I had my firstexperience of a V4 when my mate bought one to replace his CG125 back in '98.

After seeing him riding it and how it handled, went and stopped I knew I needed one and, a bigger bike than my TZR125!

I bought a FZR400 - IMO

I traded it in about a year later for a VFR 400 NC30 - it was owned by a girl who told me it was called Jasmine!

Since then I've had 5 more VFR's, a CBR 400, a Ducati 748BP and a couple of supermotos but have gone back to whats best - the NC30.

And spent a small (large) fortune on it! I can't see myself buying another bike anytime in the futre as it does everything I need in a bike.

oh yeh and its given me soo much help over the years.

My V4 experience started with a smile and ended with an altercation with a wall 3 days later. Handed the bike back to my boss and soon got my P45 in the post.
