Looks like a great place for a ride. Amazing how much it resembles so much of the terrain in BC, Washington, Oregon, and California where I've toured. -

This is near Genoa Bay, BC, about 40 minutes from home. Yes, the rear wheel is very dirty.© Lorne Black

Terrific scenery, Dutchy, thanks for the photos. Sad to hear you've sold your SP2, though.

New paint. Graphics are history now.

2006 VFRs were available in all-white - was yours? Did you go with gloss white or is there some pearl in it as well? It looks great as-is so no need for the '06's oe graphics. -
Lovely photo with great colour. The bike ain't half bad either. -

Great evening light during the summer solstice, dramatic clues behind, and a shiny red bike in the foreground - what's not to like. Well done -
Hi Lorne, Thank you for your donation of --. We look forward to improving the forums with your donation. Thanks VFRDiscussion

Oh my, what a lovely scene - the bike ain't half bad either. With luck, and an end to the pandemic restrictions I hope to return to Cali next summer -
Like so many places along PCH this is one at which I've never stopped. Added to my 2022 wish list. The road can't be worse than Santa Rosa Creek or the west end of Nacimiento-Fergusson roads - can it? -

Great light and a lovely bike, but with a full moon you'd best keep an eye out for werewolves. -
Scenes like this remind me of why I love long road trips. -
Cool pairing. My 1st VFR was a red '91 VFR750 and my 2nd a red VFR800. I'm partial to gold ('91) or white ('98) wheels, tho -
So I might have done a thing......

There's only a few race-rep paint schemes that, to my eye, look good. Took me awhile, but I've come round on the Castrol graphics of your SP-2. And I always enjoy reading about your adventures aboard it. -

The gold cover looks ace, Rob, and the rest look good too. Pity they can't be on display all the time, but the fairings come in handy I suppose 😉 -

I love this photo, slo1. The red VFR stands out and the curves leading to the mountains make you want to jump on and GO! -
Really evocative shot, Convoy. One small change that'd make it even better, imho, is if your bike was just a little further away from the structures to its right side. -

That is a very pretty motorbike -
I recognize that spot - along a beach in Redwood NP, just north of Klamath. Surprisingly, I enjoyed nicer wx when I stopped there only a couple weeks after dadofseven. -
Love photos like this that show places I'd really like to ride. The swoop road reminds me of a spot on Montana's Hwy 78, looking south towards Red Bluff. -

Those two bikes make quite a pair. Back in 1993 I bought my first VFR, a '91 red w/gold wheels and grey seat. And soon after my pal Doug bought a red 907ie just like the one in your photo. An awful lot of water under the bridge since then. -
VFR 750 F (M) 1991 Italian Red, Very Red

Not too shabby for a 30 year old bike 😉 Love the Euro graphics, too -

Fall colours and a red VFR, with left exit exhaust no less, makes for a great photo. -
Last time I was on this road it was ~4:00 in the morning. There were about a bazillion stars in the sky but I was too cold to stop and enjoy 'em. I'd spent a chilly night on the side of the road a few miles east after finding there was nary a room to be had in Blanding. Fortunately, dawn had come as I neared Hanksville - time for coffee. -

A very pleasant 1st of November made for a great photo opportunity at Victoria's Inner Harbour© Lorne Black
