Honda had a lot riding on the VFR750F when it arrived in 1986, not the least of which was having to live down the preceding VF750's appetite for camshafts and cylinder heads... The VFR750F was introduced a sports bike to compete with Suzuki's GSX-R750 and Yamaha FZ750, but with the passage of time found itself reclassified as a 'sports tourer', a role in which it excelled. The new V4 engine was slotted into a state-of-the-art aluminium beam frame, replacing the VF750F's steel chassis, while the latter's shaft drive was dropped in favour of a lighter and more efficient chain. Early VFR750Rs featured a conventional two-sided swinging arm while later (1990 onwards) models have used a single-sided swinger.
This example was acquired for the collection in August 2016. The sales receipt is on file and the machine also comes with a V5C document; sundry bills; and a quantity of MoTs (most recent expired March 2017).
