Introducing the 2007 Honda VFR800 Interceptor
Feast your eyes on the 2007 Honda VFR800 Interceptor, a true gem celebrating the 25th anniversary of this remarkable series. This beauty, picked up by its current owner in 2020, flaunts a striking Pearl Fadeless White and Pearl Spencer Blue finish, complete with daring red stripes. Underneath, you’ll find a formidable liquid-cooled 781cc DOHC V4 engine linked to a six-speed transmission. It’s the kind of machine that doesn’t just go; it owns the road.
The Look and Feel
This special edition motorcycle is more than just a powerful engine on two wheels. It boasts top-of-the-line features, from programmed fuel injection to dual under-tail mufflers. This elegant beast also sports a sophisticated HMAS cartridge fork, a Pro Arm single-sided swingarm, and linked triple disc brakes. Imagine gliding along the highway on its 17″ alloy wheels, with the windscreen slicing through the breeze and clip-on handlebars ready for action.
In the world of motorcycles, the Honda VFR800 isn’t just a commuter’s dream—it’s a statement of style and performance.
Visually Stunning
- 25th Anniversary livery with commemorative graphics.
- A fuel tank that holds a whopping 5.8 gallons.
- Two-up seating, with a removable rear cowl, offers versatility and comfort.
Of course, not everything is perfect. The current owner points out a few spots—a small blemish on the underside of the fuel tank and some scratches near the front right turn signal and on the left tail section—battle scars, if you will, from living on the edge.
The Tech Specs
Let’s dive a little deeper into what makes this beauty tick. Its heart is a liquid-cooled 781cc DOHC V4 with a robust 110 horsepower and 61 lb-ft of torque. VTEC variable valve timing, programmed fuel injection, and digital ignition make sure it purrs like a well-fed lion. And the pièce de résistance? A four-into-one-into-two exhaust system, with dual-outlet mufflers snugly tucked under the tail section.
Precision Engineering
- Gold-powdercoated 17″ alloy wheels wrapped in Pirelli Angel GT II tires. These were added in 2020, right alongside the new fork seals.
- Adjustable suspension offered through a 43mm HMAS fork and Pro-Link monoshock for that tailored ride experience.
- Linked braking with Nissin three-piston calipers ensures you stop as impressively as you go.
The Rider Experience
Motorcycling is more than just a mode of transport; it’s a visceral experience. On this Interceptor, you’ll find clip-on handlebars elegantly perched above the upper triple clamp. Its sleek instrumentation includes an 11,800-rpm redline tachometer flanked by ever-reliable LCD screens.
Besides a Nissan Leaf on a suburban stretch or a BMW 5 Series relishing the autobahn, there’s little that compares to the thrill of the road beneath two wheels.
The digital odometer reads 4,200 miles—3,300 of which unravelled under the current ownership. Well-loved and yearning for more miles, this bike waits.
Final Thoughts
For the dedicated motorcyclist or eager newcomer, this 25th Anniversary Special with its hard-sided panniers, two keys, service records, and a clean Montana title isn’t just a purchase—it’s an investment in adventure, speed, and everything that motorcycles stand for. Offered at no reserve, this VFR800 is the stuff of dreams. Ready to ride?
Whether you’re a seasoned rider or someone who simply appreciates engineering elegance, this Nissan Leaf or BMW 5 Series-level craftsmanship, this piece of motorcycling history deserves a place in your garage.
