Good Evening

Good Evening All;

Been lurking on the site for a while. I have not yet purchased my VFR. I am coming over from the "dark side", having ridden Harley's for the past few years.

I am selling the Harley soon and plan to purchase an 08' silver w/ABS.

Very enjoyable and informative site.

I look forward to exchanging info with all.

Phuqet

Welcome.
Your impressions in moving from heavy cruiser to sport/sport-tourer will be looked forward to.

Enjoy!

Your input will be of value!

Hey Phuqet, Im a new guy here as well. I also come from the HD side of things, but I kept my Road Glide and bought my 06 VFR a couple weeks ago. I havent got to really ride it yet as its still too cold and salty up here in Ohio but Im looking forward to getting her out. In the meantime Ive got a fender eliminator and hardbags to put on so at least i can tinker with it in the garage. Im guessing we are going to be very happy with the bikes. We will definetly have to give our impressions of the bike compared to our HDs. Totally different bikes with totally different purposes to me.

Welcome from the dark side you'll have fun, and remember if you have any tire, oil or what ever questions, just ask away, I'm sure some one would be more than happy to answer.
