    Hi,

    I just picked up a 1998 with only 8k miles on it. This community seems as good as the VFR's are.

    I live in Athens, GA right now (in the Navy and move alot).

    Previous bikes:
    2003 Kawi ZR-7S (Sold)
    1998 Yam FZR 600 (Sold)
    2004 Kawi EX 250 (Sold)
    1998 Suzi Marauder 800 (Sold)
    1998 Suzi VL 1500 LC (Sold)
    2001 Yam V-Star 650 (Sold)
    1978 Yam XS 400 (Sold)
    1989 Suzi Katana 600 (RIP)

    Been riding since 1995, love the North GA mountains, Blue Ridge Parkway, and the Canyons of Southern CA.:biggrin:

    Welcome to the group quema. How far are you from Deals Gap (Tail of the Dragon)? I think you will like the VFR as it is a reliable bike that works well in both touring and sport mode. Post some pics in the photo gallery if you get a chance and we also have a member map to pin youself to. Also, by your list of previous rides, you seem to have a diverse experience between cruisers and sport bikes. :thumbs: We are happy to have you join us.

    Vin
