    Thanks for bringing this thread back from the dead :rolleyes: I'm glad your happy with your 6g but please don't be talking smack about the 5g, it took the different generation owners a long time to become a semi happy family at VFRW and the last thing we need is a match to rekindle the fire, winter will be here soon enough...

    No way..you are all wacko's...

    btw..i have changed my opinion of the 5th and 6 th engines..after going backwards from a 05 to a 00,putting on 20,000 miles, as much as i want a new 09 bike, and would still love the unchanged 09 vfr, I just don't want that vtech motor back after enjoying this one.. For me the non vtech has proven to be a bit quicker, much better on fuel, cooler sounding, no #$%# efi low speed glitch, and way simpler to maintain..So yes, no comparison for me. I'm talking engines only of course. When it comes to the whole bike, yep, i still love the looks and chassis of the 6th, and of course would rather have a 09!! But I now call it a tie, especially when price comes into it!
    I am right, ig you don't agree with me, send me $$ and I will.

    ....thank you!!
    yes I am bored.

    I must say as a 6th gen owner i really want to ride a 5th gen and "feel" the engine.
    also who the heck resurrected this?

    I guess its confirmed its officially winter

    I did swap bikes with kingsley a member on this site who rides a 5th, for a short ride. first thing i noticed was 5 gen was smoother throttle... power felt the same.... suspension did feel different i preferred my bike but then thats what I'm use to and @ the time he had shitty tires on. and ya i prefer look of 6th gen

    A-men and a-men!!!!! I would love to own a 5th G (and the sportier 4th G) but I have only one ass to place on the saddle and a limited bank account. Please do not rekindle the fires that Taz and other of his ilk set. 5th Gs are grerat rides. I like them. It's all good . . . .

    You may admit to being bored, but you certainly are incomprehensible. But I would like some $$$ too.

    this point has not been made clearly enough, so just so you guys know: the 4th gen is the
    best-looking/fastest/nicest-sounding/most-reliable/having-the-best-mileage
    of them all :))

    (yes, it's winter all right...)

    It makes me laugh, they are like Harley riders who missed the Shovelhead Engine and the Bardall oil. :vanity: [​IMG]

    Anyway, where can you buy a brand new "old bike"? :unsure:

    Wow. I've haven't visited this site in 2 months and I can't believe that this thread is still kicking. It is definitely winter here in the northeast, so can we get another 10 pages out of this thread before spring?
