What kind of seat does the Honda VFR 800 have?
Corbin’s Gunfighter & Lady seat for the VFR 800 is an exercise in design versatility. This model works with your Honda seat cowling, with the passenger handrails &/or with our removable backrest for added passenger comfort. We’ve engineered our backrest to install into hardware concealed in the saddle for a very clean look.
What kind of suspension does a Honda VFR have?
Adjustable 43mm (1.7in) front forks and the single-sided monoshock rear suspension give superbly damped handling, and while the VFR is heavier than many sportsbikes, it disguises the extra mass well once on the move. The broad dual seat is comfortable for many miles, even with a pillion, and the angular bodywork keeps the worst of the weather off.
How big is the fuel tank on a Honda VFR?
A generous 22-litre (4.8 gal) fuel tank, together with the efficient VTEC engine allows an impressive 322km (200 mile) range between refills. Optional accessories like hard luggage, heated grips and taller screens further enhance the VFR’s touring ability.

The all-new 2002 VFR800 may be a sport tourer but it features technology that the competitors’ superbikes will envy.

When did Honda change the VTEC on the VFR800?
After much criticism of the abruptness of power transition, Honda lowered the VTEC activation rpm threshold to 6,400 rpm in 2006. The VTEC disengages two cylinder valves when the engine speed drops again below 6,100 rpm. A facelifted VFR800 debuted at the 2013 EICMA show in Milan, Italy.
What are the features of the new Honda VFR?
The new VFR also features traction control, a new instrument panel, and revised aerodynamic bodywork with LED lighting, though the engine and chassis remain largely unchanged from the previous sixth-generation model. Continued from the sixth-generation model is also the 2006 refined version of the VTEC system.
What’s the difference between the VFR and VFR800?
Unlike its VFR predecessors, all VFR800 models use fuel injection instead of carburetors for fuel-air mixing. In 2000, Honda updated the fifth generation VFR with a catalytic converter, oxygen sensors and an EFI system that would enter closed-loop mode under highway (cruising) operation.
