Now those are some treasures! Got a new grand daughter that took about 1 second to steal my heart! Enjoy them....they grow up fast!! -
Beautiful pics!! I want to go to Norway. My family tree is rooted there. -
WOW..... :fing02: I need to get "out"...... :fing02: -
Disappointing junk? Really? I would call it heavy for sure. To me disappointing junk is thousands of rear drive failures and said manufacturers refusal to step up. Absolutely. I would call a VFR wheel just what I did. Look at the sloppy casting inside the visible spokes. Feel the heaviness, the cheap fragile factory paint. As for BMW, I don't know what this has to do with custom wheels other than BMW makes better and lighter wheels than Honda. As far as driveline failures, I've owned two BMW's rode the sh-t out of them with no failures of any kind. More than I can say for my two Hondas. As far as not backing them up, my dealer, which is a large one, backed up all TWO failures that went into their shop. I would be willing the bet any amount that VFR's alone have more electrical issues that Honda doesn't back up than BMW has of any one kind of problem. 3 cents....over and out on this crap..... :biggrin:

When you make a LIGHTER VFR wheel, you'll have a complete job. VFR wheels are incredibly heavy. Go pick up a BMW cast wheel of the same diameter and width. Stock VFR wheels are disappointing junk, IMO.

Looks like an awesome trip!!! Nice place to cover some miles. -
VERY NICE!! Now why doesn't Honda offer simple but cool paint jobs??? :happy: -
Outstanding paint scheme!! And this is coming from someone that doesn't usually like white on a bike.... :happy: -
Purvis, I still don't understand why you wouldn't stop at CROT with that shirt on.... :blink: Well, if you had, you might not still be alive. I think they call that "Harley Bait"...... :laugh: -
Nice pics!! But you're still crotch rocket trash...... :goofy: Be proud to join ya soon anyway..... :wheel: :angry: -
I always thought the internet was the bowels of evil. Alabama just made it legal to carry a concealed weapon on the internet.... :blink: Why not just use a Honda oil filter? Yep, they cost a little more but Honda just MIGHT know what they're doing now and then.... :biggrin: I use them and, for some reason, my Honda runs just fine. :pissed:

I'd love to see Palo Duro. Been close but didn't stop. It was the place where the Army finally cornered the last of the Commanches I believe. Nice pics!! -
Beautiful specimen. Hang on to that one! :fing02: -
That is so cool!! I've always wanted to see the redwoods. They won't grow here.... :fing02: -
Very nice shot! :fing02: Now I understand why the edges of my tires wear down too..... :fing02: -
No. It's a bad idea to let any kind of vehicle be up your azz when you need to brake hard. I keep all of them well behind me ALL the time.

BEAUTIFUL bike!!! I want it!! :dry: :dry: -
Too bad we just didn't have a 7th gear :rolleyes: a slab only gear, for those runs to and from the twisties, easy way to up the mileage I didn't know people used 6th gear..... :ph34r: :laugh: :ph34r:
-
I guess we're all different but I always know what gear I'm in because I can't afford a mistake the way I take corners... :ph34r:
-
Took the words right out of my mouth. A VFR is an easy bike to tell which gear it's in.

You don't make IED's do you?? :blink: Wouldn't put it past Dale.... :ph34r: :cool:
-
Wow!! Nice pics and trip!! How many miles on her now?? Reminds me of my goal. I want to completely wear out a bike until there's nothing left worth fixing, then look at it and say, "It's been a really great ride!" :wheel: -
You mean ALL those VFRs had to be push started in your driveway!!?? :beer: -
NP tickets don't stay there! There is a Central Violations Bureau in San Antonio where all citations are sent to be forwarded to your home state. Ask me how I know. That said, I have a "friend" that can get me out of Federal tickets, and did, which isn't easy to do. -
Beautiful pics. The area looks familiar. Rode from Aspen up to the summit and back down on a bicycle once....just not lately. Pretty much takes care of a day...and the next day....
