    New to the forum but not new to Hondas. I just bought this 1993 VFR from a friend who was the original owner. This white lady has 12,600 original miles. 100% stock bike and a true survivor. He even pulled off the stock pipe as to not damage it! Still even has the rear tail uncut.

    I've told him for almost a decade (if you ever decide to sell it.....) and this was the year.

    She's a beauty and I'm glad to have her in my stable.

    I'll be trolling the forums to really build some knowledge on these machines over and above the base knowledge I have on them. So thanks ahead of time when I have questions but I'll do my best to search for it first before posting (I know I know.....)

    That is a very nice bike you got there. Wish I had one......oh wait i do.....lol. Its nice to see that the white 3rd gen lives on. There are not many of these bikes left out there. Especially in the condition yours is. Enjoy it .. Looks like you are missing the side stand cover and solo seat cover. Also the center stand. Be careful removing the plastic as it gets very brittle after 26 years.

    Shoot me a pic of your side stand cover. I'll start the search for one. And yes, I'd like to find a seat cowl... I may buy one from Airtech and have it painted.

    Here you go. It's plastic and held on with 2 screws. It was originally pearl white but I painted mine aluminum with the heat shields . With the sidestand up it almost hides the sidestand. The solo seat is hard to find in white. Mine has been modified to suit my taste. I personally like it better than stock. Less weight and much better sound. Let the v4 sing. It's a wonderful engine. 20190328_165954.jpg
