  1. I'm sadly selling my 2003 Sixth Gen VFR800 Interceptor. I'm the age that I needed to get something more upright. Have tons of pics on the Craigslist ad: https://goldcountry.craigslist.org/mcy/d/cedar-ridge-2003-honda-vfr-800/7649476130.html This machine has been lovingly taken care of while in my possession for the last 8,000 miles. The prior owner and I have maintained meticulous records. She runs great, and aside from the rectifier/stator failing (which is a common issue for these machines) has always started right up and ran strong. The VTEC V4 engine is silky smooth and delivers awesome power. - Factory tool kit - Registration good through 6/2024 - Always hangared or covered, never ridden in the rain. This was my fair weather bike. - New Michelin Road 6 tires (1,062 miles) - Helibars handle bar risers (have the original bars also) - Have a spare 15T front sprocket (came with the bike, but I put the factory one back on) - Spare K&N Oil filter - Wired for battery tender - Locking Honda rear luggage trunk - Ram stem ball mount - At 40,105 miles, Tip to tail inspection by Honda service center including valve clearance check. + bearings ok + steering ok + swing arm and linkage ok + suspension and seals ok + chain adjusted + sprockets ok + valve clearance check ok Within the last 200 miles: - New stator and rectifier from RMSTATOR - Aftermarket USB power outlet and volt meter - New battery (Lithium Phosphate Powerpsonic HyperSport) - Changed oil and filter (Motul 5100 4T10-40, K&N 204-1 filter) - Changed clutch and brake fluid - Checked and topped off coolant I did drop the bike at zero mph on the side of the road in loose dirt and was intending to sand and paint the side fairing. I bought a new set to keep the bike up and running while I did that, so the bike comes with TWO complete sets of fairings. This bike is turn-key and ready to ride home. Asking $4,000 OBO. Reasonable offers will be entertained, low ball offers will not be responded to. Not looking for a trade. Typical: M1, helmet, and cash in hand to test ride. Here's one pic so you don't have to visit Craigslist if you don't want to. Asking $4,000 OBO
  2. I put the T-REX no cut frame sliders on mine.......Work great. https://www.t-rex-racing.com/2002-2020-Honda-VFR800-Interceptor-frame-sliders-p/n38-3.htm Cheers!
  3. Thanks for the warm welcome! The previous owner was a mechanic -- changed the brake fluid every six months, etc. Had a detailed printout of all of the maintenance he's done and when it was done. Top shelf. And yes, I'm mechanically minded also and will thoroughly enjoy taking great care of the bike. Rode the bike home and was comfortable in just a few minutes. What an awesome sounding, smooth riding machine. A little worried about the rectifier / regulator / stator issues that some have mentioned -- can't tell if that's only 2002 and back or if I should proactively change mine out. Any suggestions on a) Whether I should and b) What to put in? Cheers!
  4. Well, I've wanted one of these machines for 30 years. Finally bit the bullet. Found a beautiful '03 in Norcal. Snatched it up and can't wait for good weather! Been lurking for a week or so and wanted to say hello. Bought it from the second owner who babied this machine. 34K miles. Man am I excited!!!
