She threatened to take a sledge to it if I left:o I got ya there! I don't get much opportunity to ride, either. You've put more miles on your bike this season than I have, in all honesty! I usually get the feeling that I'll make things tougher on myself if I take off and ride too much, but it's usually not really like that.

AndyJ Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 I had seen this one but forgot about it. I do like this one....That is nice... just getting broken in... I'm gonna guess he's driving back from C'bus with it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garysol1 Posted April 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 That is nice... just getting broken in... I'm gonna guess he's driving back from C'bus with it now.Nope.....But it looks like its twin down to the exhaust.

garysol1 Posted April 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 Ok.....So I met the buyer of my RC51 today at the Ohio Michigan border as he was driving down from the Upper Peninsula area. I had gotten to the rest area about 30 minutes early so I surfed the web a bit on my phone and kept going back to that VFR in Columbus. I decided that was the bike I wanted. I decided I preferred the pre Vtec model due to the cheaper maintenance costs and no abruptness when the vtec kicks in and out. So after the buyer shows up we get his trailer loaded up and he hands me a wad of 100's. I was now a buyer On the way home I figured I may as well run by Honda East in Toledo as it is ALMOST on the way home. I stroll in there and ask "Do you have any Gen 5 VFR's? He gave me a blank look...... So I said do you have any clean used 98-02 VFR's and he says matter of fact we just traded one in a few days ago. He shows me to there used bike building and there sits an almost immaculate bright red 98 VFR800 F.I. with a Two Bros pipe. After a quick inspection I noticed that the bike had brand new Sportmax tires and fresh oil change. I kept thinking this was just meant to be.....here I was with money in hand and the bike was lusting after just happened to fall in my lap with a deal better than anything I have seen on Ebay or Craigslist. 30 minutes after getting there I was loaded up and heading home. The salesman said it was his quickest sale ever.Ill get snap a few picks tomorrow..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Identical bike with only 11k on the odometer Pictures with today's paper or it's all lies..... Is someone hiding these things in a bunker somewhere and releasing them one at a time? Lots of awesome 5th gens popping up lately. Somebody on VFRW found one with the original MSO, never titled somewhere out west this winter.

Those guys are on top of finding these bikes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garysol1 Posted April 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2010 $3500? For a immaculate '98? - Super deal! Not immaculate but pretty damn nice and the fact that I did not have to spend any of my time driving in circles looking for the right bike was priceless.
