A hot 41yo takes me for a fun time in the mountains

I went to visit my Nephew in Steamboat Springs, his co-worker graciously offered me the muscle cruiser from 1985.

Nice old bike, but pretty old tyres too eh?

Why does is say V65 on the sidepanel, when the block is marked 1098 ?

I had an identical VFR800 a few years back. My mate christened it "Big Bird"

My buddy asked the same question, I had to reassure him:


"Nice scenery, tires must be hard as a rock! "





I softened them up, I held it at 125 mph for 8 miles with 95° temperatures."
