The VFR400, first seen in the late 1980s, was essentially a scaled-down version of the larger-capacity VFR models of the day and was mainly developed for, and sold in, the Japanese domestic market, although they proved to be popular grey imports in other countries. With its alloy beam frame and Honda’s patented single-sided swinging arm together with a high-revving, gear-driven-cam vee four motor, the VF400 delivered superbike specification and performance in a small lightweight package. The NC30 version is distinguished by its left-hand side exhaust, making it a true mini-RC30 lookalike.
This VFR400R NC30 has been part of an enthusiast’s small private collection for nearly 25 years and enjoyed by him regularly for ride-outs and trips to the TT. Very rare in Britain, it is presented in good condition and is standard apart from an aftermarket end can. Most of these bikes ended up on the track so not many have survived in such original condition. Run recently, the Bridgestone Battlax tyres are fresh and the bike will be put through an MOT shortly before the auction. A fast-appreciating classic that's still a lot of fun to ride, it comes with a current V5C.
