This is old (2003) but it appears to have just been posted to YouTube in May.  I haven't seen it before, so I thought maybe some other folks hadn't either.  It's a British (Men & Motors) sports tourers top 10 shootout--guess which bike wins?  :wink:  (Jump to 19:37 if you don't want to watch the whole thing.)

I was actually surprised at the order and some of the reviewers comments were interesting. I think everyone of them made a comparison at some point to the VFR, albeit the earlier model so not surprising what the winner was.

When you're #1, everyone's gunning for you to knock you off the top.  Funny that at the outset of the narration of their #1 pick, the narrator says " . . . is the all conquering Honda VFR800FI VTEC . . . " while they're showing video of a 5th gen!  I guess I'll cut 'em some slack - the 6th gen was new at the time.   If I were going to add to the collection, it would be a well cared for Blackbird - brilliant bike.  Thanks for posting.

Cheers
