I got one just last week. Never thought I would, but the one I got is a heavily modified rat / survival / bobber thing that I just fell in love with. Its all mat-black with the back end chopped of, single seat and riser flat bars with forward controls. I cannot believe it, but I had a mint Fazer 600 and I sold that to help pay for the VX800 and thats a whole 30 years old pile of crud. Not only that, but in the 4 years that I had the Fazer, I have utterly fallen in love with it, and realised that there is possibly no better bike on the planet, but my back and legs are simply not able to ride any bike any more... I have a few others. But the VX80 with the alterations, make it rideable and so yeah... plus, its got straight thru pipes and so it sounds immense! For a 30 year old its only done 20k Miles and so it should be a half decent ride, but it was dumped in a shed and it had half rotted and so thats why it was chopped... its also got a ridiculously spongy front end so it needs new springs and oil and seals at least!. I got to be honest, but I kind of like it. Yours however is mint... It sounds super sweet and nice and quiet and I had that on the fazer, so I do miss that. I might try sourcing a pair of niuce silencers for mine... as much as I love the thudding its doing, I do kind of want it a tad quieter if only for the neighbours.
This was my dad's bike but was sold quite a while ago. Your bike sounds cool but it sounds like you need a bit of modding to make it your own! Good luck with the project!
Love VXs. I've had 8 of them. This is a beauty and quite rare in blue.
