VFR

[Bonk!]

Last time I was at Bettencourt's they were trying hard to sell a new 2006 VFR. I suspect their problem is that it is all white. So the question is, what would you do with a big white bike to make it look like less of a big white bike? By the way, if I do get this I will be selling my 600rr.

I would do nothing. I like the looks of the white VFR...

Zebra stripes?

Too late - they already sold it.....

Doh! I like the white too. Viffer doesn't have a belly pan. I'd say paint frame and rims black...I'd like the contrast.

well, that certainly does look big and white.



i'd get it and put some stripes on it to break things up a bit.


or put a bigass transformers sticker on it

Painting a white VFR red would be about the stupidest thing you could do with a motorcycle..

You see 99% of VFRs on the road are red. The white one is highly, highly prized by most owners.

You will still hear people talking about how great the yellow VFRs are (only sold in model year 2000).

If I understand correctly the white VFRs were only sold 3 years over the 20+ year lifespan of the bike.

It's really only since 2002 they started making other colors.. but white is still "special".

parkway cycles also had a white left over VFR, but don't know how much down they would go in price. It looked great.

i really loved my flat black 04 or "asphault" also only for one year. people loved or hated it. personally i can't stand any white on my bikes.
