This is from a friend of mine. Bike is in the Los Angeles Area. Ive ridden with him and seen the bike in person. Its a good bike, great deal.

Hey all,

I gotta blow this thing out to make space guys. It needs to be registered, an ignition switch, a part for the seat latch, and a little work to the charging system (needs additional wiring to improve connection), and the bodywork is mostly off. $1500 someone please take it away!











Sparky just did the valve adjustment and went through the carbs, and a couple of other things, so it's like you got $500 worth of service free too.

The bike also has a Penske shock, complete Race Tech fork internals, and a Corbin seat (that accepts back rests). Tires are Pilot Powers and they should have pleny of tread left on them.

The bike's bodywork has a cheap paintjob and original gas tank. It's very presentable for a 17 year old bike with around 50-60k miles, but it's far from a show bike. [edit: bodywork red is slightly off from tank red, barely noticable as you can see in the pics-pantablo]

If you want a great, reliable, comfortable motorycle that is still somewhat sporty and good for two up riding. I doubt you will find a better VFR for $1000 more let alone any other bike.

He has a new R1 and needs room in the garage, otherwise he wouldn't be selling it.
PM me if you or someone you know is interested.
