Congrats, Mide.
Looks great.

So, are we going to see you out on it before Normandy?

 

[Mide]

Not sure when it'll get here

Kev and I are recovering, very slowly, from horrific manumonia obviously Kev had it much much worse than me!

Once we know when it's gonna be here, we'll give ya shout

So, you coming to Normandy?!?

 

[Kamikaze]

Sure, I couldn't let ye go on your own. Ye might have fun.

I missed out on a Suzuki RF900R for €850 last week by 10 minutes.
It's back up again today at €2500. Feck, feck, feck,

VFR750FK

I am not sure how easy it is for you to import from the UK? I have a 1989 VFR750FK, 58,000 miles, generally good condition that you could have for €999

Let me know if you want more details.

 

[Kamikaze]

Thanks, Glynn.
The costs of getting it here do have to be taken into consideration. High mileage too.
That said, I'm interested in having a look at any photos you might have.

Thanks,

Jim.

I don't think 2320 miles per year is a lot! The VFR engine is good for 200k at least.

I am just off down south for a couple of days but will dig out some photos on Wednesday.

 

[Kamikaze]

Good point.
I like the VFRs too.

I'm looking for something to keep, something different to the 640, suitable for longer spins.

nice vfr800 up on donedeal with luggage at 1.5k ish

also few blackbirds up under 2k

Can't see either of those, John.
The Blackbird with no price in Mayo is sold. Didn't think to ask him what he was looking for it.

 

[john_aero]

both sold just checked were up last night

 

[Kamikaze]

Success.
Bought a 97 VFR750FV yesterday.
42000 miles, almost as new condition.
€900.
English reg so will have to pay VRT but that'll be €109 if I've calculated right.
A bit of luck money from the seller and it comes in under the grand.

 

[GlynnJ]

Sounds like a bargain

 

[Beamer]

Wear well Jim! Lovely looking bike!!!!!

 

[richie]

The best VFR there was, well done and well wear
