Honda vfr800x

[Lakeland]

Has anyone test rode the 2015 model?

There are a few reviews kicking about, some good, some average. Some say it's a bit underpowered but it is always hard to judge comments on power made by other people because it's relative to what you're used to riding.

I ride my dad's vfr750 and find the power on that to be fairly decent, it can sometimes feel like it's bogging a bit, but I think that's probably down to needing the plugs changed and perhaps the carbs fettled. I think I'll book a test ride and see if I get on with it. I quite like the look of the tiger xrx and xcx too though, possibly a good shout as I'm not convinced that honda are as good as they used to be in terms of quality.
