Hi everyone Another blinkin Kiwi living in Australia, Brisvegas to be precise. Doing up a 1987 VFR 400. Bought it from a friend who jumped from that to a Hayabusa. We (thats the royal we) have powdercoated the rims, the steering stock, and the fairing frame black Picked up some new fairings as the old ones were pretty much trashed. Got the forks rebuilt and hard chromed. Just looking for some steering head bearings and seals, tyres, master brake cylinder (might have to overhaul but will see what the Chief Engineer (my husband Tony - long suffering at that. Just ask him)has to say. Paint and decals, roadworthy, registration and then watch out world here I come. Oh I own a CB 400 which I just absolutely adore. Picy of hopefully what she will look like when Im done
Nice one Trix, that VFR400 will look great with those USD forks and that smick Wasp like yellow/black paintscheme. VFRWorld is a great site with good people but if you haven't already don't forget to check out the Local " OzVFR.net " as well for local rides or Interstate gatherings etc. When registering for OzVFR you need a real email address ( ie not hotmail etc ) and happy admin is a bit busy at times so pm me if he hasn't registered you in a reasonable time period.
welcome trix, nice to see the maori flag flying on the boards. i didnt even know you could get one! how progressive and forward thinking of the admins. yep, post up a pic,even work in progress is good. cheers RT
Do they make `waterwings' for the viff?I`d love to ride downunder.Sounds like a great bike,good work and welcome.Was there last spring,you all love your bikes...oui,oui!I'm so wrong.HAKA...eh?
Thanks people. Yeah haka malcster but not the one your thinking as thats only done by the male of the species. Women do have their own ones. Where I live we ride all year round so its just awesome. Only been riding for 5 years but have clocked up some serious miles.
