I just bought this late yesterday afternoon. I rode it around some last night, dang it was cold. First bike I've had in 12 yrs, I'm abit clumbsy(just like the first time). Man!! It made me feel like I was 19-20 all over again!! Now.. do I bring the mustang out of the garage so I can put the bike in? Hmmm...

nice bike rick ,it's a cbr right?, a guy i work with has a 600 but stuffed a 1000 cc engine in it, plus he built it,he races it at daytona etc, that thing will fly, nice bike man they are fast, i raced him one night in my gt, blew him away-

hahaha i dont think he got out of second gear, it was fun though .nice ride like joe said pull it in sideway's in front of the tang ,l8ter.

Good luck with that ,be safe ! I am the same way ,I want a street bike again sooooo bad,but I am wondering if can really handle it like I use to .At one time I lived in Las vegas ( 4 yrs.) and I was putting 17000 mi a yr. and I would turn around and buy a new one each year (everybody had a bike there) then I move back to PA. and it was not the same ,not even close.So I sold a bran new 750 Ninja with 3200 mi on it.. Now I got the fever again.. anyway good luck with your Honda ..Michael

Thanks guys

. Its a 1998 Honda VFR800fi(interceptor). I wanted a comfortable bike and this was the only sport-touring bike in the 750 range. It will be good around town and for trips(best of both worlds). Someone ran in the back of me in 1990 while I was riding my V-Max and I sold it, just couldn't mentally ride the thing again(kept feeling like I was going to fall off).

I am sooo happy with my purchase, I really should have been riding all these years(I was thinking earlier). I went riding for a couple hours today and am very happy with my decision.. I can't wait 'til it warms up. Only thing that keeps going through my mind is.. I wonder which is faster, the mustang or the bike.. The mag says the bike runs 11.3s in the 1320, I really need to get the mustang to the track
