This is probably one of the hardest things I have had to put into words but ........... The time has come to sell the VFR. I have not come to this decision lightly, but to be honest my four or five rides a year at the moment do not justify the expense of keeping it and running it. My missus says sell it and then see how I am when I retire. I spend so much time at work and also my fishing, grandkids, and now my investment in the Mondeo Estate I always wanted have put me in the position where something has to go.

So, anyone want to buy the VFR ? Keep it in the 'family' ? Serviced every 2 years at dealers, always garaged and mothered to death lol.

I intend to stay on this site as I have made a lot of friends on here, and don't want to lose touch totally, so please invite me on any socials. There are also some people I am still looking forwards to meeting. You may know, or suspect, who you are.

I am going to do RTTW 10th anniversary and then I am going to put it up for sale.

If things go according to plan, I am still looking at Route 66 the year after next, and then maybe re-emerge as a Cruiser rider. We'll see. But hey....I never say never.

Sell it, put the money in the bank and when the urge strikes again buy another bike.
Expect the urge about April '18!
