* Two owners from new
* Good cosmetic condition
* Requiring recommissioning
Introduced in 1986, Honda's VFR750F had a lot to live up to. A capable sports bike, introduced to compete with the likes of Suzuki's GSX-R750 and Yamaha's FZ750, it performed incredibly well as an all-round 'sports tourer'. Purchased new by the vendor's late employer, the machine is presented in very good cosmetic condition, an honest and genuine example. The only obvious deviation from factory specification being an older Honda-type vented rectifier to combat the age-old problems with the later item. The machine is offered with two keys, an owner's manual, toolkit and V5C. The machine has been turned over regularly with a slave battery but has seen little use in recent years. Accordingly, the machine will require a replacement battery together with recommissioning to a greater or lesser extent and is therefore sold strictly as viewed. A fantastic opportunity to purchase a rapidly appreciating classic.
