New VFR1200F

Anyone else interested in the new line up of VFR's?

Im interested to see what this new double clutch system is like and what this strange gearbox combination has to offer.

Looks wise im not overly keen on it but then all new bikes appear to be going in the same direction

Vould be intresting to see what a now version of the VFR450 Would be like. and of the VFR750 in the sports range.

The images I have found look much the same.

3 models will be

VFR1200F Sports tourer
VFR1200T New pan Euro
VFR1200X Adventure bike

I agree, bikes have had the same fundamentals for years so why start screwing about with it.

Interested in the engine. Not interested in the bike or ridiculous gearbox.

Typical Honda - will be incredibly competent and powerful with not an ounce of charachter

I cant comment on Riding bikes as you all know havent done my test yet, But a lot of reviews I have read and people I have spoken to say, Honda is not the best bike for experienced riders, they cussion you to much and are too softly with the control. If that makes sence

Well it has been officialy released today and here is how it looks.

Not sure if image is alowed due to writting accross the middle if not i will get another

Next time you are up Scotland and on the East coast give me a shout, Will (if the bikes on the road) come out and show you some good roads, or come out for a blether and a coffee.

I love the look of the CB1000r one sitting outside the work now, its a kinda Goldy Green colour. I have always bee a supersports person, but realisticly now Im looking more towards things like Speed Triple and CB1000R design, Not so over the tank and a bit more upright but still has a fair old grunt to it.

I like it, looks futuristic.

Thats what im not keen on looks too concept for me

Atleast they have moved the fitments of the front mud gaurd, My 86 VFR the nuts are attached to the plastic with rivets one poped off, trying to get it to hold whilst it did up the bolt was a nitemare, after it all I had to use araldite to glue it on then screw it.
