New VFR owner in southern CA

Chuckman49 · 11-01-2008, 08:24 AM

Hello all!! My name is Chuck and I just bought an 05 Honda VFR! It's friggin beautiful! I haven't ridden since high school (except off-road) and am eager to get some riding time in. I just signed up last night for the motorcycle safety course, which I also took in hight school. Now, I'm 36, that was an eternity ago, and I've been feeling the need lately to ride again. Is this the beginning of a mid-life crisis?? Who knows! Who cares! It feels damn good cruisin' down the street on my VFR! Anyway, I'm in Riverside, CA feel free to e-mail me...

Welcome aboard, Chuck. You have come to the right place. It also sounds like you are off to a good re-start. There are tons of members in California, half of which are not very far from you.
There are a bunch of goof balls here, we like to have fun. If you have a serious question, though, feel free to ask. There is hundreds of years of combined experience at your finger tips.
The greatest tool available is the search function located just below and to the right of the tool bar above. Answers to questions about oil, tires, accessories(mods), top speed, good roads, group rides, and much much more.

I did want to get a fender eliminator kit. Any suggestions?? Don't need anything fancy but I do want it to look cool! Price is definitely a deciding factor also. My bike is totally stock except for the heli bars.

Type 'fender eliminator' in the search box above and you will get quite a few threads to look through. They are filled with the good, the bad, and the ugly. Happy surfing.
