I genuinely appreciate the compliments, especially from the peeps that post the great reports about places I've yet to travel. Thanks Thumbsup

Yep the VFR takes a lot of ribbing here, but it does what I want it to do.  I find that knowing how to use the levers down by your feet generally allows a quick get-a-round on them that need passing Razz

I don't know if the RWB will become a collectible, I don't have to worry about keeping mine minty fresh anyway after wallowing it around on its side in the gravel.  But I'll throw up the closest thing I've got to a glam shot cuz it's so purty Bigok

Ahhh - reading that was like putting salt in a wound  Embarassment

Most excellent pictures and choice of roads. And it's hard to beat a VFR for a ride like that  Thumbsup  Thanks for sharing!

Another thumbs-up.  I keep coming back to this thread. Love the bike.  I need to find one to check out the ergonomics for myself.

Thanks MM, if you need some more RWB VFR lovin' in a little different but equally scenic setting, here's a RR to Moab from earlier this summer.

Those were nice, too. I surf from my phone so some pics get chopped off a bit.

I am 40 and just got my MC endorsement in early August so the VFR800 would be too large for a first bike for me but it is about the size I'm interested in for longer trips.

Awesome!  I remember that view or one extremely similar to it when we were in the Jackson Hole area when I was a kid. It was my first trip out west and the image was indelibly etched in my mind.  I have wanted to go back ever since. I almost moved there once, still have thoughts of retiring out in the Montana/Idaho area, but that it still a ways off.

Your pictures are spectacular; amazing riding out there.  

My 02 VFR has 96,000 miles on it.  Not sure what I could replace it with but a low mileage '07 with that paint scheme wouldn't be a bad move.   Thumbsup  Beautiful bike.  You'll have many years of enjoyment out of it.
