    Hi

    I`m from england, close to Newmarket Suffolk ride a 99 Fiw do all maintenance myself. So far i`ve taken my vfr to the isle of man 2 times and moto gp in the Netherlands Assen 1 time, 1 track day at my local circuit (Snetterton) no crashes only a few low speed drops, presently doing the dreaded valve adjustments. Also considering selling the vfr as i need to make space for my kit car (replica shelby cobra) mainly to finance the paint job for the cobra £4500 $9000 i think, but hopefully honda will have the 1000cc vfr soon a i will sell the cobra to purchase that. But as with all owners i think you will agree a fantastic engine and all round bike.

    Gary

    fitting a 350 sbc, tremec tko500 box with a holley 600cfm and the colour blue with white stripes not sure which blue yet. did think about black to match the vfr tho, i see you are from dallas one of theonly places in the states i`ve visited when staying with friends in oklahoma city a few years ago. how much hp difference does the kn + leo vince make???

    I am SOOOO freaking jealous you got to ride the Isle Of Man. :eek: I don't care if you did it on a skateboard. That is on the list of things I need to do before I die. It's right after getting a massage from 3 naked, babyoil covered lesbians.

    KC-10 FE out...
    :plane:
