Honda Reveals New 2015 Vfr800X Crossrunner

Honda states: “The heart of the machine remains its VTEC-equipped 90° V4 DOHC 16 valve engine, which now offers increased low and mid-range torque for flexible, effortless drive, plus increased peak power of 105bhp, delivered at 10,250rpm.

6th Gen or 8th Gen motor?

A bit pointless with a 6th Gen methinks.

Isn't that the exact same HP rating as the 2014 VFR800F/FD?

Good discussion already underway here.

I wonder if it's still limited to 125 mph.

My husband (which is on VFRD) took one out for a ride. Honda had some nice looking bikes, but their fueling sucks! He was debating on the new VFR as he had ride then for years. He actually ended up purchasing the Yamaha FZ8 and loves it. No Power Commander needed! Just came back from playing in Arkansas and he ride this bike better than the VFRs he had rode in the past. We do still have 3 VFRs in the shop, but they will pretty much stay there. One is more of a show bike, the other 2 well be sold in the next year.

Nice looker with the "new" vfr 800 engine which has been reported to have much smoother fueling than the 6th generation. Could be a fun machine.

Looks good.

I'd think anyone looking at the vstrom 650 or 1000, this could be a better option.

If they give it a Frunk, I am all over it.

If adventure bikes float your boat, this would be a very good option.....that motor is fantastic.
