Honda Goes Retro

[Hillbilly]

For 2007 Honda will be giving it's US version of the VFR800 the old "Interceptor" name and colours as seen below.

Tis nice to see one manufacturer avoiding the current ugly bike phase motorcycle manufacturers seem to be going through.:Pokey:

I was never a fan of the 800's looks but that's damn sexy.

[Mental Trousers]

Damn, I like that.

Red, white, and blue sells in the USA, but I could live with that.

There is also the added bonus in that next year it'll be the same layout and size as the factory Moto GP bikes...

Your alright about the ugly bike phase bonez specially the new ninja, but this looks niiiice.

[MattRSK]

I love it!

[scracha]

Got a semi just looking at it. Why couldn't it just be plain white tho like a proper viffer?

[R6_kid]

now thats pretty cool. Would be good if the ZX-R range from kwaka came out with the retro ZXR graphics just for a laugh.

[Hillbilly]

What about the old GPz900R paint job and graphics?

The "Interceptor" name tag aint new, the VFR's have always been tagged this in the States. Heres the '06 version for sale http://powersports.honda.com/motorcycles/sport/model.asp?ModelName=Interceptor&ModelYear=2006&ModelId=VFR8006

Wonder what happened to the rumoured 1200cc V5 version?

all the VFR reviews I've read say "great bike, but the VTEC thing where you get a powerband sucks"

the paintscheme rules though. I have a VF750 1983 taking up space in my garage if anyone wants it for cheap..... obviously now its collectable its less cheap.
