New VFR owner

VFR Limited · 12-16-2007, 06:50 PM

G'day all,

I am a new VFR owner in Australia. I have a Limited Edition VRF800. Brand new.

Does anyone know much about these bikes?

I was told there was only 200 made. Is this correct? Are they only in Australia?

I will post photos at a later date (when i work out how to do it).

Thanks for looking !!

i think you'll find that nobody on this site knows anything about VFRs

Are you referring to the RWB?

Thanks.

By the looks of it Australia is different. Ours don't have ABS. I asked for it but couldn't get it.

You have an '08 Ltd Edition?

VFR Limited · 12-16-2007, 10:05 PM

Yes. It was built Aug 07 but is an 08 model.
In Australia we only have 06 models then 08's.

I was told there is only 200 in Australia but wanted to know if any one else has been told differently, or knows for sure.

Ah yeah, I think I sorta understand now. Good luck with your new machine, I'm sure you will get nothing but positive comments. They are pretty stunning.

Someone on the OZVFR forum has a RWB, I think he said something about a limited number being brought into Australia.

I know my local dealer had one.

Could I restart thread again?
I checked the Honda Australia site. It souds like the limited edition for VFR's 20th
anniversary in Australia. I am not sure, but I thought no tricoloured were sold in EC.
I wonder Honda is waiting for an even number year for European market.
Australian VFR comes with a carbon look metre panel and top bridge. They are
warantied for two years.
