His voice makes me wanna hug him

I have a 2000 yellow vfr and love it. As john said it does everything well. Its fast , classy and reliable. Im 55 years old and have had prior year vfrs all were excellent. Great vid guys. Just dont let the secret out too much on the viffer!

I've met this guy and his bike at Alice's, and we chatted it up a bit since I was also riding my 99 VFR that day.

What a top bloke. I completely agree with his assessment of the RC46. I worked at a dealer and was able to ride the latest and greatest supersports, sports tourers... everything from the Tuono 1100 to the new R1. The RC46 VFR800 still shines as a brilliant motorcycle. The sound of the gear driven cams and the V4 with a good exhaust is up there with the best engine sounds in the world. As he says it is “fast enough”. This is absolutely correct.

I recently bought a 2001 model with 40k on the clocks,this video gives me a lot of confidence.As does the bike.From 15hp to over 100 could be a recipe for disaster but for this newly qualified uk rider it gets more attention than my wife,and it responds much less snappily than she does when i get things a bit wrong!

Great review, was thinking about buying one and after watching this I went and got it. Couldn't be happier. Tank range is amazing!

88+K ~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -As with the 3rd gen, -saw one with 98K and it ran like a top! -I've had both 3rd and 5th gen VFR's. Currently have a 91 (And will again one day pick up the super fast '00 Canary') -Oh and Kudos for going with the Milestone 90' White-rim color scheme. haha.So rad! :) I'd Love to find a set of White rims for my 91. -Just something about that color scheme that just works for this bike. It has 54K and runs like it just came off the assembly line. Just picked it up. Having the suspension gone over to have it back to an 11K feel :) -Which, aside from just keeping a reasonable maintenance schedule, is really all you have to do to have a smile on your face as you remember "OH YEAH! -I HAVE A VFR! I can just go R I D E today! :) -High miles on these just means they are That reliable. Props to John. -Such a civilized man on the best bike ever. Great vid! Thanks for the smiles. Cheers! :)

I'm 25 and I bought my '01 VFR when I was 21. I LOVE this bike. I also have a Sargent seat and can say it's a great butt cushion. Maybe someday when I have the time I'll do an R1 front end swap and add a Torocharger to it. I don't ever plan on selling her. Hopefully she'll live for a very long time.

Nice guy, Mr. John Joss.

I saw one of these on eBay, so I'm glad I found this. I've had two VFRs, a Gen 2 (?) 1986 750, with those beautiful sand-cast engine cases, and a 2009, all-white VTEC. The 1986 series seems primitive by today's standards, and I thought the VTEC heavy and hot-running, but otherwise pleasant. You and John have answered some of my questions about this model. Thanks!

Fantastic bike and a great owner. I'm considering one for my next bike (rode an 04 VFR for about a year) because they are such a great value. 3-4KUSD for one of the best bikes ever built is money very well spent.

The weight plays to your advantage at top speeds. It's so smooth and relaxed at 140 meanwhile the other 600s feel like they're gonna be taken up and thrown away by the wind at 120

007 IS ABSOLUTELY 100% correct.. for ALL AROUND best motorcycle ever made- the entire VFR Line up through Gen 5 takes the title.. although I have no issues with Gen 6 V-Tec like some people do.. it did change the bike in a dramatic way.. in MY Opinion but a little riding on V-Tec and you find it a different kind of enjoyable.. , ( I Own a 2000 and have owned a 95, and 2008 VFR) and I have yet to meet a current VFR owner who doesn't love his bike, say its the best bike he's ever had AND/ OR a previous VFR Owner who wishes like hell he'd never sold it- That's all you need to know about this bike- PERIOD- If you ever come across one that you can grab for $2500 and 50K or less- its the best decision you'll ever make. My 95 had 117K on the clock when I sold it for the 08 VFR

Got a '98. Love it.

I was the same with my sv 650s total fan boy of it haha, you feel the passion of this man for his bike this is awesome. I wanted to kept mine until my engine fails, it was my second, i sold it at 80000km because i had to across the earth and pay my flight ticket... i regret but i can know buy something fit me better... maybe this bike with the dual cbs to replace the missing abs doest exist on this model back in 2000

John J says yes indeed it is. He likes it!

classy bike and classy gentleman

Fantastic bike, I have a 2001, but with a few problems, the front sprocket is not completely fixed, it has a slight wobble but Honda never solved this problem, other than that, it has been a great bike.

Gabriel, would you consider using something to minimize the camera shake? They make very inexpensive things that hold the camera on a gimbal, with a weight hanging below that would do the trick for you... and for us! I do enjoy your videos otherwise.

What a legend!!!

Thank you so much for the answer. I'm just curious what to choose, the Sport Touring Series or the Double Bubble from Zero Gravity, but this one looks very good. Thanks again, and ride safe my friends.

90k miles :) , beautiful bike . . . plan on putting at least that many on my '07

$2,100?! Their website has it at $4,995. Show me where they are $2,100 and I'll have something new to think about.

Is this a Zero Gravity Sport Touring Series Windscreen? Thanks for the answer.

Ponad 140 000 km tysięcy przebiegu i dalej jak pracuje

Iv got one and i love it! :)

because 130hp just isn't enough?

europe isn't so much "easy riding" as you people overthere might think:) much police and people giving you speeding tickets :( (in germany)

Cary Grant. Siperb.

exhaust is not loud enough........ love my Delkevic

That whine noise isn't normal for a VFR. Did he have a SC?
