That less than 400 miles a year. :eek2: It's not even broken in yet! How far is Plano from Deer Park????????

Beautiful bike, somebody should snap that up.

[leo7by24]

I'm perpetually in the market.

Have been looking only at 6 gens, though.

Does the 99 have linked brakes?


Thanks,
Rob

Does the 99 have linked brakes?

Yes they do and they are great.

That's not a dual sport, and will not make it down the beach, but if you must, Plano is about 350 miles from Deer Park.

I've always wanted a VFR and I'd be tempted to sell by Nighthawk and replace it with this one and then buy a DS afterwards as my next bike. Only wish it wasn't red

VTEC or non-VTEC??

[Tourmeister]

You can get blue body work from Canada. It will be very close to the color of your Nighthawk. It is an easy swap. Would look something like this:

Looks better if you strip the black paint off the rims... :trust:

Non Vtec. That nonsense started with the 02 models ;-)

Also, the 98-99 has open loop FI so there is a fast idle lever on the bar, similar to a choke for cold starting. The 00-01's are closed loop, meaning they have an oxygen sensor after the cat, and don't have the fast idle lever. Just start and go. The FI open/closed thing is the only difference between the 98/99 and the 00/01's.

Anybody in the market for a very nice Nighthawk 750 with several mods and upgrades?

[1TallTXn]

I'm a bit partial to the VFRs in blue. mine still has black wheels though, I gotta fix that at some point...

I'll ride this one down too :trust:

I think I'm starting to sound like Squeaky! :eek2: :doh: :lol2:

[Beach]

Come on down, we can do a street bike ride then a DS ride.
As a side note, (not to hijack this thread) but I just found Houston Motorcycle Salvage over on Red Bluff in Pasadena. Looks like them have tons of plastic for anyone needing some bodywork replacements.

[GetBent]

Someone please loan me $5200.00 There is a really nice VFR I would like to buy.

[mbauer]

non-VTEC

[TexBiker]

Very nice bikes. When I was in the market for a new ST bike, the pre-VTEC Interceptors were on my short list. Good luck with your sale.

[Beach]

Somebody buy my Nighthawk 750 so I can buy this bike! :rider:

Just not enough room currently

If it was a 2000/01 I probable couldn't resist. I sold my first 2000 model after 18K and missed it enough that I bought another one I still ride. Whoever buys this VFR is getting a fantastic motorcycle for a very good priceIMHO.:rider:

Is there a difference other than the manual choke? It doesn't seem to be a problem at all. I usually don't need to use it.

[mbauer]

The mirrors are much more attractive in 2000, but they are a bolt on replacement. I do not recall any other differences.

[FJRMike]

pre-VTEC = good.

I did the same thing. I sold my '99 and missed it so much that I turned around and bought a cherry, low mileage '00 VFR six months later. Love those 5th generation VFRs!

Amen. That's the *only* thing I didn't like about the '99 I once owned. They have these stupid rubber sleeves that slip around the mirror stem. I was never able to get the left one to stay in place.

[Squeaky]

Is this bike still up for grabs?
I have a friend that would like more pics if you've got them.

You mean that matters??

Someone should have told me before I rode mine 1440 miles to get it home from the purchase!!:eek2:

[mbauer]

Yes, it is still for sale. I have no more pics, but will take a few and post in the next couple of days.
