    I think it looks fantastic in its yellow livery. It looks like someone took the time to design the graphic just right.

    Hey Tink

    Just tossin out a thought here, but have you ever thought about yellow wheels? Might go really well, or maybe just a yellow rim stripe to tie in with the rest of the yellow on the bike.

    I think yellow wheels = too much yellow. I like the black accents.

    I would second that....I like the black offset in contrast to the yellow. When you see them in person it really just looks bad-ass. :)

    Tink I like the matching yellow bag strapped to the seat!. On a side note, how hard was it to put the 6th Gen tail on?? I would LOVE to do that.

    An old one, from when I first got her. She has a Givi monokey mounting system and a Givi V47 topcase now, as well as a phone mount and powered USB port.

    Note the white wheels and the red logos. Not something you see every day.

    Hi, we'll I've only just bought my 1999 VFR800fi and had it a month, I'm so pleased I did my research and listened to the advice of the sales guys from various motorbike dealers. Gotta say yellow is a great colour!!

    I love my yellow VFR but then again I have always been partial to yellow and black bikes ever since the BMW GS1000 Bumblebee. I did my Norton in yellow and black and took a bunch of crap from purists. If you have a road going Norton, you have deviated from the original design at some point so why not change the color? The yellow is what sold me on my VFR purchase. I went for a ride and loved the bike but couldn't resist that yellow!
