Fast not furious

Hi,

Just thought I would pass on a review of a 2007 VFR from Cycle Canada from Jan '08. I couldn't find any other post with the review. Yes, I did search.


2007 Honda VFR800FIA - Fast, not Furious - Motorcycle


I can't disagree with the review.

Good boy for using the search feature! You get a

I agree with that review too. I wanted a bike that I can ride accross states without needing a chiropractor. With those CBRs forget about it!

Thanks! The only review I ever saw on the '07 was that short little piece in Motorcyclist for the "25th Anniversary" write-up.

That is an excellent review - and nearly a perfect description of the reasons why I bought my 2004 VFR.

They did a great job on that review and you gotta love the From the saddle comments. Very thorough job making for some great moto-journalism! Thanks for the link.

Not a bad write up though not so sure about his " High Centre of Gravity " comment.

Honda advertise the V4 engine puts the weight low and forward giving a Low Centre of gravity which is why the VFR Rolls progressivly rather than drops rapidly into corners like the GPZ900R frightened me with when I first rode one in '84.
