I would suggest everyone pick up a copy of the upcoming September 2010 issue of RoadBike Magazine. In addition to having two awesome articles about the VFR1200F (Raising the Bar - Honda Redefines Sport-Touring), there is also a full article about VFRworld on page 28! There is even a shot out to Reggie's Roadhouse Roundup.
The September issue goes on sale July 27th, and for those of you loyal VFRworld fans, it's sure to be a collector's item. First Reg's exclusive invitation from Honda, and now this - we are becoming (in)famous!

A regular guy's take on this new bike...
The new VFR1200 is a bike like any other bike…or is it? The forums around here (and elsewhere on the net) have been abuzz for quite some time now about this new bike from Big Red. Is it a SPORT-tourer, is it a sport-TOURER, is it something else? What’s it aimed at? Who is the projected market? What’s with the gas tank? What the hell is DCT?

Well, yours truly, one Reg71, was invited to a “press” type event to see if I can get some answers to these questions. Apparently the word is out, and I am quite famous. I won’t even get into the amount of time I spent signing autographs.
American Honda Motor Company's Powersports Division announced today the release of the much-anticipated 2010 VFR1200F.
"This is one of the most exciting motorcycles in Honda's history," said Powersports Press Manager Bill Savino. "The VFR1200F establishes a whole new definition of performance motorcycling, one that taps into Honda's rich V-4 VFR heritage and extends it into the future of Honda motorcycling. The new technology within this motorcycle is flat-out amazing and it all works together in a manner that takes the VFR1200F strides forward in how a high-end machine looks, works and feels. This is a sport motorcycle that will leave you smiling and ready for more even after you've been riding for hours on end."
The 2010 VFR1200F embodies the next generation of new motorcycle technology, resulting in unsurpassed rider benefits for those in search of a sporting motorcycle that truly transcends common bounds. Honda's V-4 heritage has been re-invented in astonishingly innovative form through the fusion of advanced technology to craft a futuristic sport motorcycle created for the sheer joy of riding, custom tailored for experienced hands who ride hard, ride long, ride far and ride often.
Just a few of the incredible features and benefits found in the VFR1200F include Honda MotoGP engine technology and architecture; a light and compact 1237cc liquid-cooled 76-degree V-4 that pumps out amazing levels of power; Throttle By Wire for next-generation throttle response; lightweight and compact Unicam valvetrain allows for significantly smaller cylinder heads; optional Dual Clutch Automatic Transmission with manual mode and automatic mode with two D/S modes and paddle-style shifters; Honda slipper clutch in the manual-shift VFR1200F; GP technology layer-concept aero fairing for unrivaled air management and futuristic style; next-generation shaft drive system with offset pivot point and sliding constant-velocity joint for a new level of shaft-drive performance and control.
The VFR1200F will be available at Honda dealers in Spring of 2010.

Had just about enough of Honda
I have two Interceptors - an '83 VF750F and an '07 VFR800. I have ridden 8,000 miles in a little over three months. Bikes are what I do and Interceptors are my ride of choice. However, Honda is a complete
