...you're out on a VFR800 and start thinking 'you know what, this bike's really, really nice'.
How things change in 12 years.

Richard, I know exactly what you mean..
I no longer lust after sports bikes, I have a Sprint RS , a similar bike to a VFR in many ways and of similar vintage, and you know what, I fookin love it!..
Yeah I`am getting old....yeah I don`t give a damn....

I'd be happy just to have the energy to lust after anything at 50.

Am hoping that'll kick in soon, Greg.
Always remember the 400 Superdream was a very good bike - very different to the under-powered slug which was the 250. Still, it was better than the GSX250 and - even worse - the XS250.
