SOLD

1999 VFR800
48088 Miles

$1650 OBO

Update: I paid registration and brought bike current, California tags are good through April '25.

Clean California title, California spec bike. Bike is located in the Auburn, CA area. ~ 30 minutes east of Sacramento.

Purchased as a project bike and did a light restoration on it.

Previous owner had started to make it a streetfighter so the left/right panels and front chin panel are missing. Bike is otherwise complete.

- Brake calipers front and rear rebuilt and powder coated, new brake pads. Brakes have been "de-linked", front and rear separate now.
- Stainless braided brake lines front and rear.
- Chain and sprockets have very few miles on them, less than about 3K.
- New stator and a "Wire my Bike" wiring kit for the R/R.
- New brake and clutch levers.
- Fresh Michelin Road tire on rear. Front tire is new Bridgestone, no miles, but is an old-stock tire.
- Zero Gravity double bubble screen.

Brake & clutch fluids and oil just changed 6/1.

All lights, horn working. Headlight does have some sun fading.

Tank has dents, dings and is faded but interior of tank still looks new, no rust, bad gas.

Bike spent most of it's life on the west coast so it shows a little more age but mechanically is solid.

A few hundred dollars for the missing panels would make this a nice, complete VFR. I've run this generation of VFR well over 120K miles without issues.

Test rides only with full cash in hand.

 

I'm interested to know how well the brakes work. Is the rear master the stock size and are the three pistons working off of it? Same questions for the front.

 

The previous owner had the brake work done by a local shop, BHP Motosports in Sacramento. I have some receipts but not a complete log of what was done. The rear master appears to be the stock size, I didn't look at the cylinder markings. The front is the stock 1/2" bore. They seem to work fine for me.

 

let me know if you don't sell it by the Fall, I would make an offer?

 

I am in Montana, I do not know exactly when I will be down there?
I have relatives in Auburn and Tahoe so it is only a matter of time!
