[Quo Vadas]

Picked up my new 1996 RVF400 today. After a long search I found one in excellent condition and for a sweet price ($5500). Fucking thing goes like the clapper and I found myself speeding for almost 90% of the whole ride home. The exhaust note is a sweet low growl and the pick up/acceleration is nuts. So impressed by the way these machines handle on the road. Going for a big ride up to Yea on Sunday and I can't wait to get up through some twisties.

Some weird make from Japan - JPNA or something like that. Sounds fucking unreal.

Such a great ride after fanging around on a the cibbie.

Sick scheme man. Remove those pillion pegs, single seat cowl and slimline indicators that's all I would do to it, besides ride the shit out of it!

 

[Hellessey]

you have no idea how insanely jealous i am.

you lucky son of a bitch. enjoy the living hell out of it!

 

[francisz]

id let it sleep on my bed, while i occupy the couch.!

 

[Cap'n Commando]

just had to come back and say

PLEASE DON'T TYGA IT. SUCH A BEAUTIFUL BIKE.

 

[dayeve]

+1 don't tyga. I love that scheme.

Unless you go balls out like someone on here that had a beautiful baby blue one with polished lips.

 

[Cap'n Commando]

that was Dcottons I believe, yeah that thing looked great..but I don't really think it was THAT 'balls out'...I'd choose the original any day.

 

[Quo Vadas]

I am keeping it original as i love the original colour scheme and couldn't be fucked forking out for a tyga kit. I reckon the bike looks best the way it is and that combined with how the bike rides etc is why I got it. When I buy a bike with the latest kit/look that I want I'll do it. My vas deferens still get engorged with blood when I think about riding a Daytona 675 but for now, my hard on can be caressed by the bitch that is known as the RVF400........................

Maybe we are thinking of different bikes or I remember it incorrectly. Sure it wasn't a long slung candy painted turbo charged chromed out ride. But I remember it at probably the most impressive one I had ever seen and far from stock.

 

[Sneddy]

fucking awesome ride dude! Congrats on the purchase! And such a good price too! Well done!

 

[K916]

Thank God for no Tyga !!

You young man are a man of good taste !!

 

[sgtbilko28]

The only nice 400 with a Tyga kit I've seen was at Bondi Beach last summer. It had a stunning Red Bull paint job. The rest of them look a bit shonky.

If you do Tyga it, spend the bucks on the paint!

 

[juxt]

Nice purchase!
There is no doubt they are a classic bike.
+1 to no Tyga (it looks to be in such good condition as is), but it seems you have already decided.

 

[Merudo]

Beautiful bike mate. Very very nice. The sound and look of these are complete classics, love it.

 

[shane]

i am so fucking jealous. if i ever got a roadbike again, id def have to get one of these, pure horn.
