^ I love the CBR, but think I'm past the age where I can handle a crotch rocket. I like a more upright riding position so I can go the distance.
Wheelbase: 55.2 inches
Dry weight: 388.0 pounds
2000 VFR
Wheelbase: 56.7 inches
Dry weight: 463.0 pounds
I think I could handle it

I don't want/need anything like that...especially for a first bike.
What would be my 4th bike should certainly not equal what would be your 1st bike

If its not too much to maintain, I think you should go for it. Maybe will drive out with you to check it out 
will drive out with you to check it out - insurance
- registration
- inspection
- tires, lots of tires, and bike tires are very costly
- lots of fluid changes
- all sorts of maintenance stuff
