I got rid of my final bike a few years ago, an Honda VFR 750. It was better than mint when I bought it, but it was a bit too tall/wide in the saddle for me and I dropped it coming to a stop at least once, scraping the fairing. That, even after buying a used saddle to reshape myself.

On the move, it was absolutely lovely, water cooled, very smooth and quiet mechanically. The only thing would have liked better, was the same bike, but with shaft or belt drive. I hated chain maintenance and was always wary of chains snapping, having once had it happen in my early biking days.

I made a decision to get the fairing sprayed up, where I had scraped it and sell it on.
