Normal 0 1985 Honda VF 500F Motorcycle for Parts or Rebuild Important!!! Please read!!! This is an AS-IS sale. This item is a USED item. THIS ITEM IS NOT RUNNING AND WILL NEED A COMPLETE OVERHAUL! It is in pieces, needs a thorough cleaning and tires. It was never downed. I acquired this bike back in 2004 as compensation for a job I did. The client could not pay cash so I took the bike as payment. I was planning to repair it myself (at that time it needed a carb job). Any spare parts that I have, I will include with the bike. The bike was kept indoors till 2011 at which time it was moved outdoors (it was either me or the bike). At the time I acquired the bike it was in running condition until the carburetor started acting up. Anyway, I really haven’t looked at the bike since so if you have specific questions, ask me before placing a bid. Please look at all the photos. I was planning to part out, but figured I’ll try the whole thing at a massive discount first. I also have a 1994 Honda CBR600 F2 for sale. See my listing also on eBay. This vehicle is sold as PICK-UP ONLY!!! If you do not plan to pick up, do not bid. Keep in mind, as stated above, vehicle is not running. The Honda VF500F (badged as "Interceptor" for the US and Canada market) is a 498 cc displacement sport motorcycle manufactured from 1984 to 1986. It was part of Honda's family of first generation V4 engine motorcycles (Interceptor - VF400F VF500F VF700F VF750F VF1000F). The VF500F was derived from the Japanese market VF400F (400 cc engine). It is not simply an overbored and/or overstroked version of the VF400F. The engine as well as the cycle are entirely specific, with very few common parts. The Honda VF500 engine was also used almost entirely unchanged in the Magna V30 standard motorcycle during the same two years. The VF500F was produced for the North American and European markets. The European market version also had a VF500F2 model which utilized a full fairing, whereas the VF500F had an upper half fairing with a lower cowl in front of the motor. The VF500F utilized a skeleton square tubular steel frame with front female slider forks and a rear mono-spring/damper suspension using a cast aluminum swingarm. It used a 16-inch front wheel with a 100/90-16 tire for reduced rotational inertia to make steering easier. The rear wheel is 18-inch with a 110/90-18 tire. It was replaced by the CBR600F "Hurricane" motorcycle in 1987.
