I'll try to answer some of your questions.....but for the best answers....you should go to VFRD There's probably alot of guys there that can give you a great comparison between your CBR and the VFR.

It carves corners with the best of them.

The seating is not quite as aggressive as the CBR. Comfortable enough to ride all day and aggressive enough to rip through the curves when you get where you're going.

I average in the low 40's for fuel mileage...I screw around quite a bit too though....no grandma riding from me.

Redline is 11,800

You're running on half the valves 'till you hit 6800 rpms. Then the whole family kicks in. Some people like it...some don't. I do! Only the '02+ VFR's are set up like this.

Hope this answers some of your questions. I love my VFR and plan on keeping it for a long time. Coming from a CBR, I think you'd like it too. As I said above, go over to VFRD..there's a wealth of info over there and they will answer ANY questions you have concerning the VFR. Good luck!
