That dream has moved aside, I jumped at an opportunity and traded up...
a '98 VFR800fi with over 57k miles on the clock!
within the 1st 6 weeks, it broke down 3 times, dead battery due to faulty regulator/rectifier, replaced with new battery and 2nd hand R/R, next the fuel injection system conked out, loose fuse wire, then the 2nd hand R/R went, in a dramatic plume of smoke, lucky I wasn't riding at the time as the bike would have been melted! but now has a new battery, new R/R and I've added a voltage monitor for peace of mind
so it's another single-sided swing-armed honda! fairings are a pain in the arse but something new to get used to, more to come!
