    Hello boys and girls

    First time ever to introduce myself on a forum .
    I guess just like you I like motorbikes ,and in our case we like the vfr .
    Years ago I got a GPZ 750R (20 plus years ago) I liked the than 750 VFR more than the kawa but it was dearer had more km on the clock and the kawa was in a much better condition then the Honda.
    So it was simple .
    About 3 years ago I came across this 2001VFR at the local Kawa dealer .
    Givi top and side panniers ,hellibars pcII akrapovic exhaust.
    Hence the reason I am here

    Please post a certified copy of your birth certificate to prove you are real. Some dudes like pix and they will want some of your bike. I am more fussy.. ;)

    You know, you're going to confuse the folks in the Northern Hemisphere by posting your photos like that:

    They really should be properly oriented like this:

    Welcome, nice ride!

    Your traction techniques must be very different from ours.

    I am sure the rain water does not "settle" for very long so no need for tires that are water wise.
