Dude, just gotta say, you just became my favorite moto vlogger. I used to own an 85 VF700F, and just bought an 07 VFR Anniversary Edition (always wanted one), and I'm already in love with it. Its the perfect blend of comfort and sport, and you gotta love the way those V4's sound and perform! It's always cool seeing a vlogger rockin the same kind of bike as you, and it definitely helps when it comes time for repairs or mods. Keep up the great work man!

When you have VFR, it is eternal love when you can no longer separate from it. I've been driving it for 15 years, and no other engine tempts me. It is comfortable and sporty enough, and the design is timeless.

The gearing change is great. Next time I'm swapping out my chain and gears I'm going to trade in some top end for more acceleration. My bike has a cool top speed and all but realistically 99% of the time I will just be cruising along so in terms of fuel economy and low revving touring I will change my ratios to suit that riding style.

I have an 02, got it 4 years ago, my first bike and only had an hour of riding experience under my belt. I’m five seven and a 175 pounds. I was so afraid of it’s mass and size I didn’t even ride it for two weeks after purchasing. I didn’t go out and choose this bike. It was one of those “I know somebody who is selling their bike for cheap” kinda deals. I paid 2400 and it came with a helmet, only had 3500 miles on it, garage kept, had original tires still. Now I ride the damn thing all the time and I’m really happy I got it. It’s an incredible bike. Only time the weight is noticeable is when in parking lots and at very low speeds, once moving it’s all good. God tier bike, Rossi has one in his bedroom... so I’ve heard lol.

Is it possible to wire in the high beam side? I find the high beam side of things to be pretty average, the low beam side is great for a bike but the high beam not so much. Cheers mate. Oh if you couldn't tell I'm an Aussie.

The handlebar mod , makes front lighter. The +2 sprocket in the rear actually shortens the wheelbase, as it uses more chain. --------------------------------------------------------------- In terms of handling, these 2 mods compensates for each other, but both mods decrease stability at highway speeds, i mean it might tend to wobble when hitting potholes at highway speeds as not enough weight is on the front and wheelbase is shortened. VFR's are very stable from factory so you might have enough room to not get into wobble, but if it does wobble, dont chop of the throttle, just duck in behind screen and gently slow down.

Unless you are a collector and have very low mileage, upgrades when properly done within limits to make the bike better, you don’t devalue the bike. A dealer may tell you that, but thats to give you a low offer on trade. Adding distasteful or ungainly exterior mods will devalue the bike. Or radical color schemes, will hurt the resale value. Your changes are well accepted and would increase the value. Keeping the stock exhaust system to include in the sale also helps retain the value. Nice job.
