Long Beach Bike Show '07 VFR

SLOav8r · 12-11-2006, 12:03 AM

Jammed down to the LB Bike Show today and got a chance to get up close to the new VFR's. Kinda diggin the "new" colors.

And of course I had to see how it fit compared to my 5th Gen.

Oh they had that other color too... Walked by it 3 times before noticing, that's how stunning the RWB is compared to the Burgundy or Cabernet or whatever they're calling it.

Man I knew I should have gone!
Kids football practice came first, but next year is already on the blocked off.

Cool ... in Seattle we had to look from afar

And I believe you also got to see the tri-colored 1098 duke. Maybe I should move to Long Beach (did live there back in 1962 for a while ... I'll bet it's changed some).

What? they got to sit on it, No Fair! and What again! they got the Tri colored 1098? sheesh!

Wonder if thats the same RWB VFR they had up here?

March is a long ways off :(

Take heart, we often get some decent weather in February. :) This week, we'll need water wings, however ....
