#Honda #VFR800FI Generation 5 Todays video covers the final paint and completion of the first of 2 Honda VFR800fi. This is the 2001 model. The 2nd one is a manual choke 2000 model. Every week a new video will be uploaded covering a specific topic of restoring a motorbike of some interest. I intention is to share how to restore an object. Anything that I grow passionate about. It’s that simple. I have a day job in a company which restores for a living. Please check out our other channel CarbonBikeRepair (a blue shield logo) for some amazing carbon fibre and paint skills. I’m not a professional YouTuber but maybe one day if this amazing response for you all continues! So PLEASE SUBSCRIBE TO MY CHANNEL AND HIT THE NOTIFICATION 'BELL' ICON, TO BE NOTIFIED WHEN A NEW VIDEO IS PUBLISHED. Some history of this Honda VFR800FI 2001 model: Discovered on Facebook right in the middle of restoring of a very rare Norton Commando, I decided to impulse buy! It was later that I discovered the Gen5 version was a limited production run before the VTEC model emerged in 2002 and quite sought after. Lucky me and lucky bike! It is in a shocking state but I’ll turn it around if you watch this challenging restoration! Old tech is fickle… I don’t imagine there will be more than 2 parts to this as I’m just as excited to deliver the iconic Commando back to the road or a museum! For now my intention is to restore this VFR on the tightest of budgets (which is fun for me to ride) but also to deliver to my viewers a great example of a Honda VFR800FI. Thanks again for watching my work. You are all contributing in some way to the growth and maturation of the content. See you on your screen! Rob
