VB 702A has finally arrived

[Gearbox88m]

Took delivery of my VB 702A today. Original order was placed on 08 April, build finished on 13 June, shipped same day, delivered to the dealer 11 July.

Just went past 50 total miles!! Yay!!!

Was delivered with 16 miles as it was picked for the additional test drive deal the factory does.

Overall I am very pleased with it.

Here it is next to my '17 Fiesta ST that is S280 powered with all the goodies.

Nice. I'm still not sold on the wheel style, but that is definitely the color.

Don't forget to take "on order" off your signature... you have arrived!

What bike(s) go with the helmet?

Those'll do!

I'm only allowed to have *1* so it's a VFR800 25th Anniversary Edition. Coming up on 19 years old, but since I only ride it 50 miles a year, it looks mint.

I have a soft spot for the "older" bikes. They are just a better ride to me, much more engaging. Ive tossed around the idea of picking up a VFR750 if I can find a clean one.

Looks good. Including the wheels. But I'm probably partial.

That FiST looks fun too.

Then this will probably tickle your fancy.

Good stuff. I looked into the FiST when I was also researching the FoST. I went FoST for the space, and do not regret it.
The FiST looked like even more of a 'go cart' for the streets, especially with some tuning/turbo mods.
Looks like a ripper.
Are you keeping it along side your Wolf?

No, I will be selling the Fiesta later this year. Gotta do some maintenance first then it needs a really good detail.

Sweet ride, love the color!

What part of Kansas are you in?

I'm in lovely Salina.

Ive gotta finish tidying up the wiring but I got all the cameras mounted and wired up for my Viofo A229 Pro 3ch dash cam. Next is to do the hardware kit, but its too hot for my chubby self to be crawling around doing that right now.

Also just went past 470 total miles. Did 260+ yesterday alone. I always do "dedicated" drives during the "break-in" period so I can be more aware. I have a 1,200 mile drive to Maryland later this week, and then another 1,200 miles back, YAY!!

Can't wait to get this thing on the road, set the adaptive cruise, and watch the scenery go by.

Blue is my favorite color!

I hit up Rockauto for some 75w and 75w-85 fluid as well as some 2127 filters. Gonna be changing out the PTU and RDU fluid this weekend.

The Lil Mav just crossed 6k miles so Im eager to see how the condition compares to what others are seeing.

Also just ordered a rough countey tri fold flip up tonneau cover.

Emptied out the UPR catch can today. This is after approx 5,000 miles of mixed driving. I do not baby the Lil Mav, lots of full throttle acceleration. This is pretty close to a 50/50 mix between highway and city driving.

This is a 4oz can, so it is approx 3oz of fluid.
