    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 our happy home Phuqet! Is that your real name or your username? Hope you make the "right" choice soon!

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

    Enjoy!

    welcome and enjoy the recent thread of Who Hates Harleys?

    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,

    & I say keep the Harley & get the VFR because of 2 different riding styles & people

    Best of both worlds & As to why I kept mine
    1ST GEN: THE BEGINING OF GREATNESS
    2ND GEN: THE CONTINUED DREAM
    3RD GEN: MASTERMIND OF FUN
    4TH GEN: RUNNING ON SUCCESS
    5TH GEN: LAST OF THE TRUE VFR'S
    6TH GEN: V-Tec = BEGINING DEMISE OF A ONCE GOOD THING (why I also own a 06 Sprint ST)

    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.

    Awe. the best way to get around.
