    I was recently involved in a road rage incident (I was the victim) which claimed to life of my beloved '87 VFR700F2. I now have the insurance money(I actually made money on the deal) and I'm looking at either a '92 VFR 750 with 30K miles and in great shape for 2,200 OBO or a '96 VFR 750 also in great shape, but with 54K on the dial for 2,700 OBO. Any major issues I should look for in either, other than the typical R/R issues? Thanks for your input. Later. :thumbsup:

    In Christ,

    Joel C.

    just because of the miles 92, how tall are you? if over 6' the 96 is a little more roomy.

    Year and Mileage

    There are other more important factors, to me. But if everything else is equal, I'd go with the lower miles. '96 has the bitchin' looks, but that is not your question. If you owned an '80's cycle then you know the parts situation. They are both prime examples of Honda reliability, both from the middle of a long run of a successful model.
