Buyer Guide: Honda VFR800
By Visordown on 01/10/2010 09:06:25
It’s one of the few ‘sensible’ cult bikes in the world and a machine with remarkably few flaws. The Honda VFR800 in fuel-injected or VTEC guise is a class act – but no motorcycle is entirely without issues...

Niall's Spin: Honda VFR800 (2002-2005)
By Niall Mackenzie on 11/10/2010 16:20:42
Arguably the original sports tourer and certainly the best - or at least that was the case before Honda monkeyed with the formula when it relaunched the VFR with VTEC in 2002..
I love the looks of the VFR with its mix of clean lines and angular bits, and the techno dash and ergonomics are spot-on too. And it's got a single-sided swingarm, which always does it for me. The VFR looks like a sports bike, and goes like one of five years ago or so. But there'...

Sports Tourer test: Tiger 1050, VFR800, GSX-R1000 K7 and Fazer FZ1
By Jon Urry on 04/03/2010 11:18:20
Just what is a sports-tourer these days? Used to be a middle-for-diddle model with zero sex appeal, but these days it could be anything from a superbike with luggage to a purpose-built mile-muncher...
-thin powerband. And now, in 2008, things have reached a head. After a discussion in the office none of us could agree on what a Sports-tourer was, so we gathered together four that represent the new breed.Starting off with the benchmark, Honda’s VFR800

Insurance Refugees: TLR, VFR800, ZX-12R & ZX-10R
By Jon Urry on 21/10/2008 15:22:43
Some secondhand bikes have slipped through the insurance net and can be bought and insured for less than half the price of a new supersport machine. We grabbed a 22 year-old student and found the most ridiculous insurance deals on these four
Insurance has always been a dirty word in motorcycling. Spiralling annual premiums and the crippling cost of having your bike covered puts many riders off owning a high-performance machine altogether, so much so that many manufacturers are being forced to offer subsidised insuran...

What is a sports tourer - Triumph Tiger, FZ1 Fazer, VFR800 and GSX-R1000 road test
By Jon Urry on 21/05/2010 11:06:16
Just what is a sports-tourer these days? Used to be a middle-for-diddle model with zero sex appeal, but these days it could be anything from a superbike with luggage to a purpose-built mile-muncher
with the benchmark, Honda’s VFR800. The original Sports-tourer refined over two decades. Then we have the new breed, Triumph’s Tiger 1050 was a big Trailie, then they lost the knobblie tyres and gave it panniers. Next is Yamaha’s FZ1 Fazer. Comfy riding position

Spotted by Visordown reader Harriet Pottinger, you've never seen anything like it
group of Spanish bikers, our super hero was the only one with an Austrian registered bike and as he was riding a Honda VFR800; the only one not on a BMW. Perhaps he's from the Austrian VFR Rebel Alliance on a covert mission to convert Spanish bikers
