Otaylor38 Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 If you are talking about the 6th gen, they were not marketed as VFR's. They were only called Interceptors. Ooh i see. So they come from the factory with no stickers on the front side fairing? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspanyol Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I think they come w a sticker on both sides of the rear cowl that says Interceptor instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otaylor38 Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Sorry to hijack this thread with that question. I couldnt look at another vfr without thinking 'its missing its sticker, wonder if its been sprayed' haha To make it up to you. Hes a pic of my 6th gen with its new 8 spoker on after id had both wheels powdercoated, and the VFR sticker im talking of. Will go out and get a few decent pictures of it when the weathers right and I've recovered from my op. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer B4V4 Posted March 11, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted March 11, 2015 If you are talking about the 6th gen, they were not marketed as VFR's. They were only called Interceptors. Well not exactly correct. Although my '07 had no markings other than the "Interceptor" on the tail (which you have to look real close to see), my '03 has a big VFR tag. Looking back at these, I gotta say I loved that deep red colour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Cogswell Posted March 12, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted March 12, 2015 Another (probably silly) question from me here haha. Howcome do many of the US vfr's dont have the VFR sticker on the side on the plastics, above the radiators? Do they have them as standard? All the UK ones do, unless its had a bump and they havent been reapplied? Interestingly, factory 6th gen hard bags sold in the US say "Interceptor" on the badge. The bags I got from the UK say "VFR" on them. Similar to how the 1000RR is known as the Fireblade in Europe, that nomenclature is not used in the US. Apparently it's all in the local marketing . . .

VFR is the same in most European languages... Interceptor isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

czargee Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Here'e my 02 Viffer freshly plasti dipped, excluding the tank. It's ready for stickers to make it go faster. Pick her up this weekend. Weather permitting... Is that red trim on you wheels just wheel tape? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marriedman Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 That's rim tape. Easy enough to do yourself, but it is a little tedious if you are a perfectionist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
