    Wow, wow! So beautiful!
    I saw a white 'Busa the other day and it looked she-she but the black combination of the VFR is spot on. Just fricken' perfect! Congrats!

    Well, this bike has really rekindled my love of riding. It is the best bike I've ever had. I always knew I'd wind up owning a Honda!

    Yeah & if it ever stops bloody raining, could even get to ride it. Don't mind riding in the rain, but the B&W are a pain to get clean :rolleyes:

    I've been out and about in between the downpours. I just can't get over how easy the VFR is to ride. And comfortable, too.

    And I bet you'll never go back. In the past I've owned all 3 of the other Japanese brands and the Honda has stuck. The quality and reliability are second to none.

    True, but it's worth it. I've got the RWB with white rims and they do dirty up quickly, but once you get your routine down, it goes quickly. I can get both rims cleaned up nicely in just 15 minutes. The B&W has got to shine when it's clean which then makes you realize that it's worth the trouble.

    Those two factors are why, despite always having owned Suzukis, I've also always believed that Honda made the world's best bikes.

    I have always noticed how Honda owners pretty much never buy another brand, and that also goes for the cars. (The Jap-built ones, anyway.)

    Another thing I've noticed is that the VFR is the only model of "sport" bike that I regularly see for sale with over 100,000km on the clock, on a bike that is only three or fours years old. - VFR owners are the guys who ride their bike to work every day, rain, hail or shine, then pack a bag and ride from Sydney to Perth for the weekend. The only people who come close are BMW owners.
