You make a good point but he did take about three months to get from Seattle to Bennington and back home. I think his best day was about 200 miles.

She is 5'2" with eyes a blue and I top out at right about 6 feet. Her bonnie puts her in a very similar riding position to mine on the VFR.

The biggest problem is I don't want to sell the VFR. Maybe next year I will have a bonnie.

She doesn't want a new one. She just spent the change for a big time overhaul. Replaced piston rings and a bunch of gaskets and stuff. Amazingly the bike no longer leaks oil.

Don't forget my bike at the first bash was a Triumph and it is also the reason I met my wife.

My next bike will be a Bonneville but I'm not sure how I would feel after 1500 miles on it getting to the bash.


You would feel awesome


after the massage.

New guy here, just signed up. Made my reservation already. Will be riding up with Gerry and his Sprint 955. He was nice enough to invite me, even though I have a VFR. :)

Welcome Bryan!

You have a great bike, I love the VFR. I am also an adventure touring / sport touring person. What color! My friend Paul (Lovel) has a Red VFR sweet ride.

You are in good hands with Gerry, he is a good man. See you at the BASH!
