2007 VFR as urban commuter

[Professor ST]

Here's my new 2007 VFR set up for the urban commute.

Functional masterpiece or aesthetic abomination?

You be the judge...

Tech spec snakeskin tank grip set
Garmin Zumo 550 hardwired
Custom rack from VFRDiscussion.com member
Givi universal base plate and Trekker top case.

I took the top case out today and I must say I never noticed it was there on a 50 mile loop of backroads, stop 'n go and slab.

I know it's big, but I like being able to leave my gear with the bike and walk to my office.

I have the oem side racks on mine -- bungeed a backpack, helped with lane splitting when needed.  Top case does the same.

I used warmnsafe heatrollers to extend the riding season year round.  Fit nicely in the left meter panel.  The satellite radio was good too, but really didn't use that on the commute (less than 20 miles).

Ride safe.

And to keep with the spirit of the thread, here's my replacement anniversary '07.  You'll note the slightly different color. . ..

I love those RWB 2007 VFR's! Very Purty!

As I said in VFRD, great choice in year/color! The OEM side cases are so convenient for carrying stuff, like a change of shoes for work, I never take them off anymore.
