    Beautiful bike. That is exactly what I learned to ride on. A buddy w/o a car traded me for 3 days and I was hooked.

    Dramatic coastline - nice shot! On the weather, my brother that lives over there was living in Portland Oregon and hated the weather....so he moved to Ireland!!??
  3. OK, I'll say it... All that moto-gear and jeans? Yes, I'm the VFRD safety nanny.

    Back in '85, I "learned" to ride on a buddy's red/white '83 VF750 and went out just a few months later and bought my first motorcycle, this '85 VF700F. Many, many great memories on this bike. Unfortunately, my next door neighbor totaled it by flipping it end over end demolishing the front fairing and crushing the rear frame onto the wheel. Three VFs later, I'm still in love with the family.

  7. That makes TWO clear clutch covers featured in a row! I prefer the black over the blue pic. Very nice.

    WOW! That 4th gen makes me miss mine more than ever. Ten years on one bike created so many fantastic memories. I hope addicted2tc is loving it the way I did.
  10. Can you not angle your bike just enough to pass through the gate and wiggle one mirror though, then the other?
  11. This may sound a bit odd but as long as I'm not in traffic, I enjoy a good rain ride. You have to dial it back some but I enjoy it none the less. Great color too!
  12. NOPE, I'm talking about the red ones on bike in the background.
  13. Those red rim stripes really show up!

    I've seen/heard a lot of colors called "Candy Apple Red" but this is the closest thing I've ever seen to a real candy apple. Love it.

  19. Clearly a "step-thru" scooter style. - Not flaming, just observing.
  20. Nice fab work but yes, drop the tail about 8 inches...

    The front half looks like a brand new Yama-cati. The rear looks like a time machine to 20 years ago. Somehow, strangely, that works!

    Honda could sell a lot more VFRs if they used this shot! That makes me want to gear up and ride that road right now.
  23. Now just add another one sticking out of the saddle bags!
