Up for sale is my refurbished and ready to ride 1987 Honda VFR700F2 Interceptor. Original bodywork restored and painted in matching original Pearl Crescent White, with black accents throughout the bike. Several desirable upgrades, 22,375 miles, mechanically and cosmetically inspected, cleaned, updated, replaced, repainted, repaired...anything needing attention was accomplished. This Interceptor is in excellent condition, no issues, no disappointments. The paint is new, the mechanics are correct, the tank is rust-free inside. The bike starts and runs perfectly hot or cold, runs straight and has a unique, modern vibe on a vintage bike.This second generation Interceptor is historically significant in Honda's sport bike history, was ahead of it's time, and combines the 11,500 RPM redline of a smaller displacement engine with the mid-range power of a 700. The V4 is a jewel of engineering and has a sound and feel unmatched by inline four cylinder engines. These are unique bikes and will never lose a dime of value.More about this bike:- Production number 647- This generation of VFR produced only in '86 & '87 (USA)- Color is Pearl Crescent White with reproduction gold decals- Rated at 105 HP (stock)- Please visit my Flickr photo gallery for cosmetic details.Modifications & Updates:- 17-inch front wheel from CBR600 (in place of OEM 16") with fresh Avon Road Rider- Wheels finished in black (from original white) with white painted pinstripe- Galfer stainless steel brake lines, front & rear- OEM mufflers shortened 5 1/2 inches and painted black -- great sound, great look- Carb jet kit- Rear fender eliminator with original turn signal and seat lock mounts shaved from subframe- LED rear turn signals- Powdercoated engine covers in "Bronze Texture" -- clutch & alternator- Seat recovered in marine grade vinyl- Front fender reshaped for a lighter look- NOS front turn signals mounted with shorter stalks to tuck the signals closer to the body- Reproduction windscreen- ODI hand grips- New OEM fuel petcock- Various rubber mounts, grommets, etc. replaced as needed- Original owners manual- Bike is completely cleaned and detailedRecent Maintenance:- New spark plugs- Valves adjusted- Compression checked- Carburetors cleaned, VITON O-rings & bowl gaskets installed- New fuel lines and filter- New carb boots (to intake manifold)- Carbs sync'd- K&N air filter- Fork rebuild with new seals and lower bushes- Master cylinders rebuilt (front brake & clutch) with new sight glass installed- Fluids flushed- Brake calipers bench cleaned, new Kevlar pads front & rear- Tapered steering stem bearings installed- New chain and sprockets (OEM gearing)The bike is located in Antioch IL, north of Chicago near the WI border.
