Hello I'm new here

Post by magwa »

Well I'm new on this site with an itch to scratch. I'd virtually given up riding and sold all my biking stuff. Then tripped over a very nice Honda vfr800 (99) . 18months later I'm bored with the Honda and want to go back to boxers. ( I've owned several in the past from air heads to my last bmw 1150 gsa)
So I'm on the look out for a nice 1100s
cheers :roll:

Thanks,
I shall spend this winter looking for the right motorcycle
I'm in no rush
there's nothing wrong it my vfr, just I'm always changing the fleet members.
I have returned to classic cars ( morgan) and that's never being sold
(I've waited 60yrs to get that )
I only bike in fair weather these days
I've missed the boxer foibles :wink:
I've a strange taste in bikes......see below

Just to make it clear, under forum rules I cannot post a sales advert on this forum for my viffer.
I only joined today,
I haven't enough posts.

I will place it on sale after I find my 1100s
I do not want to be kicked off this forum on day one
:wink:

My late mother treated me 3yrs ago via inheritance, The car is called " little jeannie" in her memory. I've waited 60yrs, to own one :wink:
I'm keeping this car until I can't drive anymore
My wife also loves the car.
As a result of health issues ( also inherited from my mother! :oops: ) diabetes
I don't ride that much these days but enjoy the car :wink:
as and when I sell my vfr for an 1100s it will be my last bikeImage
