My "new to me" 04 VFR800

I picked her up on the weekend from ZDENO Cycle in Kitchener. They did all the fluids, new chain, new battery and new tires. She runs like a dream. Linda at ZDENO really came through on this bike. I'm looking forward to riding the viffer lots this year.

She has some minor fairing damage (not cracked) on the right side, but nothing I can't fix.

Nice looking bike for sure ..

I love the under-seat exhaust, shows off the single sided swingarm/rear wheel quite well.
Congratulations on the new bike, Rodney.

Thanks and I've since removed the rear pegs I have a few more mods planned as well.

Here's the money shot:

Loving the matte black. If I didn't get my SV1000S for a steal of a price, then it would have been a viffer forsure.

Has this been repainted or did it come from the factory in the Batman black colour scheme?

btw - quite the aggressive tread pattern on the rear tire...

They look better with Givi hardcases.

Take off the swingarm on one side and you'll see the tire better.

Factory color theme, the 04's came in asphalt black, no labeling on front fairing

Yea, the rear is a 17 Metzeler Z6.

You mean rear peg, if so I already did that. I need to get a fender eliminator kit as well.

Agreed. They look naked without the bags.

Look on VFR Discussion and VFR World, there is a few DIY fender eliminator methods posted there
