Honda Interceptor description

1986 Honda VFR 700. This has some historical interest as it was Japan's answer to the US import tariff on motorcycles 750cc or larger to protect Harley Davidson. Although it is 700cc, this bike is fast and I suspect would hold its own with current bikes of similar displacement, if not smoke them. This is due to the V4 engine that produces huge power per cc. This would make a fun track bike. This bike is in very nice condition. Not perfect, but not far from it. A few paint chips on the tank (tried to show in photos), broken tab on tail cowl (hence use of bungie net to ensure it stays on). This bike starts and runs the way it should. No issues. This bike is ready to ride. Tires have tread, although you might want to replace due to age. Chain good. All electrics work including engine cooling fan. Override switch allows rider to turn on fan manually. BIke is not currently licensed, but locals may come by to look and start it. You will not be disappointed.

The Honda Collection Halls in Motegi

Fri, 14 Oct 2011

I thought you may have to be from a certain era to enjoy the Honda Collection Halls in Motegi but I was wrong. This immaculate museum has hundreds of race and road bikes on display starting with the first ever (wooden) motorcycle built right up to the amazing machines Pedrosa and co are campaigning this year. Being part of the Honda owned Motegi Twin Ring circuit complex, I was expecting it to be a Honda only zone so was amazed to see lots of iconic bikes from other manufacturers also on display.

Americans reported 46,667 motorcycle thefts in 2011, a 6% decrease from 49,791 stolen motorcycles in 2010, reports the National Insurance Crime Bureau.
