1998 Honda VFR 800 Interceptor without exhaust

1998 Honda VFR 800 Interceptor with down pipes and header only. Bike was properly warmed up to 180 degrees Fahrenheit before video test.

Also, it is a 781 cc V4 motor with gear driven cams hence the "mini V8" sound and whine that you hear.


I had to send my Ohlin's shock in for warranty service so I figured I'd take some video of the lovely sound without the Staintune High Mount exhaust on...

Excuse the dirty condition of the bike. The shock leaked after a 200 mile ride in rainy weather and I didn't have time for a thorough wash.

Mods: K&N Air Filter (Switching to BMC this summer), PCIII USB with Stock Exhaust/Air Filter Map( I know I know, I'll get a custom map when the funds are available for dyno time.)

Normally have the Ohlin's Rear Shock on, and a Staintune high mount exhaust. Other Mods are cosmetic. Going to put Sonic Springs or Race Tech Springs in the forks later this summer and hopefully new valving as well.

@reaper6676

cats were only on the California models from 1998-1999 and then on all of them from 2000 and on AFAIK.

@crayman31 depends on the headers that you get, the stock ones go 4-2-1 like the ones in the vid but the stock ones have a cat at the 2-1, mine go from 4-1 cauz i have aftermarket
