    I think everybody should text him that it's not a VFR.

    Looks like a pretty good value!

    Even though I already own TWO VF750's.....if one like that turned up for sale LOCALLY....I'd be ALL over it! :)

    I don't have the red version anyway so there's that......:)

    From what I understand.........the third generation VFR's are not supposed to be called "Interceptors" either.

    Is this correct?

    I am reminded sometimes that "Interceptor" is exclusively a US moniker.

    But...
    1990 - 1997 VFRs are not "Interceptors". The VF1000R is also not an Interceptor. But the VF1000F is.

    There are some later VFRs that also had the "Interceptor" name dropped in the US but then brought back.

    One of the RC26 bikes I bought (one of two Blue '87's) was advertised as a "Honda Interceptor".......not a "VFR". I found it by using both "VFR" and "Interceptor" as my search words. Had I not used "Interceptor" in my search.....I would not have found the ad.

    It was located about an hours drive away so I bought it. Think I paid just under $1K. Came with a tool kit and owner's manual. Lock broke for fuel cap - otherwise bike was pretty much complete and in decent condition.

    I learned something....use "Interceptor"...not just "VFR" to search for these bikes!

    You also have to throw in a "InterSeptor" every now and then too. Scored some cool stuff with that one before.
