Go for it Big Les! Or like me, wait to buy one in good running condition. Either way - they're great bikes!

I put quite a few miles on my college roommate's 500 interceptor which is great little bike and I was fortunate to ride a VF1000 once. Unfortunately the 1000 wasn't running good at the time so I couldn't really feel the brute force of it.
Yeah David.....I've never had enough confidence to do the carb R&R myself, but it can be done. And an important aspect of keeping these bikes running the way they should. Something like that it's best to have an "expert" do for ya, IMHO.

Thanks, Mike. Agree on the paint scheme. Mine would benefit from a re-paint so hoping to do that at some point.
