Hello from new member… quick question!!!

Hey everyone!!!

I am very happy to become a part of this community. I am looking to get a vfr, and I have a question regarding year models that possibly meet specific criteria.

Is there a year range and specific model that has each of the following:
1 - gear driven cam
2 - 180 degree crank
3 - double round headlights

this would be my dream bike, so I hope someone can let me know if this exists. I am most interested in the double headlights and 180 degree crank, if this is a possibility.

Otherwise, I think I’ll look for a vfr1200 with hard side bags and a tail bag. Anyone looking to sell one??

Thank you everyone.

 

Nope. I had to make my own...

 

What model year did you start with?

 

1986 VFR700F RC26

1993 900RR front cowls, headlights
1993 CBR600F2 wheels and forks

180 degree crank
Gear driven cams

 

if you're not afraid of carbs, look for a VFR from 1994-1997, one of the best all-arounders ever made.





forgetabout the crank, nobody cares.

as a first bike the VFR1200 might be alot too much.

 

Beautiful bike. Thank you for the pics and info.

 

I’m good with carbs, and I agree about the 1200 being a monster. Its torque curve is near vertical at low rpm, which matches the curve on my 2013 cb1100. However, the 1100 starts to flatten out around 5-6k rpm while the 1200 continues near vertical for a few more thousand rpm. This similarity is why I’m looking at the 1200, but I’d love to find an older bike with more character.

In addition to the cb1100, I have a 2002 cb750, a 2007 vtx1800, and a nut and bolt frame off restored 1981 CBX.
