Project Remedial Murder. The VFR, thus far.

Finally after getting done messing around with the Magna and feeling a time crunch to get things done, I took the rear fairing and fender down to Ed's Premier Auto Body here in town and dropped everything off to get matched and sprayed. My hopes of getting the sub frames powder coated has also fallen through and I've fallen back to the old reliable rattle can to get things done. Ed's did a fantastic job of matching the color to Honda's OEM red and even glued the broken tabs back on for me. Very Nice!


Here is a close up of the finished sleeved coolant bottle. Looks alright, a little rough but so does everything else on the bike.


Also put the spray can to use on the front shroud. Cleaned it up...a little bit.



After riding the VFR for the first time in a while I'm reminded about why I like the bike so much. Center of gravity so so much lower making the bike feel at least a hundred pounds lighter then the Magna (they both weight just over 500). The extra 30 HP is also noticeable not to mention the dual front discs as opposed to the small single disc on the Magna.


Not much else to this post. As projects go, there is always something more to do. But for the time being, this one is done.
