Favorite VFR Color

[michael]

What is your favorite VFR color?

[falcon186]

My VFR800 is red, but all VFR owner's whatever color is cool....

[seadooloo]

Mine's red. Of course I like the red. But nothing beats the red, white and blue's of the RC30. RC45 also. Therefore, I voted red white and blue.

[RVFR]

All are good, of course Red is the faster one, But like them all in that special way. Dang thou that 06 white is pretty nice

Gotta love the Crystal Pearl White and the Pearl White.

Am I being biased? lol

Pearl Yellow. I got the only one I know of within 50 miles of my house.

KC-10 FE out...

Mine is a mix of red/white & blue & pearl white panels, along w/ a little black unpainted abs @ the moment. I have always liked the dark blue & gray though, when I get mine painted over this winter it will be dark blue metallic w/ flat black powder coat rims & maybe frame. It will also have a custom air brushed windscreen of a skeleton pirate @ the wheel of a ship & air brushed pirate flags on the lowers. Either SS Interceptor or Interceptor SS decals on the tail haven't decided yet. The boys in the crew have always thought of themselves as pirates, so I'm going to build the theme bike.

FWIW, White Wheels ae a major plus in my book ,Hmm, is it time for a custom paint job?.

Absolutley neccesary; not 100% sure on the rims/frame yet. My other idea was to just reverse the color scheme of the orignal paint. Blue base coat w/ red & white stripes, being that I will be painting it myself w/ the aid of the bodyshop @ work a single base color works better for me. One of the young mechanics I work w/ is a aspiring air brush artist & has offered to do the air brush work for little or nothing for the exposure. The rims I can pretty much do what ever color I want as I have my own powder coating equipment. The frame is to large for my current oven though, I my just polish it or if I come across a financial windfall maybe have it chromed or nickle plated. I have a hard time returning anything back to stock, that is why I own a 60 f100 truck that will out perform most corvettes in a straight line & in the twisties when it is completed. I'm going for the race car w/ a box thing

Hey man, I like this dude, my kinda guy, yea know whats ya mean. I have a 72 chev BBC goes like stink... kinda fun to blow the doors off some new car huh? then there was my 65 Chev, now that baby was a hoot to drive, 5000lb truck turned a 14 flat quarter mile, not to bad in my book.
Just keep us informed in the way of photos. Been thinking of doing a one of on my VFR, but it's all in my head at the moment and the wish list is long, but boy it' would be a nice one thou..

[tbones86]

I hear you on the wish list thing, progress has been slow on alot of my projects, the VFR will probably be the first thing completed. Then I have to fix the sled just in case we actually get enough snow in Wisconsin to use it this year.( Have to rebuild the drive chain case) Then I can start the teadious project of putting the truck back together, I promised my son he could have it after he got his license, I only have 6 more years & I'd really like to get a few years of enjoyment out of it before I let him wreck it.

[tbones86]

I'll post pic's when I join the digital age, hopefully I'll get a camera for my August wedding hoping #2 is the charm because there sure as hell won't be a #3

[VFRKitten]

I voted red .. cause as previously mentioned we all know that red goes faster ...

However my current VFR is the anniversary model so is a mix of red and silver, and the '86 VFR I had before this one was white with white rims and I really really liked the look of it !

So many choices

[stratus17]

My VFR800 is blue. And I really like yellow. Could not find one here in Switzerland.

And you're complaining? hehe Blue is cool and NOT! avalable here, so your from Switzerland, Wow. Hey you ever see a Ohlins shock for sale over there drop me a line, I'm wanting one for my 97 VFR very hard to come by. don't mean to turn this thread into something else, but H man not everyday you come across someone from over there and the VFR is the HOT ticket there, so maybe?? who knows, one can only hope...

[Davidvfr]

I have to say RED, because that's what I've got.



However I do like the blue that Honda used on the '98 - '01 model.

Hi RVFR,
I guess, we always want things that are not easily available, like a yellow VFR, for me. There are a lot of blue motorcycles of all makes in Switzerland , Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, ... But no yellow VFR...
Motorcycles and accessories are usually more expensive in Switzerland but I will keep an eye open for a 97 VFR Ohlins shock...
