VFR800 Crossrunner part IV

I appreciate your careful, well thought through approach. How do you find the weight of the bike e.g. manoeuvring around your drive/garage & when riding? Apparently they weigh as much as a GS perhaps with a higher centre of gravity.

Thanks Jeb !!! It is a rather heavy bike, but feels great on the road, solid, easy to turn into corners, very neutral steering. I did drip it twice, once when that bloody van came shooting up the lane so fast I had to hit the front brake, which is great, but as on a slope and mid turn, couldn't catch the weight before it went down very slowly. It is a tall bike, kind of like a GS, but not as tall, and seat sits lower. So slow maneuvers can be a little more awkward if like me you are only 5 foot 9 or shorter. In all honesty though, Great bikes, tick almost every box, very under rated. Oh and sound great too..

@@DeanAllenThank you. I have had a 93’ VFR750FR since 2010 & love it but am minded to get something more upright. I’m 5’9” in the morning 😀
