    I had an 03 VFR but wrecked it after I had ridden from California back to my hometown of Woodstock Virginia. Bike was totalled but I was fine. I can attest to proper riding gear! Anyhow it's been approximately 3 years and I finally made an impulse buy at Winchester Honda in Virginia and bought a Black 06 VFR. I am currently waiting for it to arrive. I don't think my silver OEM hard bags will look very stunning on a black bike but they don't make the silver anymore and I sure as heck was not purchasing that horrid color scheme of the 07 models ( no offense to any one who likes it, it's just not my cup-o-tea if ya know what I mean. I enjoy reading all the discussions, so keep up the good work.

    Hey trip. Welcome to the group. Glad to here you rejoining the VR (V-4) ranks as well as glad to kow you are ok, even though the bike was totaled. Better the bike than you right? The silver will surely stand out agains the black, but it might not look too bad since it is a glossy black and not the asphalt black. Just have to really wait and see tho.
