Honda VFR800 resurrection

Today we had the opportunity to restore this Sports Touring icon to more than it's former glory. The bike was sat for an extremely long period without being used. and the inside of the fuel tank was quite scary, so the bike received the full treatment.
It got totally new suspensions and a full combined brake hose kit, with all the brakes fully overhauled. some other minor trick bits at the customer's request and some artistic license afforded to us.
The end result was a remarkable motorbike, absolutely beautiful to ride. Hope you enjoy.

VFR800 5th generation one of the best motorcycles ever made, V4 gear driven cams wrapped in a racing chassis and set up as a sport tourer, can't wait to be riding it again

The 5th gen VFR has always been a bucket list bike for me, but for some reason I always end up with something else for the sake of convenience or what's available at the time. With a throaty pipe this is hands down one of the best sounding bikes out there- the gear driven cams just do it for me.
Thank you for sharing this with us- a machine like this often transcends the sum of it's parts.

You really feel like Batman when you're riding one.

I think I know the owner of this VFR and I will be looking forward to be riding with him when he gets it all set up to ride it more. Also I have been looking for a mechanic who can do some work on my 1995 GL1500 Goldwing as I ride it every day of the week as I don't have anything else to ride/drive to me to and from work 5 days a week
