i have a 1997 with over 245,000kms on the clock. Replaced the RR rectifier twice and still pulls very strong. I hope Honda bring it back as discontinuing it was a crime of humanity. Nothing compares to a V engine.
I'm riding a 94 so same Gen. It's done over 230,000k with minimal things breaking, in fact only one, the the starter clutch a few years ago. Dont wish to ride other bikes really, It's them gear driven cams and pure mechanicality with no rider aids. Valves were last checked around 95/6 along with an upgraded rectifier and that's about it. The original head bearings will be changed next week.
Got mine at the start of the summer, 80k on it. was FULL of problems. Insane. But its all due to severe neglect. The 700euro bike is about 4,5k now, but it has a rebuild engine (bearings, rings, pistons, oversized), oem+ rebuild forks, hyperpro shock, 525 chain kit, dynojet kitted the carbs and finetuned it on the dyno (110hp at the wheel!), BMC filter, TYGA performams HRC style headers with kevlar exhaust, new tyres, throttle cables, rebuild brakes and SS lines, full EBC clutch kit, new stearing stem bearings, wheel bearings front and back, iridium plugs amd brand new OEM coils amd spark plug caps, new coolant lines, amd some more small stuff. Next is brake disks amd pads when the disks are officially under spec (0,15mm left) and then i'll repair the fairings and powdercoat the forkstems and subframe, amd replace the swingarm and pro-arm bearings. In the far future, it might get to be a rc30 replica. In short.... i love the bike so much that i'm willing to spend this kind of money on it.
We should definitely meet up! I love working on older bikes, though I’m not the greatest mechanic myself. Would be awesome to collaborate and learn a few things. Where are you located?
@@edsmotomindset i'm near alkmaar myself! Working with you some time would be nice! Would be next summer though due to time and weather contraints. Doing a bachelour outside of working hours right now. But some day would be awesome!
I've just got rid of my r1 after 17 years and bought a 4th gen 96 vr after missing all the best rides I had back in the 90s. I crashed 2 vfr750s back in the day because I was too confident with them lol. When I was a kid my dream bikes were the rc30 and rc45 so this is the best compromise for an ageing biker like me. Great video 👍
I hope to not crash one of my bikes, but I drive pretty offensively. Good luck on your 750! I test drove a r1, but it was to heavy on the arms for comfortable driving for me 👌🏻
@@GreggBennett-j3p the engine or the ride position more sporty? I agree on the engine, but the riding position is more sporty on this generation if you ask me ❤️
@@edsmotomindset yes. You jogged my feeble memory from nearly 30 yrs ago. Now that you mention it, I do recall the bars being a bit higher on the vfr800. But the engine was noticeably stronger, and the suspension spring and dampening rates were significantly firmer and more controlled. The soft suspension on the 95 was my biggest gripe with the bike and the main reason I immediately traded it in after 1 test ride on the vfr800. Finally, the linked brakes on the vfr800 were nothing short of phenomenal. The only downside was the somewhat more complicated plumbing involved. At the time I owned many bikes that have become so called ‘modern classics’: ‘93 Ducati 888, ‘91 Ducati 900ss, ‘99 Ducati ST2, ‘95 Moto Guzzi 1100 Soprt, and a ‘90 Moto Guzzi Lemans 1000. Those bikes all lived in my garage in the early 00’s. But then, After a lifetime of riding/racing motorcycles, I sold every one of them (except the Lemans) in ‘08. After retiring last year (I’m in my mid 60’s), I decided to put the old Moto guzzi back on the road. It was fun, but not the same. Cest la vie, I suppose. Enjoy your vfr 750, and be careful about selling it. I suspect those VFR’s will become highly sought after in the coming years. Take care and ride safe.
I think the 90s was a golden decade for the motorcycle industry. What is there today from Honda that is comparable to what was produced between 1985 and 1997? Last week I bought a VFR of 1993, 62.000 km for ridiculous 900 euros. Mega cool.
Congratulations for the machine.! I agree with you 100%. My favourite version is the RC36 I, with the green and silver colours, with the green tinted wind screen :)
I had a '94 model just like it and loved it. It went into a tank slapper at near WOT in 6th gear while wheelying over a rise in the road and pitched me off, sending the bike sliding into a telephone pole and totaling it. I tore a few ligaments and my left knee is still a bit unstable, but I was dressed for the crash and pulled through much better than one would expect. The '98 VFR800 I replaced it with was also really sweet.
@@edsmotomindset I was more comfortable on the 750, but the fuel injection on the 800 was worth a little discomfort. It was a little faster too. I got miffed and moved away from VFRs after 2001 or 2 when they dropped the gear driven cams in favor of V-Tech valve trains, which I found to be a bit unsettling when it kicked in while leaned over in turns. Thanks for the video. 👍
I HAVE THE BEST EXAMPLE OF A 1997 RED VFR 750 IN THE WORLD! 😎 A bold statement you say! Truth is thats exactly how I feel even before I ride it, yes, its unconditional love as soon as I see it just waiting quietly oozing charisma. However it is a good clean example & runs sweet. Its my second Viff so I know their pros & cons. They are not for everyone & that goes for all bikes but when you get a taste of these machines they do leave an impression. Great vids Ed! 👍
I keep my 5th gen VFR800 (many similarities to your 750) running nicely until today. As age comes upon my body, I wish it could be lighter and lower but it still warms my heart when I ride it. 😅👴. Note: I had to replace the rectifier years ago but that was the only "problem" I've had with this bike.
VFR 750 is quite a special apparatus. It is reliable, mainly comfortable, nice sound and the design, while definitely aged, still good looking. Maybe it is a bit heavy, but it was never ment to be ridden off road.
I own a 95 and love it. My dad has a 91, a 98, and two 04 bikes so clearly we like them. Just unbelievably high quality…. My fairings are getting old, but mechanically my bike still runs like a top.
I'm getting a 1996 Honda VFR750 in trade for some patio remodeling work. This will be my first "real" motorcycle, as I've been riding a 50cc Yamaha Zuma scooter for the past 2 years. I hope this isn't too much bike and a good bike to learn on.
Honda VFR must be the one of the best motorcycles ever built I had the pleasure to own three Honda VFRs 2003 VFR VTEC 2000 VFR gear driven and now I own VFR 750FN generation 3 produced from 1990 to 1993 I must admit this is the one best which I had so far. When Honda was making these used to time back in time they had the department which was allowed to do whatever they wanted no cost spare Honda was experimental something which today is motorcycles manufacturers lost the touch with. I had 13 motorcycles since 2010 different types including 3 VFR. Honda is my favourite motorcycle company and Honda VFRs are the best in my opinion.
Also Honda was little cheeky when they were limited to 4 cylinder when they were taking part in racing. So they bore 4 cylinders more and sticked oval pistons. NR750 was born. Welcome little V8. That's a Honda
yes they were handed a blank cheque to make it reliable after they cocked up with the first v4, so yea avoid the sabre and its brothers with same engine or get the special tools and i suppose there must have been a recall for the oil lines as long as you know what you are buying, you could set the valve timing rotate the motor measure again and it was different, honda actually had to make a special tool to keep the cam in position to adjust the valves everyone thought they were bad luck until a magazine published its long term test review , and then the stories started rolling in some say the reliability of hondas has their origins in building an unreliable first itteration of a v4, then engineers was told make it reliable at any cost to save face , or heads would roll and there we go v4 vfr as we know them
I own a VFR800Fi and I love almost everything about it. Only looks are a bit 'mhoa' in my opinion. It doesnt have the beauty of a Ducati for example. But with a Gen 3 rear wheel, dark double bubble screen, Sargent seat, high mount exhaust, no rear footpegs and some other small changes looks are much improved in my opinion. For all the rest, amazing bike
Got the 750 FV in the best colour, BLUE. RR replaced 10 yrs ago but relocated onto a heat sink down by radiator to get better airflow. Put the 8 spoke rear wheel on, looks better! 72k miles, runs sweet as, just run in I would say. Have the bigger brother to now, 1200X but not the same without gear driven cams 👌
Thanks for the compliment, trying to learn how to make good videos. Being honest, raw and unedited is the road (fun intended) I picked for now, please let me know if you have any advice or tips! 🙌
Hey there, I've managed to put on mine over 350000km with some minor issues over time as it 1990 3rd gen model I still have it and still running fine for its age...
Lovely video, Lovely bike. I've got the Gen 4 in red too. Mine's got a double bubble screen, it looks great and gives more wind protection - mind you, I don't know how hard they are to fit as mine came with one. Great to see a bit of Holland, such a nice country.
een paar weken geleden heb ik een zeer nette en fantastich onderhouden rc 24 uit '89 gekocht voor een prikkie. ik was op eerste gezicht stapelverliefd! net als de jouwe is het ook rood en ziet er nog geweldig uit. erg jammer dat ik nog geen rijbewijs heb, kan echt niet wachten om te rijden
98hp and 236kg ;-) 105hp was the RC36-1. Last year I had my '94 on a scale and she tipped in at 236kg, admittedly with a full tank of fuel, but without the tool kit and the to two rubber pads in the fairing. I do all my maintenance my self, and that is bit of a of a pain IMHO. The V4 makes it very cramped to get to carbs, I always remove the radiator when checking valve clearances, as there is more space to work on the 2 front cylinder. For me it is part of the charm, so not a big deal really. I've owned mine for 5 years now and do not plan to sell it. Oh BTW it is an "old man's bike" these days. The RC36-2 was brand new when I got my motorcycle license and I've been wanting to own one ever since ;-)
Strangely enough on my ownership-card it states 105hp 😂, I don’t know what the real deal is but it’s a bit on the powerful sides as a beginner bike in my opinion🚀. The V4 makes it a little harder to get to, I totally agree, but I didn’t take repairs into account, I only took the regular maintenance into account, which is reasonable easy to take care of ❤️ lovely to meet so many VFR riders!
@@edsmotomindset hmmm, sound like there is as much confusion in the Netherlands as here in Denmark. I bought a '94 for spares back a few years back on the paper work for that states 74kW(100.5hp). Both of the ones with Danish papers I own, is both rated at 72kW. I've even found some where the Danish paperwork is showing 136kW!!?? this is more or less what the 1200 have??
Hey there i owned a honda vfr 750 rc 24 from 1986 the first gén and i lóvéd nothing come close to the vfr for me its the best bike in the world ever produced 2:47 by honda company its my opinion
That's the beauty of it...54000km is nothing for a vfr..😊 The only thing I don't like are the " rubber condoms" wich cover the mirors so I removed them and sprayed the underlying construction...much better!
Reed je door Wassenaar? Ik had een rode, ingeruild op een XJ900S. En toch maar weer een VFR erbij gekocht, nu een metaal blauwe uit '96. Originele Honda kleur die je zelden ziet. Er is nog een probleemgebiedje: de starterclutch. Nog steeds te koop bij Honda, uurtje werk, wel kostbaar. Een VFR blijft een geweldige machine, als ik echt comfort wil pak ik mijn ST1100...
Ja reed inderdaad door Wassenaar, had dat nog niet gevonden online dat dat vaak stuk gaat, misschien zit er in mijn apparaat geen originele meer? Heb de machine pas anderhalf jaar. Bedankt voor het kijken van de video ❤
Subscribed from Australia! No one has to ever give any reason(s) why they choose to ride any year Honda VFR 750. They are probably one of the most iconic Sports tourers that Honda ever engineered and also one that is so sublime and silky smooth but also has enough grunt to really deliver in the twisties and also at the top end speed when called for. Highly under rated by the sports bike crowd. Highly under rated by the cruiser crowd. Highly appreciated by the people that "get" Honda's design philosophy here. They really are fantastic all rounders and many a time I've met them in Australia on the higher speed rural mountain roads to find a very good rider right up my exhaust on any litre sport bike I was riding at the time. No Harley can do this! Cheers and good luck for the channel. @@edsmotomindset
Hey man! Ik ben een beginnende rijder en op zoek naar een eerste motor. Nu ben ik om de hoek bij mij precies deze fiets tegengekomen, een zwarte. Zou je het aanraden als beginnende rijder? Ik les zelf op een MT-07. Thanks alvast, en informatieve video!
Hey, ik heb een losse video waar je aan moet denken als je deze als eerste fiets wilt rijden, ik zou zeggen, het kan zeker maar er zijn betere/veiligere opties 🔥
Yes the bike is suited for that. I installed the red cover cause I never had a passenger, but it had 2 alloy handles for your passenger and a longer seat👌🏻
Had the 5th gen.Typical issue thin stator wires frying rectifier.....heavier then 4th version and runs hot very hot.Its not a bike you want to get stuck on traffic....Anyway I may look into 4th gen
I bought a vfr750 4 weeks a go with 140.000 but it runs and drives still great.Absolutly no regret of this motorcycle.
Congrats on that amazing machine. I know for sure you won’t regret your choice ❤
I have the same bike. 145,000km so far. Love it. Cheers from Canberra Australia. Nice video
Thanks! Appreciate the feedback, new to creating videos as you can see in my timeline I try to improve every vid! ❤️
i have a 1997 with over 245,000kms on the clock. Replaced the RR rectifier twice and still pulls very strong. I hope Honda bring it back as discontinuing it was a crime of humanity. Nothing compares to a V engine.
Damn 245k that's amazing!!
I'm riding a 94 so same Gen. It's done over 230,000k with minimal things breaking, in fact only one, the the starter clutch a few years ago.

Amazing! I don’t know if the previous owner did it justice, maybe he tanked cheap gasoline, what can really mess up the carburator ?
I just got a 1995 VfR 750 F with 12,000 miles on it mint
What a luck! Hope you have a great time with that amazing machine!
That's a GREAT find! You're going to love it. 👍

Subscribed from Australia! No one has to ever give any reason(s) why they choose to ride any year Honda VFR 750. They are probably one of the most iconic Sports tourers that Honda ever engineered and also one that is so sublime and silky smooth but also has enough grunt to really deliver in the twisties and also at the top end speed when called for. Highly under rated by the sports bike crowd. Highly under rated by the cruiser crowd. Highly appreciated by the people that "get" Honda's design philosophy here. They really are fantastic all rounders and many a time I've met them in Australia on the higher speed rural mountain roads to find a very good rider right up my exhaust on any litre sport bike I was riding at the time. No Harley can do this! Cheers and good luck for the channel. @@edsmotomindset
Hey man! Ik ben een beginnende rijder en op zoek naar een eerste motor. Nu ben ik om de hoek bij mij precies deze fiets tegengekomen, een zwarte. Zou je het aanraden als beginnende rijder? Ik les zelf op een MT-07. Thanks alvast, en informatieve video!
Hey, ik heb een losse video waar je aan moet denken als je deze als eerste fiets wilt rijden, ik zou zeggen, het kan zeker maar er zijn betere/veiligere opties 🔥
Ik woon in Utrecht (provincie) en heb een 2002 VFR 800 V-tec. Welke provincie kom jij vandaan?
Zuid Holland, Den Haag. Mag ik een keer op de GEN6 (denk ik) rijden? Ben erg benieuwd naar de veranderingen aan de motorfiets 👌🏻
Stuur me maar een DM op Instagram (link op channel page )
Is this bike suited to fit a passenger? It looks like there is no seat on the back
Yes the bike is suited for that. I installed the red cover cause I never had a passenger, but it had 2 alloy handles for your passenger and a longer seat👌🏻
Bela moto.
Thx 🔥
In my house lives one😀
