great bikes recalls are minimal, electrical takes some time to do but not bad

From what little I know, the VFR sort of went from a sports bike to a touring bike when it went from 750 to 800- got a bit bigger but added a bunch of more modern technology like EFI and o2 sensors and that sort of thing, and added VTEC later on. So probably why the electrical plays a part...

But I'm only fuzzy on all of those parts... I'd love to ride around on that SSSA

A guy i ride with every once so often has one. He loves it. Be sure you buy a bike that serves the purpose you have for it, not one that just looks cool.

here's a forum dedicated to the VFR, similar to this one....
