I picked her up today.
She's made in Japan and is black with gunmetal rims. Has dual exhausts and clear turn signals. But the best part is she's faster than my Turbo'd 8!

Below are a few pictures.

congrats on the new ride.... damn, just last nite I was thinking to get a bike....

now ride it safe!

Holy crap...those are sweet dual exhausts. I'm curious, how much did you get them for?

They're stock.
I forgot to mention the bike is an 06 Honda, VFR800 (interceptor).

Oh you lucky bastard!!! Seriously though, congrats on the purchase.

zaglo6204 04-04-2006 07:30 PM

i would really hope the bike is faster, but then again your 8 is... special.

Not just faster than your turbo 8, but faster than any other production car, I think a quarter in the high tens for the Interceptor? It's V4 is also rather unique. Great all round choice, congrats!

Have Fun!
 
Is it a twin? How confy is it? My last ride was an 04 ZX6r, not good for longer rides.

/me waits for all the RX-8 haters to start complaining about how crappy the VFR800 is due to 61 ft-lb torque :)

Highly doubt that.

The upright position was one of the main selling points. My previous bike was a CBR600RR and it was nice and all, but dammmmn that riding position sucked if you rode for more than 20miles!! I turned 30 last year and it's starting to show.

Nice gixxer. Yes, above 160mph it starts to get scary. I won't be doing any performance mods, using it mostly for touring (getting the hard bags soon).

Hehe, been meaning to post pics of my ride for a while, so this looks like as good a place as any. Enjoy.

Soundave 04-05-2006 04:01 AM

Oh, and for those who care, that's just reflective rim tape, not neon lighting like you may all be thinking ;)

Yes, it's an 03 cobra. It's my roommates car. Dyno'd at 450whp (smaller pulley 14psi, no cats.)

Nice bike. My second choice was the sv1000s.

djseto 04-05-2006 04:13 PM

The SV1000 is a great bike, but a bit heavy. The SV is a beast at the track. I love out-breaking and passing people with 30+ more HP in the corners. As long as I get a good exit, I can keep ahead of them and turn good lap times at most tracks.

W1CK3Dninja 04-05-2006 04:29 PM

nice bikes! i too am a bike freak i have a 06 636 ninja with a shit load of mods.
