The seller of this 1984 Honda VF500F Interceptor has taken phenomenal care of the bike over his ownership, but perhaps the best part of this bike was not available in 1984. It rolls on wheels from a CBR600F, which means it accepts modern 17-inch rubber, but doesn’t lose space for useful amenities like a center…
The 1986 Suzuki GSXR-1100 gave the world its first peek into the future of road-going superbikes, showing that big bore engines did not necessitate portly chassis and that outright speed did not preclude sharp handling. Based on the already cutting edge GSXR-750, the 1,100cc Gixxer cut the first mile of trail for today’s featherweight liter-class…
