I like it, it' not 'that' special, I reckon I could build something similar... and race it with the CRMC.

Like - there's a touch of "fur coat" about it but I don't care.

I like it, a friend has a VFR that's very similar, it has CBR600 wheels, brakes and forks, I think it cost him about £3K to build, but his paintwork is rattle can white with an eBay graphics kit

That's nice, as KFB says not too "special" just a nicely built early VFR with a few modifications.

I do have a soft spot for VFRs though

I like it, and I like it even more because it reminds me of Fred and a golden age.

Puts those 'customs' with suede seats and a cut-off rear subframe in their place. Nice.
