This 2006 VFR800 Interceptor ABS gobbles up the miles, tackles the twisties, runs across town, can haul a passenger, can haul luggage, can go on tour, and delivers an epic V-4 soundtrack while doing so. Fairly upright ergonomics, decent wind protection, minimal vibrations, and aftermarket seat and suspension plus a torquey and willing powerplant make it a comfortable ride as well.   I'd love to keep it, but I've currently got two cars, one truck, five motorcycles, and I just bought something new, so I need to thin the herd and make some room in the garage!   Located in Portland, Oregon. Clean title in my name. I'm the second owner. Asking $3250 OBO for forum members. Motivated to sell; 7/21 price drop to $2950 OBO!

  • Runs and rides great
  • 85,500ish miles, so you know it hasn't been sitting for an extended period. Just remember that higher-mileage bikes don’t get to be high-mileage by being unreliable or having problems!
  • One-off custom Leo Vince titanium exhaust
  • Nearly-new Daugherty Motorsports custom suspension set up for 225-240 pounds. This fork/shock transformed the bike!
  • Sargent double saddle
  • Solo cowl cover, removable
  • Tinted windscreen
  • Bright PIAA headlight bulbs
  • Frame sliders
  • Lots of tread on the Michelin Pilot Road 2CT tires
  • Newish water pump
  • Cam tensioners and regulator/rectifier replaced under previous owner only a few thousand miles ago.
  • Comes with three oil filters and new sintered EBC brake pads
  • I have a magnetic tank bag and expandable tail bag I'll throw in as well. You can pack a surprising amount between the two.
The opportunities:  
  • Throttle/fueling can be slightly jerky when cold.
  • Tires have good tread but are old
  • Small gouge on left side of fairing, with mediocre touch up paint
  • Small Paint scuffs here and there commensurate with age/miles
  • Brakes will need pads (included) and a flush in the near to mid future

  Standard test ride terms; available with cash in hand; you drop it, you’ve bought it. Willing to help with delivery within 150 miles of Portland, OR. If you arrange shipping, I am willing to help on my end to meet/load.   Thanks for looking; please send me a PM with any questions or to discuss further.
