Bye Bye to the VFR!

The VFR is being replaced with something that suits my body shape a bit better! No not a Tonka Lorry;)

A Yamaha XV1700 Warrior (midnight edition)

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! dont do it :crying: that VFR is gorgeous :wink:

I must admit that photo does it proud, but that is 2 years old and its been dropped since then (poxy disc lock):w00t:

But honestly, being only 5"7’ I struggle with the seat hight. The large midrift don’t help anyway!!!

is that ‘poxy disc lock’ as in forgetting to take it off before pulling away…

:stuck_out_tongue:

:blush:

that warrior looks superb, (exhaust a bit plain but guess thats current regs for ya)

Nice looking bike.:cool:

Got to agree with 2strokes, that exhaust needs changing :slight_smile:
All in good time

Wanted a cruiser without all the chrome, she’d throw a fit if I said “see you in 2 days, I’m off to polish the bike”:smiley:

Dark and still loud!

Traitor!!!

If a new bike is better for your comfort then go for it.

I love my VFR!!!

Great looking bike, I have always liked the warriors

A shift from Honda to Yamaha. Hmmm, isn’t that downwards, no matter what the bike? :wink:

More comfy for the missus and safer for the kids aswell. ( The one I’ve bought has back rest on the pillion seat)

Here’s the baby itself.

Interested to see what Baby Polar Bear thinks when he sees you’ve moved on…I suspect he’ll join you again!!!

:slight_smile:

Grand old age of 32 ginge… feel old though… nearly as old as Barro!!!

Pavel has already called me a traitor!!!
I think stace and olly will too!:crying:

Secretly I think Stace loves cruisers mate…

Nice choice I just made the change from my vfr of 4years was a great bike and still is but needed something more suited to my needs so got a cb1300 much easier on the back so I am looking to find a new home for the vfr (if anybody is on the lookout for one).
