Great video! I'm picking up a vfr tomorrow, can't wait!
This was my first bike!!!! 90’ VFR 750 single sided swingarm🔥🔥🔥🔥
so pleased to hear that what an amazing bike to have as a first bike it most likely is a very special memory
i really like the rider+bike format. would like to see more. Especially as you never find reviews of older bikes which is exactly what most people on a budget are looking at. To me thats a large part of what makes your channel awesome, your not scared of the old and beautiful
Exactly thats why i love making These. Ofcourse i love new bikes aswell and they bring more Clicks but no one will See a Video on a bike like that and then get the Idea to buy one. But with this that actually is a posible Option
Great video and format, I'm just discovering your channel. I've had my 1990 VFR 750 for years, and I wouldn't sell it for anything. It's an extraordinary machine, still so modern.....and completely underrated in Switzerland where you can find them for barely 1000 Euros....
Thank you for the kind words and yes it’s an amazing bike. There is lots of stuff to be discovered here ☺️
Nice and honest review of this Japanese gem. What you guys missed though, was to mention that the engine of this bike doesn’t consume oil between services. Consumption ranges from moderate, i.e. 4,5l/100kms (in case I ride it) to hilarious 7 +l/100 kms (in case Sher rides it😂).
Cheers and safe ride!
How often do I have to keep telling you that it’s Ok and recommendable to go above 2000rpm ?
I've had this VFR750 since 2002. And the oil is ALWAYS golden even after a couple of year 10,000 miles plus, never carbons up !
Very good review👍.Bought myself a 1990 model rc 36/1 in pearly white for only 800€.What a gem,typical honda perfection.
For 800 bucks that is an absolute steal how amazing
I got one in Januar 2024, i love her like a long forgottan friend.
The beauty of motorcycling is that there is such a HUGE choice of older (very much older) ballistic continent crushing machinery still available for extremely modest cost.
Had me looking up VFRs on bikesales here in Australia.
They're quite cheap to buy.
That sounds amazing, hope I can tour Australia on my motorcycle one day ☺️
I still have mine after 30 years - 115,000 kms, still going strong. Also NOT for sale!
Get one. You won't regret it.
This saturday im looking at a vfr750 but it is like a 200km drive im glad you did the lenght test because im 6’5 and didnt know if it would fit me and drive 200km for nothing! Thanks for this video
Let me know if you bought one, it’s a lovely bike ☺️
I'm 50 and last year i rode my 89 vfr750fk from Norway to the Isle of Man and back trouble free. Almost crashed in Belgium 😮. The bike is heavy and has a special smoothness and quality feel that ways up for the not top notch touring riding position. The engine did not use a drop of oil after 85000km. Now an old bike like this needs to be looked after! Don't be naive❤
I am in the UK 🇬🇧 and want to ride my vfr750 to Norway this summer
@@raptorpome2577 You go and have a great time, hope you find dry weather 👍👍
You should try the 6th gen VFR 800
Maybe at some point I get the chance
The fifth are the best vfr !😊
Moin, fahre seit Jahren eine '91 VFR. Vor zwei Jahren ist der Tacho das erste Mal rum und der Motor läuft wie am ersten Tag. Als ich auf deinen Kanal gestoßen bin war mein erster Gedanke dass ne VFR das richtige Bike für deine On-a-Budget Abenteuer ist. Absolut Zuverlässig, Wartungsarm, kostentechnischer Underdog und easy zu fahren. Ein absoluter Charakter, der überall gerne begrüßt wird. Meine hat mich bis Corsica und Norwegen gebracht. Nächste Idee ist die Atlantikstrasse. Wär bestimmt auch ein geiles Video ;-) Felix
Mit meiner 93' komm ich immer in interessante Gespräche. Jeder ist erstaunt über das Alter, Laufleistung & Optik der Guten. Einziges Problem war Lichtmaschine und Laderegler. Viel Spaß mit dem Gentlemansportler 😊
Ich mag das Format, gerne mehr davon!
Aktuelle Motorräder mit TFT-Screen-Tacho, Tempomat und 7 Fahrmodi sind leider genau das Gegenteil von dem, was ich an Motorrädern mag...simplicity...
Wenn du Doppelscheinwerfer, 90er Feeling und eine tolle Drehmoment-Kurve magst, wäre vielleicht eine 955er Speed Triple (99 - 01) was.
Unfassbar viel Motorrad für das Geld! :)
Ja genau deswegen mache ich auch die Serie weil es sind einfach Motorräder die den Leuten näher sind auch weil es find ich unrealistisch ist an die 10000 tausend Euro für eine neue coole Maschine auszugeben. Ist zwar schön sich das anzuschauen und werd sowas auch immer wieder vorstellen will aber auch das es tatsächlich nahbare Motorräder zu den Leuten schon ne Verbindung haben sind
Gosh, I want one of them now😅👍🏻
I can understand that they are pretty cool
In the mid 1980s I had a Honda V4 Sabre V45. It was 698cc to evade the 700cc import motorcycle tariff that Harley Davidson encouraged Congress to pass. My Sabre had the Hondaline full fairing and detachable suitcase saddle bags so it was set up for sport touring. I would routinely cruise at 115 mph comfortably.
They are a fantastic bike’ I’ve owned over 1 year now. Only 2 complaints…. They are uncomfortable to ride when it’s hot weather and they are not the most economical but that glorious V4 makes up for it 😊
I thought about mentioning the Economics of the bike but for a almost 30 year old bike it’s Average
Yes! It is a really hot bike in summer conditions. But you never had to install a seatheating even in fall. Hot engine!😂
@@andih.5818 Agreed, they are great in the autumn and winter
Honda is the king of V4 motorcycles. I did a test ride on a VF400f owned by my nephew and a VFR800i. I want to try a Pan European which is also a V4 and has a very good reputation.
Vfr rc36 is the best bike ever!
Actualy in Germany nobody want IT!
A very good rc36 with low miles cost just 1200€!!
Thanks for the Video!
Uff that’s tempting don’t make me buy another bike 😂😂
I had a VFR just like that one back in the 90's and loved it. It was sporty AND all-day comfortable. It got totaled when it went into a tankslapper after wheelying over a rise in the road at near WOT in 6th gear and pitched me off. I still have an unstable left knee from that one.
Sport touring comfortable bike Nice sound🔥✊
Cool! I just bought a gen 6 from 2007 this thursday. Havnt had a chance to ride it yet as i got my bro to pick it up, just sat on one before and rode a 7th gen for a test ride years ago 😆
All of the vfrs look great except for maybe the 1200 in my opinion 😅
Congratulations on the amazing new bike ☺️
It's a great bike, but no longer cam driven.
That was probably the best sport bike engine for the road ever. They ruined the linearity of the engine output with the Vtec crap.
The vtec thing must be a handful especially when leaned over
The vfr750 has a 180 degree crank for better v4 sound unlike the vf750 and the vfr800 and also RC30 (vfr750r) which have the 360 degree "big bang" crank for better top end power distribution.
@@EuronasaVfr800 has 180 crank.
@@gogocro1 my mistake...
The fifth generation,VFR800 1998-2002 pre vtec are awesome! Arguably THE BEST EVER.Cheers
Wonder why you`re worrried about speed cameras facing the front of your bike😅 great bike, great video. Cheers
Some of the newer once also flash from behind and also if you get many ones from the front you have a higher risk of them linking multiple speed camera pics from the front to you when you get flashed from behind. As they still know your clothes height other physical features and make model and color of your bike.
Also in some towns some motorcycles are not super common so if you overdue it they will figure out who you are.
I was looking for one about a year and a half ago, opted for a ducati st2 instead because of the vfr high fuel consumption. In retrospect, both bikes are probably unsuited for my needs as I do quite a lot of city riding and now I'm looking for something else. I admit this bike is better in the looks department than my st2 though.
Both amazing bikes maybe somthing less powerful and lighter for the city could be nice
My VFR 93' can be drivin with 5l fuel per 100km. What's the problem?
Nice bike. Want to get a vfr 800. But they can be quite pricey. They really hold their value 2nd hand.
The vfr 800 is also very cool but the break system is supposed to be quite different
V4 in a bike is the V8 at cars. Me riding 1200 V4 since 1995 and since 2017 I ride a 1700 V4.
V-Max is super-cool!!!
@@user-up3kj1yg2c for those who understand the bike for what it is, the VMax is indeed one of the best bikes ever. At least on public roads, at speeds and ride styles that don't exceed the legal limit too far. And if you stay in "civilized" regions. On racetracks, off road and far from gas stations hey are useless. I couldn't afford a Münch Mammut, so I stuck on it's closest modern spirit.
this is my bike as well. I can confirm that this thing just makes 65 feel like 45.
A friend has one of these, having ridden the VFR I came to these conclusions.....felt gutless...it wasn't....but it didn't "feel" like it was pulling strong ( even tho it was) I wasn't too happy with the different coloured clocks.
The side fairing had false black "air vents" to ape the NR750.....again, pointless...... but the bike ride ok......smooth engine, as ever from Honda.
Probably the feeling you are discribing comes from the bike not giving the Tipical sportbike clues like other bikes that can make it very deciving
Those air vents are real and doing their job thought.. Air exit through the vents under the seat, so they help pull heat from within the fairings.
I have a 94 VFR750 and with a bit of aftermarket in it 220kph is surprisingly and a bit worryingly easy
Lol the owner of the bike has a strong German accent.
I'll stick with my VFR800 FI For ever! Stepping down from my 1991 GSXR1100! what a Cadillac!
I had the same on a honda GL1100.
Had to look 2 times on the speedo on highways to not break the law becouse it was so convertible
Also this has the wrong handlebars these are super raised. The original bars are lower. But great vid man.
When you think that a good, used example will cost approx £1500 they are an absolute bargain imho. Built during a time when Honda made bikes to a standard, and not to a price...
hello mate
i have two bikes you could try if you want.
1. aprilia caponord rally 1200 2016 (gigantic barge of a touring machine)
2 aprilia tuono Gen 1 2005 the first factory naked bike made from a supersport. this is in my opinion the most mental bike there is, to much power and no abs or traction control.
i live in the netherlands about an hour from the german border, i dont mind touring towards you :).
That Sounds amazing i would love to Review those bikes especially the tuono sutch a Special and interesting bike.
I don’t mind coming to the Netherlands especially because I at some point this month need to go to Amsterdam for work anyway.

Hello can you give us more details of the handlebar conversion please? Did you purchase it as a kit? Did you need to change the brake hoses?
A lot of handlebar conversions for the VFR750 require the top fairing to he cut otherwise the fairing gets fouled by the switches.. Did you have to do this?
you should try a suzuki bandit 1200
Its not a sport tourer. Its an animal! As an owner of a gsxr1000 k4 this gets me into more trouble. Its a torque monster. Like a 2 stroke sports bike to me.
Really Like your work. As Im a „victim“ of the Marketing about new/big bikes and gear. 😄Startet with a 2004 Suzuki SV1000s. Great to see your content and most Important your Passion about bike travels and non fancy motorcycles.
4th Gen VFR is The Best VFR. ❤🔥 …. even with those weird aftermarket bars.
I definitely am a fan now too ☺️
agree lighter then 5th gen
Owned (for a short while) a vf 1000f . Predecessor of the rest of twin fours. A beast of a bike if it was running right. But there were to much probs whit those bikes. Carburator and leaking headgascets just to name the biggest. Taking half a bike apart to get to the heads is the same shit as is still happening with newer or new bikes. A bike needs to be simply build and easy to work on. Not being build shit compact like a damn car. I endend up selling my bike for peanuts because i hated it. Never ever a twin four again. Having said that. I am a old bloke. I grew up in the 70,s and early 80,s. When bikes looked like bikes and not like fucking robot transformers. Made from steel, not plastic. Easy to work on. A bitch to ride sometimes. But you worked with the bike , you felt something that is not there anymore with new bikes.
Abs, a computer telling you when you can start your bike, computer telling you this or that is not working correct. You got 20 km till the motor is shut down for safety reasons. Oh, the horror, a led lamp failed. I cant ride whitout a computer who tells me what to , the computer has a glitch for a sec. Cant start your bike cause the computer cant find the nearest gas station where you can take a shit whitout paying 5 euros for it.
Radar cruise controle ? Sure. Look at cows in a field instead of a upcoming bent in the road.
Bikes from 2005 onward are lazy mans bikes. The have become cars on two wheels. Riders today relay to much on electronics. (Forced upon by goverments who are complete morons) the generation growing up with this shit computer bikes wil if the are intrestid in real bikes regret the day they bought there latest new computer transformer bike. I hate everything that has more than simple carburator. Having said that, i do like the kawa 800 w. I know it has ( fake feul injection)
But thats the only bike i would consider owning. It is very easy to work on. But than again i like strolling alonge with 90 to 110 km a hour.
Sofar for the ramblings of a old grumpy bloke. What ever you ride, enjoy racking up the miles and stay safe
Carburated bikes are always a Bit of a handful

Where i can find my vrf like that gel seat?
Этот байк надежней дукати на порядок
The autobahn is one of the best things about Germany....
Well kind of for making these videos yes when you just want to get from a to be the no speed limit thing can be anoying.
@@FreeMilesMC sadly loads of parts of the autobahn are restricted now so i can't just hop the dutch border to try my top speed legally
@@FreeMilesMC What do you mean? Is it not the case that fast drivers can use the lane on the left and the ones who want to cruise can just stick t the right?
You modern kids... with your new fangled Bluetooth saetnavs..I have 1990 😅
