Thanks for warm re-welcome everyone!!!

Yeah, I'm never getting rid of VF500, I bought it new in 1986 and really love it. Stripped it down about 20-yrs ago and painted frame and forks black so it looked more cohesive. Got seat re-covered in black as well. Ended up looking less like some Tonka or Lego toy! A more serious bike...



I also picked up just before move, my dream bike! I wanted one in '86 when they 1st came out, but couldn't afford it. So got its baby brother VF500 instead. Then one popped up on Kijiji in Canada and I just had to have it. Here it is being loaded into lorry for transport. Took several months as I had to do tonnes of paperwork for CBP, DOT and EPA!!! Driver also got quarantined for 14-days while crossing border.



Arrived just in time for 1st moving truck. It came with all upgrades I would've done myself anyway, so bonus! Has Corbin seat, DMR rear-shock, CBR600F2 forks and 17" wheels!



Unloaded and staged at new place while I get garage ready.. Major monsoons hit right as we arrived!!!
