VFR 400 UK Restoration
Well i have been on this site for abit now so i think its about time i showed you all what iv been up to. I have owned my vfr since 2006 but after moving back home after living in scotland and having to leave the bike there, it became abit neglected. Some may of seen what it looked like when i first come to the sit but for those who didnt see it before,
After stripping the bike down i realised that the rear brake was a write off, quick look on the bay and a week later its on the bike complete with brake pads.
so im now at the stage where iv been able to put the farings for the 1st time for the past 2 years!
It now looks like a bike again, but i have still abit to do,
Fork seals
Full respray
several lugs need repairing thanks to a previous owner who must of broke the ones holding the seat on and then glued the seat.
And a bloody good clean!

Think you mis read his location. SeanyUKvfr looks like he's from Near York, not New York!
Could be wrong though.
