  1. My First Love And My Current Affair 17 Aug 2015 02:56 So I have been a member here for a few years now and I started out with a 1983 Honda Interceptor VF750F which I spent more time fixing than riding but it was my first bike and I fell in love with it. it was the bike I…
  2. Tom's Vf1000F Revival 15 May 2013 04:40 the VF750F in my opinion is better than the VF1000F and I have ridden both. the 750 feels lighter and more agile. can't say much for the R though.
  3. '84 Vf750F Project 9 May 2013 04:38 good idea with the stencil! I didn't do that and had to do it by eye. if there ever is a next time for me I'll definitively use that.
  4. '84 Vf750F Project 16 Apr 2013 02:39 looks amazing! I cant wait to see the end result. my bike is slowly coming together as well. What did you use to clean the engine? Edited April 16, 2013 by nedhills
  5. '84 Vf750F Project 23 Feb 2013 04:33 love the comstars! the A relay is for the signals and the tail light going on at the start is normal. looking forward to the re-build. good luck, Brenden
  6. 85 Vf1000R "bike In A Box" 11 Jan 2013 02:02 :worthlesswithoutpics: sounds sweet.
  7. My VF500 rebuild 6 Jan 2013 05:12 its looking good. when I re painted my bike It took a long time but the outcome was definitely worth it.
  8. Considering 1985 Vf500 Interceptor With 43K Miles 23 Nov 2012 18:53 I'm not an expert on the vf500f, but I have a vf750f and a vf1000f. the 750 has 24 000 miles and the 1000 has 40000 miles. you will have to do more maintenance but it is worth it. also the price is way to high. I bought…
  9. 1984 Cb700Sc: Retro Bike Project 31 Oct 2012 04:40 I am looking forward to this it will be awesome. also post some pics of the pc800.
  10. 1985 VF750F - never ending evolution 26 Oct 2012 01:16 I love the vf750f and I love what you've done to yours but in my personal opinion I like the stock exhaust and I think that the one you are looking at is to modern for the 750. other than that I LOVE YOUR BIKE! keep up…
