Honda Interceptor description

I have a 1985 Honda VF1000R project that I have lost interest in. I have title, but still in previous owners name. I have $1,200 into it, but would accept a 'Best Offer'. Try me, you may be surprised.

If you are familiar with these bikes, you know how unique and advanced it was for 1985, but so heavy, it could not compete against the other race bikes of the time.

It might be worth more being parted out, but I dont want to mess with the effort that it would involve. Comes with a service manual.

Not in running condition, but close. I have not performed a compression or leak down test. Carbs have been rebuilt and installed.

Miles on ODO may not be representative of the bike, since it came in a box of parts when I bought it. Previous owner has several of these bikes, so ODO could have come from any other them.

Missing front plastics/fairing pieces and other misc bits.

Tank is solid with very light surface rust on inside, on spot welds.

Seat is in great condition and not faded. No holes.

I do not have the bump-cushion for the rear cowl.

If you want a specific picture or have a question, please feel free to ask.

Thank you

Cal Crutchlow has signed on to race for the LCR Honda team for the 2015 MotoGP season. To make the jump, Crutchlow secured an early termination to his contract with Ducati. The switch comes as a bit of a surprise after Crutchlow had confirmed he would honor the final year of his contract at World Ducati Week.

A Different Bike Magazine

Thu, 12 Feb 2009

Motorcycle Retro is a pet project of former Motorcyclist editor Mitch Boehm, launching as Motorcyclist Retro in early 2008 under the Source Interlink media umbrella. It featured a contemporary look at motorcycles of the 1960s through the 1980s. However, the circulation numbers of MR didn’t meet the expectations of the media conglomerate, and they cancelled production of the magazine after just two issues.
