  • that looks so sweet in matt black...do you have any more pics?

  • Yeah, but it doesn't look the same anymore. It's now a single seat, custom sub-frame, bike. Guard rail jumped out of nowhere during one of my rides :)

  • Comment removed

  • I had about 10sec of music at the end, and they CENSORED me because of that! I'm working on cutting out then and reposting it without the music.

  • That's crazy! Thanks for your comment. The one above is addressed to YouTube. And congrats for the cool VFR Sound, very nice bike too!

  • Uploaded the same video without the music at the end, however there is now sound.

  • try deleting the video and uploading a fresh new one from scratch

  • I've got a '90 Japanese built VFR with a Two Bros. pipe, makes the sweet gear-driven cam sound like yours. I get heads lookin my way when the light turns green :D

  • The dyno software has a smoothing algorithm built in that you can select several levels on.

  • and it had a vance and hines on it.

  • LOL it says its a Twobrothers at the start of the vid and it IS.

  • My dad just bought a 91 vfr750 and that is one fun and easy (but heavy) bike to ride. Its just about 1/2 sec faster than my 03sv650s in the 1/4 mile at least for now haha. Great bikes though.

  • @DesmonsterS4RS: My Friends says the same when I'm coming to school on that monster ;)

    I'ts sounds that because its V-engine and Cylinders are working in pairs, not like in a regular engine in CBR or something.

  • That sounds AWESOME! reminds me alot of a small block V8.

  • Hi, great bike!

    Mine (VFR800fi '98 PowerCommander II and BSM Vampire) does 108.9 HP at the rearwheel (appr. 120 Bhp)(Tovami Run).

  • Hi repelsteelje12345 what is a BSM Vampire? I just got my 99 VFR800i Dyno'd with a Micron Slip on Exhaust, K&N air filter, 91 octane gasoline and got 102 HP...

  • I absolutely love this bike! Like the older model VFRs.

  • CBRCRX IS WRONG what do you think makes the whining noise its the cam gears and crank gear and idler gear.,I have one and it shows it in the manual.

  • I just bought an 01 after seein heaps of vids on here. How much power you got? I have a K&N and Staintune. I'm waitin to get a power commander III USB but want to see what everyone else gets first. Nice sounding can!

  • I miss mine I had a 2000 Pearl Yellow Great bike awesome sound

  • I got a similar power reading off my 89 FH which had no air filter and a micron exhaust. Please don't ask me which micron :) (power system or something I think) it was 11 years ago now since I sold it. Though I'm told it is still in service.

  • the early v4s(up to 97) have chain driven cams(they are lighter too), these later models have belt driven. I have a 94 with a V&H pipe and regeared(one down FT, one up back). I beat a 900rr to about 100mph...then the 900 had much more on the top..these are AMAZING bikes!! check out my vid, VFR without pipe, the sound, amazing!!

  • Wrong. The VFRs had gear driven cams from 1986-2001. Then the 02up VFRs are chain driven. There have never been belt driven VFRS. Also the 98-01 are the lightest with the most power. Equal to the power of the newer vtec VFRs which are heavier.

  • Thats funny since I thought the VFR's distinct "whirring" noise was due to the gear driven cams that they introduced in 1986. So bulletproof infact that you can see 150,000 or more miles before an engine swap. cbrcrx is correct, I have ridden a 97 VFR750 and a 2004 VTec and I ended up buying the 2001 pre vtec model.

  • I recall seeing an article in a U.K. bike magazine several years ago. A courier in the U.K. did 400,000+ miles on one engine, put a second engine in & did another 400,000 miles.

  • The best sounding bike engine bar NONE. Mines got 90k km on it and still going hard...

  • I love the exhaust note of a cam gear driven VFR!!

    Mine has just gone through 94,000km.

  • 125,000km here, and still going strong!

  • Only on a honda! Whoop!

  • I have a VTR, I like the sound of it. But, this VFR sounds so much better.

  • This makes me want one even more. lol =P Awesome!

  • Amazing sound.. :-P

  • With the right set of tires(Qualifyers)currently, or some Pilots, the bike seems alot lighter when flippin it in the twisties.

  • If this bike weren't so heavy, it would be the best bikes for road. I luv the sound, luv the look, don't fancy the weight.

  • I was worried about the weight when I sold my old '89 FH, but the pre-VTECs are actually much lighter feeling to ride and certainly feels much lighter to ride that you think from looking at it :)

  • VFR800 was built on the VTR1000 chassis, its the lightest of the VFRs, have you ridden one? I agree with you but they are not THAT bad in real world terms.

  • japanese v4 engineering..

  • luv the sound

  • Gear-driven cams....only way to go!

  • I still wonder why they had to give the latest generation VFR chain-driven cams. Really really stange.

  • What I heard is the market for these bikes and most newer sport bikes was to have quieter engines. Quieter is definately not for me. My neighbors??? Maybe.

  • Cost - the tolernances required to make the cams are far far higher than for a chain. Gears are far more expensive, but I agree, they made the VFR part of what it was.

  • sounds kinda like a mini v8

  • Exactly my thoughts when I bought the bike, with the gear drive whinning....

  • I think that's why ALOT of people buy the bike. It simply sounds like nothing else.

  • That sounds frikkin' ballsy. beautiful.

  • Cool!!! Thanks!!!

  • SHhhHShshShShShShShS POO
