I have a 99 VFR. Love the sound, like none other. Also have a mini VFR, a Magna. Nothing like a V4 bike for a motorcycle. Did you know Mr. Honda himself said the V4 is the best engine he ever built, although I am not sure if he was referring to the VFR, I think he was.

VFR 800FI its very valued, so you can get money back anytime, and its just decent. I changed it+ for a vwgolf, girlfriend went for doctor and i bought a cbr900rr150hp and the 2door bimmer.I wont miss any of both old focus models.

im sry but kawasakis are shit!

you can get much more aggro notes out of an RC31 no doubt! i was surprised that it did not sweep the VFR away (good bike though).

Yep, I found out my transmission was bad... So as I'm tearing it apart and putting it back together, I might drill into the main gallery and solve this nasty little oil problem once and for all. If I do the main gallery mod, I don't have to screw with my oil filter, and I get 90PSI right to the cams!
But I wish the asshole told me the transmission 6th gear was shot before I bought it. Other than that, it rode great when I had it out. Very punchy, but plenty of snarl around 6,000.

it's the camshaft material... nicknamed 'chocolate cams'.. if yours are in good condition, dont bank on them staying that way too long if you work it. :o)
I'm fairly sure there's an oil feed mod you can do to minimise the deterioration, or perhaps there's a replacement cam available???
Just so everyone knows the RC went down in Dec...sad day...good news is she is back strong with sat high mounts :) All you I4 posers can be quiet (or be as loud as you want) because the sato will cover up the girly bikes you ride

The RC51 has a full yoshi on it now. The VFR is the old bike. They actually are in a historical sense the same pedigree. Read your history books girls and boys, the VFR is based off the racing V of yester-year.
