting out of the army.  In the late 90's and early 2000's I raced a 1995 Ducati 900SSSP, with an engine built by Eraldo Ferracci, in the Championship Cup Series.  In the fall of 2014, I left New York and spent five months touring Mexico, Baja and the West Coast of the USA, putting 15,000 miles in the process on my Triumph Tiger 800XC, I still have that great bike back in the states.

I have had my eye on VFR's for quite a long time and needed a bike that was both sporting and comfortable for blasting around the cities and countrysides of Europe.  Happily, I've found a very clean and unmolested '98 with only 14,000 km on the clock, that I think will fill the bill perfectly.
