Let's start of by saying this is probably one of the nicest VFR's of this generation in the country. It is in mint, near flawless condition. On a scale of 1-10, this bike is a 9+ cosmetically and a perfect 10 mechanically. You will absolutely not believe this bike is 25 years old if you were to see it in person. Please look at the photos carefully. The bike has approximately 15,700 original miles and I acquired it this year from the original owner who bought it new in Pennsylvania in 1987. It is somewhat rare because of the factory pearl white paint and the fact that it is a 700cc (as opposed to 750cc) tariff bike. Evidently dealers were only alloted one bike in this color at that time. Please read the excerpt below. In the USA, the picture is more complicated. There were three models, and they lasted for two years. First, there was a 750cc model essentially the same in appearance and specification (except for the usual Canada vs USA differences) to the Canadian model. Next, there was also a destroked 700cc tariff-beater, called the VFR700 Interceptor. Both these models were white with red and blue trim, and round gauges. Thirdly, and most interestingly, was the VFR700F2. This bike was all white, with understated gold pinstriping, and an automotive-style instrument panel which was essentially what you see now on the 90-93 VFR. In fact, this model bears many visual similarities to the 90-93 models. This F2 model was also available in dark blue and silver metallic, with silver wheels. This bike needs absolutely nothing but a new owner. It has brand new tires, steel braided brake lines, full Supertrapp exhaust (I have the original pipes which will go with the bike) which are jetted perfectly, race tech front fork springs, brand new sprockets (rear sprocket is a 47 tooth as opposed to stock 45 tooth) and chain. In addition, the bike just had all fluids (brake, coolant, engine) just changed as well as a complete tune up. The 1986 - 1989 VFR's (second generation) are the lightest, fastest, and most sport orientated of this incredible model line and many consider it to be the best bike ever built. Here is the opportunity to own one of the finest examples in the country of this iconic marque. Please click on the link below for more detailed information. I will be posting additional pictures in the next couple of days.

This bike has never been down, dropped, or ridden in the rain. The modifications I mentioned above are to address the weak areas (front fork springs, exhaust, brakes, etc.) that the bike came with from the factory. These modifications only enhance the performance of the bike and make riding it all that more enjoyable.
