I'm very happy with Traxxion and what they did for my 97. It made me wonder why the heck I din't do it long ago since it made the bike feel soooooooooo much better. They really do know how to do it. As for how much it set me back. I don't recall honestly around $1,000 maybe. I just gave my card # and never looked back. I tried to get discounts and they only offerd a slight one. I found my own F3 Forks and sent them compleat with my 97 forks and they did all the work. I only had to tell them how I ride,the kind of roads I ride on and how much I tip the scales at. If you have not done the rear shock yet...do it ASAP. It all so makes the biek feel soooooO much better.

Bsd43, Did you bother to check teh website link I left for Color Rite? It has a OEM paint listing for just about every bike made.

FYI Color Rite has a pretty good website on finding the paint to match your OEM colors and how to aply them. http://www.color-rite.com/CRPLmanYear.php?...23434d81689e7cf

I need to get my Corbin Suggler repaited to match my OEM red on my 97. I don't have intrest in doing it myself cause I know I will mess it up or not be happy with my work. I have been trying to find a place that can do a good job. If anyone has one please post. The red it is painted now is not a exact match and the paint does not look as good as the OEM...not that I expect perfect.

I have thought about a newer bike. When I look at them though I can't find one I like as much as my 97 VFR. Some odd way I have allways loved the 94-97's the way they look,sound,feel,ride. I do like trying to make them even better oddly enough also.

I had my forks redone the easy way by Traxxion Dynamics http://www.traxxion.com/about.shtml With the F3 tops and my original VFR bottoms. Makes the bike ride soooo much better and feels safer in conners. ?If I was going to do it again. I would use VTR bottom forks insted of the VFR so I could easily upgrade my brakes to better ones. ?Some of the guys on the VFR websites in europe use RC51 forks brakes, tripples,wheel (intire front end) for the best results.
