Welcome. Remember Hoover is the self proclaimed site Cunt. The white 8s are cool. I have a 12 which is flat gray. I have considered getting mine painted this winter, white is near the top of the list, I was also thinking maybe a very dark blue. Which if you knew me would seem strange as every car, truck and boat I have owned in the last twenty years have been red.

I traded it for a CBR1000rr then sold that because I can't control myself on the road lol.

I now spend most of my ride time off road

I drive for a living and need my licence but, I couldn't resist a bargain and recently bought a very cheap and nasty road bike... A 98 VTR1000f, very similar power wise to the 8. I think it may end up a track bike or at least spend its life with me there.

Oh makes sense

I had a FZ1S a few years ago and got rid of it because I couldn't control myself. I now have the FZ8 and because its so light it feels like it accelerates quicker then the FZ1S
