    Well, after years of wanting & looking, but sticking to my long time trusty Goldwings (yeah....had 4 of 'em and been riding them since 1978-including 12 years on one as a LEO motorscout), I tired of scraping the wing on the twisties when out pavement dancing...plus I have got too much invested to drop it. So.....I was looking to add to my stable.

    I finally ran across a deal I could not pass up and picked up a Red 2004 VFR w/ 1500 miles last night at a steal of price! Test road it Sat & loved it.

    Today I get home & the guy moving into the garage next to mine shows me a sliver & black 2005 Yamaha FZ1 with 400 mile for sale cheap. If I could I'd buy it too! Damn when it rains it pours!

    Any way, I am adding Helibar risers & Kisan headlight & tail light modulators, & other safety lights for the street. I am lLooking for ideas on who makes good graphics for the VFR. Also anybody know if the battery system will support the additional load for a GPS along with heated riding gear? Any one experiencing alternator issues with accessories? Thanks for any feedback!


    Can't wait for my first track days & some expereinced training at one of the riding schools. Anybody done one of these riding schools on their VFR?

    Ride Safe, Ride Paraniod!
