Here is a nice 1986 VFR750 F it has 29000 miles on. It starts and runs well but I’m sure it could use new plugs and maybe a carb system clean out. the rear tire has a lot of tread but has some age cracks. Both tires have new stems on them. The body is in really good shape, but it needs a few, small things to make it very very nice. What you see is what you get please call Terry at 440-478-1964 with any questions. Great classic collectable Honda 750 with the same horsepower as a CBX six cylinder. 104hp.

P.s. this bike comes with the original exhaust, but the Yoshimura one that it’s installed sounds so sweet. You have a hard time putting it back to original.

Also has Corbin seat And original solo set up.

Aaron posted a VFR750F in 2019, “In 1986, Honda was hungry to catapult itself past the other Japanese marques in the sportbike arms race, and to cure its new V4s reputation for weak valve trains.

The VFR750F delivered. Under Fred Merkel, Wayne Rainey and Bubba Shobert, the bikes cleaned up in AMA. And under a crew from Cycle World that included Nick Ienatsch and a motley crew of racers and journalists, blew the ’86 Suzuki GSXR750’s 24-hour speed record out of the water by nearly 20 mph. Follow the link to that story at the end of this writeup. You won’t regret it. The red-white-and-blue beasts achieved the feat thanks to an improved 105-horsepower 750cc V4 that represented a 20-horsepower gain over the Magnas and fixed reliability questions. The bikes were also something like 40 pounds lighter than the previous model.”

While reading through various articles and specs I stumbled upon a cool story by Mitch Boehm that was publised on Motorcyclist Online. Mitch was able to participate in a grueling test to see how worthy the ’86 Interceptor really is. If you have a few minutes, “Honda’s 1986 VFR750F Interceptor – In 24 Hours, Honda Proved Its Second-Gen Interceptor Was Fast & Durable” was a fun read.

Check out the bike’s history on Old Bike Barn . “Because Honda was so desperate to gain back the trust of consumers, they went into manufacturing the VFR750 fully aware that they would be taking a financial hit on every bike. Undeterred, Honda developed a new motorcycle that was so impressive that it was still on the market over a decade later.”

Today’s example is not low miles, but it looks to be in good shape. The seller shows the blemishes and you can see more photos on ebay. Check it out!

Good luck to the buyer and seller.
