Always a proud day when you get a new bike
I've just bought a 1991 VFR750... Nice condition. A bit of scope for some cosmetic TLC. Cheap. Runs well... like new in fact. I've always liked these bikes. Great engine and very well built. It sounds great... I'm going to use it for riding to work and perhaps a bit of a tour of NZ. I still have my Blade and will still use it for blasts and trackdays and when I get that urge for something ballistic....
I've been looking at smaller bikes for a while.... something to use for work and could may be do some touring on. Had to be built for the road (not the track) and be comfy. I looked at the Kawa Versys & the BMW F650... Then I saw this and I thought.... hang on - this is a fraction of the price those and I know they are great bikes... it's just the job... why not.... so here we are. Practical quality biking for less...
