After a few days with guests in my home, bad weather and no free time at all, I saw at Sunday thay Monday is going to be very sunny. With no clouds at all. Prepared myself for a ride to work and back and then, Monday morning, zero degrees Celsius, with some frost on the roada! I could not believe it. Qwnt with the car and after a few hours, sun was so high uo, I felt like I was on summer holiday. After work, first thing was to sit on my "Red" and go for a drive. And it was such a joy... There I made some more photos and I would like to hear some opinions, thoughts, ideas or even something else about it because I'll drive her next week to mechanic to change all fluids. And, if there is something else to think or worry about, I can use that time with him. Sorry for a little bit longer post, here are the photos.

Well, I am glad that you like those times. This is the one which was called so: AMG 300SEL 6.8

I see, my mistake. I wrote it in bed after a whole day ride home with cold and windy weather. I'll change it to 6th. And thank you for the compliments.

Search is over. I found one for me. First, "Rote Sau" would literaly be something like Red sow, like a big female pig, or even a swine, but it has some deeper meaning for me. I like Mercedes and "Rote Sau" is a nickname for a very successful model from a Mercedes racing history. I find it somehow ok, it suits her good. Sixth generation, 2005. with 56000 kilometers, Hondas original cases and very nice service history. Tires are from last season, same.as battery, chain set from DID is one thousand kilometers old. It was changed togwther with valve adjustment. Front fork is also serviced and all that I have to do is to change all liquids. Not that I need to but because I want to. Just to be sure. And check if the chain sits nice. Everything else is pretty much unchanged serial bike. And the most important thing, I like her.

Hello and welcome.

Thank you all for replying. Now I can better prepare myself for the test drive and what to look for.

Thank you very much. This is a big point.

Vielen Dank.

If you come to Dortmund again ;). You're welcome.

Well @MaxSwell you made me think about it. Again. 😒 But in a good way. Thank you. I have one request more. Is there any way to get some information what should I watch out for? There are some general things to look for, of course, but are there any special thing with this VFR800 to be checked during first test drive, before buying it? Any special sounds, unusal movements for example...? Or such a topic already exists here, on forum? If it is so, I apologize in advance.

Thank you all. Yes, riding is a better term, I'll try to keep it in mind. It is a little bit cold in Germany, so I beg you all for patience for those photos. But now, seriously, why is the fifth generation the best one? I must say that the sixth one looks somehow nicer with those exhaust pipes under tail. Or it was just a joke and there is no "bad" or "better" generation at all?

Hi all, to be precise, Dortmund area. At the moment I am not driving any motorcycle but I am currently in a search phase for a VFR800 RC46 after a drove one from a colleague at work. I've heard a lot of nice words about this forum so I hope that I'll blend in without any knowledge.
