REDUCED PRICE: $6695.00 package deal You've heard it all before: marriage + baby = motorcycle for sale! I purchased this low-mileage beauty from a retired engineer several years back and find myself adding fewer and fewer miles each season – grand total on the odometer at this point is just under 8K miles. The Seventh Generation VFR is a technological marvel—offering supremely capable handling, all-day comfort, and a WHOLE LOTTA TORQUE in one very attractive package. I’ve owned three different generations of the Honda Interceptor, and this one really stands out as a great all-around bike. This excellent condition, freshly inspected (and adult-owned) cycle features the following accessories: DAM exhaust canister with removable baffles (handmade in the Netherlands—supreme quality, performance, and sound. Look them up!) OEM exhaust canister 3 windscreens (OEM, Zero-Gravity Double Bubble, Puig Racing) Matching OEM luggage (top case, side panniers, mounting system) – literally used one time! Extra seat (OEM) Cover Factory service manual Owner’s manual Front and rear Pit-Bull stands Located in the Rochester NY area. Local pick-up only. No rides. $6695.00 package deal

Buy the DAM, disconnect the cable, and SMILE! You will not be disappointed.

Not to hijack this thread, but TheRealDude's post got me thinking - it seems like a very small portion of this forum is used for trip/ride and lodging recommendations. So what have you guys got? Where are the scenic places to ride and the fun/safe/interesting places to stay across this continent (and others)?? Obviously, pics are appreciated!

I am a firm believer in YUASA BATTERIES! Yes, they cost nearly twice as much as the competition, but they really do last twice as long as well.

The MAIN FUSE is the cheapest and easiest possibility.

Rip that sucker out! (And remove the cable to avoid an annoying status light on the dash) It will run and sound great without it, but passing noise/emissions mandates at inspection may prove difficult in some locales.

At least three mint condition 98-99's with under 25k miles have been available here locally in the past year for $2200-$2800. I almost purchased one but went with a VFR1200 instead. BTW, you'll love the 5th gen....absolutely beautiful machines.

$2200 or less (if you're a patient shopper).

Don't get me wrong...I'm a porker at the moment, but at 250#, my physician (and hiking buddies) will tell you that all of my numbers are great--despite the waist size. There are plenty of 6'1 250ish guys around who are in quite good shape.

BMI is essentially meaningless as it does not take skeletal structure or muscle mass into account. Like the OP, I am 6'1 and often hover around 250 lbs. Having three VFRs, I can say with certainty that both the engine and the suspension perform perfectly well for a rider of that size. I happen to prefer a more leaned-over riding position, but I have taller friends who swear by both heli-bars and lsl risers.
