    Did you ever hear the story about the launch of the first year VFR all white bike? The OEM for some reason put a gag/can't ride order to the magazines but let them peek at it. So one of the magazines put a rider on it at the top of a hill and let gravity take it's course. And their photographer tilted the camera for the picture and so they could scoop all the other mags!

    I don't remember, but journos in those days got away with so much. For a good read look up the book the bad editor. It's a pretty good read about that stuff

    Would love to have one of those 8 spoke wheels for my 98 VFR, damn wheel is worth more than the rest of the bike.

    Those 8 spokes are gold for sure. Last 2 I missed both sold for $350+.
