    I've not been around on the forum much of late but due to an ongoing back problem the blade it's just not comfortable anymore. Will be sad to see her go. But to be honest I've only done 4300 miles on her but each mile I've had a smile on my face, other when my back is killing me!

    So in her place will be a new vfr 1200f. I've been testing one all week and it's a great bike. Looks wise I know it's not for everyone but I really like it. Now don't take the piss too much but I'm getting the duel clutch model:eek:.... Rode both and I didn't think I would like the duel clutch but what a great piece of engineering it is......... Will pop in from time to time..

    Having a back problem is a major life changer, good luck with the new bike at least it's a honda

    Quite fancy one of those for Touring duties but couldn't justify another Bike even if I could afford it!

    I would rather have the Crosstourer than the VFR.
    Best of luck with it though mate.
