2010 Honda VFR1200F Motorcycle Review

[priscott1963]

i took this bike out for a test ride,and a triumph sprint 1050 st,and this bike lost in all counts.the triumph 1050 st blow it away in the real world.plus i saved over £3000. it's just not right,sound's shit,triumph 1050 st sounds great..

[tgrman1]

The look of it is quite bland. Needs more vents or fins like Kawa. The way it looks now it could be mistaken for a scooter.

[flyingfishnet]

what the hell is this got to do with an assessment . waste of time . no thanks

[pussywussy5]

0:38 wat.

[bikerchiel]

honda baby...

[Unkovsk]

sht the fk up and let me hear the motor, shit!

[dpapaioannow]

i like it too...i just wish it had 60hp more lol

[hateutubepolicy]

I like Honda bikes they make quality motorcycles , but new Honda cars are garbage . I know as i own one.

[khristian49]

I that Honda VTR1200F.

[rg0r]

Looks like crap.



[khristian49]

It look like a God.

[coffeebarcowboy]

I tested it, liked it, bought it and LOVE IT!

[marunikenhanabishi]

I like this design. Please make the next v4 superbike like this. I'm fed up with two separeted head lights. 

[brybish]

mybe it looks good in the flesh but i think this maybe a pup!

[brybish]

@brybish er just watched another video and i am not sure.slim clean design shame about no v-tec but i think honda know what they are doing. mybe:)

[hedgehogoggles]

Can't say I'll be changing my Blackbird for this.... You could have done better, Honda!

[MDIVISIONRULES]

That's too objective lol!

[alientestsubject]

thank gosh, no Vtec. the 2005 VFR i owned was a POS

[ghost321000]

they now modify to roll finaly

[shawnrexroad]

dear honda, please make me a v4 sportbike that kicks bmw's ass...and weighs less than 450 lbs..wet. p.s. dont make it look quite like this :)

[texascycle]

OMG that is ugly from the front ... it doesn't have saddle bags ??? ... I thought it was supposed to be the V5 from motogp? This really feels like a paid honda advertisement / spokesman here

[TheSuperMotoHooligan]

Review? Pfffffffffffffffftttt.

[Charles2337]

This guy got paid by Honda to overly praise this bike.

[NoFukinNamesLeft]

Nice vid but it's not a review!!

[cynic150]

the background music was distracting and made it difficult to hear the commentary.

The video images were okay. the first part, history, was too long.

[spacemangoes]

I heard there was a new AUTOMATIC motorcycle came out? Anyone know the name?

[Mikes1800]

I love Honda, been riding one since 1973 but I think Honda missed the mark on styling and I sure don't care for the dual clutch paddle shift set up. No clutch lever and no shifter pedal would take a lot of getting used to. They packed a lot of new technology in this bike that experienced riders might find awkward. I know I would.

[racernate02]

Shaft drive, heavy, too many electronics, and not to mention UGLY. As an owner of many previous generation VFRs, I can say undoubtedly that the RC30 and RC45 are turning over in their graves.

[agusta1968]

@racernate02

I agree.

I wish they would have gone the direction of the RC30.

More like the racing V4 Aprilia made, only with a single sided swingarm and colors of the original RC30

[shamarone]

@racernate02 LOL smart money would've been to make this engine a 1000 and then spin off a chained RC version (worthy 30, 45, & 51 successor) and a shafted VFR tourer. guess they got caught up with the 1.2L for longterm marketing purposes. like the technology, but honda does seem a bit disconnected from their own history.

[nigthepig1]

I have a beautiful 1998 silver vfr 800. Like the look of the vfr1200 but far too expensive for me sadly. Can't believe the chap who says can't have a vfr without vtec....omg vtec is what made the 2002 vfr inferior to my vfr 800fi. The power curve is nothing like a smooth and all for no reason and no benefit.

[fuzzydragon]

a new gen honda v4?....is anybody else thinking return of the Magna muscle bikes of the 80's :P

[Marques0008]

@fuzzydragon I had a V65 Magna(my first bike!) in college. It was fantastic! Simple, powerful, and reliable.. I hope Honda makes a standard like that in the near future, or I may consider the Ducati Streetfighter.

[medicinepharmacy]

Thanks so much for sharing dis vid :D :D

[flitzig]

cool

[Shawnlovessvideos]

172.72 hp @ 10,000 rpm

[cynic150]

As usual, the boom boom music gets in the way of the commentary.

AND WHAT ABOUT THE SOUND OF THE BIKE?????

[MMuRdA]

booooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooooooooooooooo

[euheide]

I love your reviews. But they would be even better in HD ;)

[blackadder183]

damn, they ruined the bike: the style, the power... i love the VFR800, in any day. the style is awesome, the sound of exausht, the power... If honda wants to please the customers they have to do more than that, especially they have to put VTEC, VFR without Vtec is like having a Ferrari and then trade for a Benz. Honda disapointed me at all:(

[nigthepig1]

@blackadder183 I have a 1998 vfr 800 fi. New vfr 1200 looks nice but so expensive. VFR with VTEC is pants and is what made 2002 vfr inferior. No advantage and ruined the power curve .

[StrangelyBrownNo1]

What a terrible review... or... was there even a review in there at all? Just sounds like Honda marketing spin to me. And no real opinions offered at all.

[s1o1m]

look is #@%@%@#%@#%@ <-- shiiiit!!

i will get the vrf 800 over this funny looking moster

[Rainb0wSeven]

A shaft-drive VFR = WIN! I'll be buying one, for sure!

[MARKSWZ]

Oh ands its automatic . (manual is also available)

[emilyarelyvictor]

A K I R A is back...love it, so ugly it looks good! wheres the repsol colors?

[dudeacus]

I agree that this bike is as ugly as hell. I loved the look of the VFR800. If they're going to label it a Sport-Touring, have it outfitted with standard hard bags. I'd pick the Concourse 1400 over this, any day.

[Rainb0wSeven]

Yeah, the VFR800 is a great-looking bike, but the VFR1200F isn't in the same class. I like that it looks like a BMW. I think it'll be very popular with the older crowd, who want to do some touring but don't want a Goldwing or a Harley.

And, being a Honda, it'll be extremely reliable.

[theodoredelta]

a detail that you΄ ve missed: vfr ΄s got a v-4 engine. BMWs don΄ t.

[ElitePower]

I like it, and I think it's a fantastic idea, Although this video, that amounts to nothing more than a commercial, is kinda pointless. Can't wait for a good, honest critiquing of the bike.

[jeevz42]

i wanna no numbers not what a goes like

[2wheels2fast]

im getting another 98 fireblade

power of dreams

not a fan of this bike the nose is to blunt and its almost inspired buy bmws uglyness

[fireworkstube]

It really threw me off the first time I saw it but after a while the design isn't _that_ bad. There's something about it. It's the head light area that seems off. The rest is very nicely detailed. It's a lot like the BMW K. I wish they'd use a V4 in a smaller capacity.

[mikepartyboy]

more companies need a "better" sport touring bike.

They all tend to be heavy and can't really flick around much.

I say make a 400lb sportbike with an ergonomic of this VFR bike.

[clevername333]

Strange how japan is really falling behind on the styling and design end of things.

I will stick with my KTM.

Even in Japan, I saw more Italian, German, and American bikes on the road than the jap bikes. Although the TW225 hill climber was popular in Tokyo.

[ruubern]

ugly as hell!

[jlarry1]

haha I'm not very familiar with the previous generations of this bike, but I kinda like the styling of this new maching. :)

[rheaMDC21]

One of the ugliest bikes i have ever seen! Thank you HONDA but i will stick with my R1

[arglebarglefoofara]

wrong.... come on Honda....

[UltraSWG]

The BMW K1300S is better than this fugly piece of shit.

[billmaa]

This is most disappointing motorcycle ever made

[boysinblack]

Well thats one way to take a great bike and make it shit ugly.

[billmaa]

Right on brother!

[ZZRgirl11]

well that was a great commercial...

[akamikeg]

haha so true, i think they only mentioned once that the thing weighs as much as an orca whale...and even looks like one? not so sure. btw, like your username! "ZZR", do you own one?

[ZZRgirl11]

lol... yeah, me and my wife had one ...(this is her youtube account, It throws some folks off when I post comments) she's now a 675girl if you want to get specific...

[wreckerpecker]

I see the main issue being that I can buy two older models for the price of one new one. That is hard to swallow.

[TheTrapjaw]

Muy buena moto,como todo lo que hace Honda.

Saludos desde Argentina.

[Hawkster0001]

no habla espanol

[MRSketch09]

@Vid

I love the styling/look of the bike. But there is something about it, that turns me off... I can't place my finger on it.
