Every time I think about selling my '08 Honda VFR 800 I go for a ride and then remember why I like the bike. Owning another Miata will probably be the end of the bike though. Come spring I think the bike will be sold. Just don't get enough use out of it anymore. The bike was my "fun" vehicle and now the Miata is my fun vehicle again.
I remember those VFR's well.
We had a few earlier ones turn up in New Zealand that were called 'Interceptors' which we all thought was a hell of a man-trap to own a U.S. marketed bike. 700's from memory.
The grime is good stuff, like anything-practice makes perfect.
I did try a bit of an experiment with using grime for winter vehicles on the tracks, mixed with dark steel pigment from Vallejo.
Over a base paint of red primer & my track blend paint.
They look good, but are very messy to the touch!
All that will sort out once I get too running it outside.
