Hi Folks None taken really :-). In fact I am just now catching up with the groups after a few days off. My name was singled out on my bachelor party (or stag party as we call it in the UK) by a comedian for similar reasons.
We have indeed taken a little time off - I hope to release another Roundup episode later today, and we have a special episode coming up on the 4th (can you imagine what that might be? :-) ). The bike is indeed a 1996 VFR 750 FT. For anyone interested, it has a Two Brothers exhaust, K&N air filter, de-snorkeled and re-jetted (factory kit - that model of VFR was the last made with carbs instead of injectors). It sounds magnificent - in the way that only a V-4 with a racing exhaust can sound, and it runs extremely well too (although technology has moved on in the last 12 years, so the 100+ HP it puts out is not up with the 160+ that the new 1000cc bikes can do). I also dremeled the rear fender off so that you can see the rear tire properly. I hang on to it because I love it dearly, have owned it from brand new, and once read a review in bike magazine that rated it as the best version of the best bike ever made - now how can you let something like that go? It also starts first time, every time (take that Ducati owners... :-) ).

If so, I'm jealous... --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
