    Hello all,

    I've been reading here for a bit, gathering info, and doing research ever since I took a test ride on a 5th gen VFR a while ago. I thought that one was overpriced and passed on it but I knew if I was patient I could find the right deal. It took a while but I finally found it. A '98 VFR with 36k, valves done at 25k, regulator/rectifier already replaced, new brakes, bar risers, battery tender, a shop manual and more. It did need tires and chain/sprocket, and I had to trailer it home in a January snowstorm (pretty much one of 3 days we got snow this year).

    It's much cleaner now, but I don't have any new pics yet.

    Anybody have any suggestions on small top cases? The Givi Monokey that came with it is something like 44 liter capacity, but I just want something for day trips and around town stuff that isn't a tank bag. The Tailgunner from Gsessories is pretty close to what I want, but it's expensive, the VFR isn't listed, and I've already got the Givi rack.
