In what amounts to a complete shock, I saw a yellow Y2K in Bordentown, NJ today. The rider was heading north on US RT 206 about 1 mile south of I195. I was heading south on US RT 206.

This is the 1st VFR I've seen in NJ in probably 4 years.

KC-10 FE out...

I, on my yellow viffer, was shocked as well today as I saw a red 6th gen rolling through Susanville in the midst of a gaggle of cruisers. I was on my way to a call so I could not stop and chat.

Many VFR's

I saw many VFR's this weekend at MotoGP in Indy. Most of the were parked outside the track.

One (Yellow) in a driveway outside the Track Park at someones house with a Vstorm, and a couple other bikes.

Had a great time at the track this weekend, MotoGP is really cool, first motorcycle race I have ever seen, had a blast.

SF Bay Area Sighting

Saw another Silver 6th Gen this time with stock exhaust. Guy was wearing black and wearing a backpack. He passed me at the toll plaza at the Bay Bridge in Oakland, CA. We then lane split all the way down 80 into El Cerrito. I was the guy with the loud a$$ exhaust who passed you in Emeryville... Are you out there?

On Sunday, September 21, saw a YELLOW VFR heading eastbound on route 46 in Budd Lake, New Jersey at the intersection of Rt. 46 and Smithtown Road. He was with 2 other bikes - a BMW and not sure about the 3rd.

Well, I saw some guy on a red 4 gen, in Ocean Beach (SD, CA) Saturday 7/12/08 around 2pm dressed in only tank top, shorts, and flops. Needless to say, I did not feel the urge to leave him a VFRW card.

Update: Thanks for the posts folks. If possible, try and put the location, time/date so that other folks might know if that was them that you saw. Thank ya, thank ya very much, thank ya!

About once a week I see a red 5/6th gen bike going north on 805 in Kearny Mesa as Im coming south, in the afternoon. My hours are kinda hit & miss, but it seems to be right about 3:00 or so.

While I have seen a number of VFR's here in Tucson I finally had my first official "Catch and Release." I was headed N on Campbell in my truck on Sept 18 after picking up a good bottle of Sake for my camping trip and HEARD a great sound that was coming from a 1996 red VFR. I followed him into a parking lot and chatted with him. He was 20-something, a student and part-time restaurant server. I forgot his screen name but he said he used to contribute here. He spends most of his time on the local sportrider website. It was neat to talk to a fellow owner about various things like painting his bike. Nice kid.

Saw a white 6th gen with hard bags pass me on my FZ6 in Deals Gap on Sunday 9/21 right as it was getting dark. I had seen him in Robbinsville, and when they pulled over to wait for their buddies, I stopped and talked to them. The guy on the FZ6 was very interested in mine since it was naked and he was thinking of going that route.

I just saw a 4th gen rolling through Susanville with soft bags next to a BMW.
Why is it always when I'm going the other way on a mission?
I'd love to get these folks to sign up here if I could stop and talk.

Went for a little stroll today. Logged about 185 miles and saw two viffers riding around San Diego County, CA.

First sighting....a 2007 RWB 6th gen, going down Banner Grade on the 78, coming from Julian. 9:45am 9/28/08.

Second sighting.....a yellow 5th gen. I saw you riding with a pack of bikes on the 78 a few miles south of Santa Ysabel around 10:15am 9/28/08



Couple pics from my cell on my journey down into the desert!
