It all started in Europe and the Mediterranean

[squirrelman]

OK, fellow VFR fans and you sophisticated, worldly Europeans.....

.....what country makes best OLIVE oil??
for everyday use?
and what's the best you've ever had??
any brand names you might mention??

(Best i ever tasted was labeled :"J. Plagnol, Marselles, France")

Safe and sanitary new year to all!

[eddie cap]

Sorry to interrupt, I'm from the U.S and I think its great that we have such a cross section of VFR'ers. I always like to know what types of aftremarket accessories and how you style your bikes over there compared to us guys in the states. VFR's are so versatile they truly are a world bike.I think this site is so very good due to inputs from around the world. Keep em commin guys. eddie

Good point,that is the reason why I sign up this forum,so many different ideas,solutions......
But VFR is the legend regardless the country.............

[pockrock]

My friend, you have launched a thread that potentially can blow up this particular forum.
I could tell who make best olive oil, wine, CHOChoLAT, but You'd better go to place where they sell it ORIGINAL and taste it yourself.

About the other inquiry: yes, Viffer has an intl value. Anyway here in Italy, the biggest market for supersport bikes in Europe, there is a big trend for....supersports. So u can generally find VFRs riden by persons who are generally more experienced, not so racing oriented and aftermarket products sold for this bike tend to cover items such as baggage rail, tyres, that can assure a more comfortable and long lasting ride. Its quite uncommon to see on VFRs aftermarket race cans, apart from me and few others.

[pockrock]

ah, Bertolli is strictly ITALIAN

Cyprus olive oil, toasted village bread, Zivania,

[Moby]

I'm in England...most of the time.

I'm up for any meeting of VFR owners in Europe next summer and the best olive oil comes from the Eastern Med and the Middle East.

There; that covers everything doesn't it?
