“In a market segment characterized by extremes, Honda’s VFR has always trod the middle ground––never the fastest, or the lightest, or the quickest way around a racetrack, but always a standout, biased more toward balance than bravado, a sportbike for the real world.” That’s how Motorcyclist magazine introduces Honda’s legendary Interceptor in this timeline of the model.
The sixth generation of the VFR had a lengthy run and it introduced some significant changes: linked brakes, optional ABS, optional hard luggage, and VTEC, Honda’s variable valve timing technology that opens up extra valves at higher RPMs.
In 2007, Honda celebrated the 25th Anniversary of their venerable sport tourer with a special red/white/blue paint job.
Manufactured in November of 2006, this example is VIN: JH2RC466X7M900660. The seller “purchased from a 60 year old friend who rode it very rarely before giving up riding entirely.”
The odometer shows 4,549 miles. The seller has covered less than 100 miles during their ownership.
