    That bike looks awesome. I've always liked the look of the VFR. How is it going so far?

    Pretty sweet. I have only done 400k since Sat but it is faster and better handling than I am ready for. It makes the 20k commute to work much more fun.

    Nice I have read a few people have issues with the V-Tec engine (if I recall correctly) and its uneven power delivery. I suppose 400kms isn't enough to tell but have you noticed this being an issue at all?

    Not really an issue at the moment. The main thing I notice is the change in the noise. I think it is more of an issue if you just creep up to 7000 slowly.

    Hi, Sean!

    Yeah, I'm on here too - you can't get away from me (cue rabid hordes screaming "He's everywhere! HE'S EVERYWHERE!!)

    I'm sure you'll enjoy KB. Just ignore the 'tards.

    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....
