So do people with VFRs actually ride their VFR or do they just push them?

I ride to places, then push it. Thankfully, I have a Corbin seat coming in the mail, so the time I spend sitting on the bike waiting for the truck to arrive should be nice and comfortable.

The worst part is not knowing what RJ will want as payment for picking me up...

So, I still have it and its running well. After replacing the regulator, I ended up installing a voltmeter on on the triple tree, and discovered that the idle speed was *just* too low, and wasn't charging the battery at idle. Raised it ~150 rpm, and its perfect.
So, who knows what the original problem was, but basically the entire electrical system is new and under constant monitoring. I'm happy that its running well and I don't plan on getting rid of it. In fact, I bought another POS Honda...
