New Bike
 
Hi All!
After last year of buying a dirt cheap bike (Triumph Daytona 600) and riding around on that it became clear that after dropping down to a single car in the family I was using my bike a lot more for work purposes. So I decided to buy something a lot more suitable for commuting.

So I bought this:

2014 Honda VFR800.
Already shoved a Top Box on it and a Delkevic End Can is in the post.
This bike is easily the best I've ever had. It does everything really well. The right amount of sporty mixed with the right amount of practical.
Really chuffed with the purchase.

Fortunately as I'm self employed I can claim the cost of the bike and helmet and leathers against my business so works out really well.

Looks smart 8)

So you can claim the entire cost of the bike? That's jammy!

Its what i want, if i was ever going to get rid of the sv. As i don't ride the sv enough, then i cant justify getting a vfr :-(

Nice
