I've been riding a 2000 VFR800i for the last 8 years. The bike has about 34,000 miles on it. Other than consumables the only thing I've had to replace was the thermostat. The VFR has been rock solid dependable and a pretty good ride.

But, I've always regretted not buying a Blackbird all these years. So now I'm on the hunt for one. I'm looking for a good clean one but doesn't need to be pristine (heaven knows I'm not) that I can afford.

Thanks for reading

From New York!

I am sure you can can find a BIRD out there. Good luck in your search. Check out the for sale section of this site and there are many other places to browse for used bikes.

You won't ever regret buying a BIRD I know I didn't.

G'day from an Aussie
Good luck with your search.
You'll find the 'Bird just as reliable as the VFR ................ It's a HONDA

Welcome and good luck. I found mine on cycletrader. Many others here found them on Craigslist and some on ebay. There are at times bikes posted in the for sale section here. Let us know when you hook one.

Good luck. I'd given up until a friend rang me with one near him. Now I just have to fly there to pick it up and ride home. (Friday, Saturday, Sunday upcoming - Yippee!)

Welcome!
