Having lived in Isaan for a year, the old CBR400's far outnumbered any other 400cc model.

^ Nice moto Ant. Only few differences between the RVF and VFR.

Yes mate very similar.

Miss that bike and even started looking at others again a few months back until commonsense took hold (that's me nickname for the wife )

I hear ya. I will probably hang up moto riding in a few years. I enjoy messin around and off roading in my truck more but it is nice to fire the bike up and go for a mountain blast.

My latest bike purchased last October. Great bike to ride. Well balanced and in good nick. Replaced the voltage reg but other than that it is running ok, although I havent got around to checking how well the carbys are synchronised yet. Seat is comfortable and gerbox not too clunky. Not a spot of oil anywhere. In nice condition for a 2003 model. Only non stock item are the vance and hines. Love riding it but would like a second sports bike. The heart says an F4 the head say a gixxer 1000.

Er, no disrespect dude, but no.
I have no intentions of photographing anything, especially Japanese, that is enclosed in a plastic fairing. Even more so if it is a watercooled multi.
Just no interest.
Not my cup of tea and all that old chap.

And 10 years ago.

And 8 years ago.

No worries.

Perhaps i came across as a tad harsh, not intended.
If i come across one sans plastic, modified with a trad 60's flat track or cafe seat and a decent paint job, i promise i'll post it up.

I'm not looking to impress old guys in a pub, mid 20s bimbos on the other hand...

Not many Sports bikes beat this for looks. IMO a truly beautiful motorcycle and piece of engineering. (click pic to enlarge)

Incidentally can anyone tell me why all my pics seem to be coming out in thumbnails on TD.

To save bandwidth, presumably.

If you double click on it before posting you can choose a bigger size.

Nice looking bike Lulu. Loved the old VFRs before cam chains. The seat looks like you'd get a million blisters on your ass after a few K's.

Me too. The Honda 250 RR SP motos are also technical works of art. These motos were way ahead of their time but it was when Factory teams threw tons of money at them. The RVF was really the polished up version where they inverted the forks and made the wheels the same size allowing for better tire selection.

picked this up a few weeks ago

Be careful with the photos because the phone number 038078650 and the website Gas Barbecue grills Thai-BBQ Thailand is clearly visible. You don't want strangers contacting you about the grills that start at only 9,999 baht or looking at your 4.6* review score on Google (that also gives the full address of the store, should you wish to visit).

If you want some noise, the Two Brothers S1R exhaust sounds amazing with the triple.

10 years from now I may want one of these. By then I will probably be too dangerous to others in a car. Unless I can afford a fully self driving Tesla. Good for shopping at least.
