Re: Cycle whore thread
the 6th gen is vtec
I'm about to do a bunch of maintenance to it: valve job, fork seals, brakes, chain, etc... and ride it like that till it's paid off.
Eventually, I'll pull it all apart, swap the forks for usd forks, the tail for a 6th gen vfr or maybe cbr, and some other stuff I haven't decided on yet

I saw the crumpled heap of the crash-damaged 1999 Honda VFR800 and found it hard to visualise the promised end result. But the mangled wreck provided the frame and heart of the Bioblade, the V-Four engine. Next step was to buy another crash damaged bike, this time a 2005 Fireblade (the Fireblade being Honda’s name for the CBR1000RR here in the States – MCUSA ed). The superior forks, suspension and braking system replaced the VFR’s entire front end, while its fat and low rear unit was exchanged for the Fireblade’s trimmer tail with underseat exhaust.

Re: Cycle whore thread
today I leaned over far enough to scrape for the first time.
at which point, i panicked and came off the throttle, putting me into the other lane.
I didn't hit anything, and I kept the bike rubber side down.
nice little scrape on the bottom of my exhaust clamp.
