  1. Welcome, Woland, you'll find there's a lot of maintenance info, travel guides, and photos here at VFRD. And the downloads section has pdfs of owners & service manuals for your VFR.
  2. I'd add that with yellow 5th gens Honda struggled to match the different fairing panels. The side fairings on my yellow '99 were noticeably lighter than the the front cowl and the fuel tank. That is a lovely set of M68 wheels, just like the set on my '06 325Ci. Though mine look like the 'before' photo.

    Great photo, slo1. Shiny VFR on a backroad on a brilliant sunshiny autumn day..
  4. You've done a lot of work so far, Lucca. But now I'm feeling guilty about how much maintenance my VFR needs.
  5. More like damp & dreary in my neck of the woods, but I appreciate the thought and hope you had an enjoyable ride. Cal128 is a favourite route back to the coast when I’m homeward bound. Hilly and twisty through oak meadows near 101, before cooling down in the coastal forest. Funny, I don’t think I’ve ever stopped in Philo or Boonville. Anyone else notice that some roads are enjoyable to ride either way but somehow one direction just feels more natural.
  6. I often wish I'd kept the bike it would fit
  7. Ok, I'll give it a go, pic is 1600px on the long axis and pasted in as rich text. This was a younger slimmer me at the 1993 Vancouver motorcycle show. White '93 VFRs were very tempting and very not-red, but I ended up with a low mileage 2nd hand '91 VFR instead. Red, of course.
  8. That's a lot of classic bikes & parts. The three bikes that I like are the Rickman Triumph, the Ducati 450, and the Moto Morini 3 1/2.
  9. Hi Lorne, Thank you for your donation of 50.00 USD. We look forward to improving the forums with your donation. Thanks VFRDiscussion

    Yes indeed, great bike, great scenery, great road. Well done, Keny
  11. It's a Christmas miracle. Looking forward to reading about your adventures on the yellow peril.
  12. Ooh, inquiring minds want to know 😉 Looking forward to your verdict, and some pics of the test ride.
  13. D'oh! A few days after your's was my 20th, which I also missed. Though I wasn't active the whole time when I dropped out. Many thanks to Miguel for creating & maintaining this little playground for us.
  14. Michelin Pilot Roads are great tires for most VFRs. Choose the Road 6 as the GT version is intended for heavier bikes than your VFR750.
  15. White '93 VFRs really do stand out. I like the look of my '09 a lot, but the '93 is even nicer.
