FS/FT: 1998 Honda VFR800 Interceptor Year: 1998
Make: Honda
Model: S2000
Price: $3250
Mileage: 33000
Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (State): PA
Color: Red
Transmission: Manual
Drivetrain: Rear Wheel Drive
Description: I'm looking to sell or trade my 1998 Honda VFR800 Interceptor. I'm looking to trade it for a Honda car - MUST be an HB VX, HF, HX or other very high efficiency model (50 MPG highway or better). Must also have air conditioning that works and the car must be in good condition, aka something I can start commuting with now! I'll also sell the bike for cash
My VFR has a gear-driven cam, which sounds incredible. The best I can describe the engine noise is like the whine of a supercharger. The exhaust note is also amazing. It's similar to a small block Chevy at wide open throttle.
The bad: Rear wheel has some missing paint due to prior owner spilling brake fluid years ago, minor scratches and paint fade on plastic. Prior owner also drilled a few small holes into the fairing for additional cooling. Looks fine in my opinion. This bike has never been wrecked or rebuilt!
What the bike has: 33,XXX miles running on Mobil 1 fully synthetic motorcycle oil, RARE Single Sided Swing arm, high mount Two Brothers carbon fiber pipe, Power Commander II, blue LED gauge cluster lighting, 4300K bi-xenon dual H4 HID setup, twin rear brake/running light LED drop in clusters (You can see at night and be seen during the day!), also includes a solid paint matched rear seat cover, Corbin seat with provision for backrest (backrest not included), Zero Gravity tinted windscreen. Both front and rear tires are new (within the past 2 years).
The best time I could pull off was an 11.6 @ 119 MPH at Cecil County Dragway in MD. I've taken it there once just to see what it could do.
The bike runs strong, looks great, and sounds amazing! I have videos and photos upon request. I'm 6'4" and this is one of the most comfortable bikes I've been on. My fiance and I typically ride 200+ miles a weekend on it. The ONLY reason I am selling it is that we just bought a house and I need an all weather vehicle for my 56 mile round trip commute.

And to hear some decent motor sound:

Thanks!

Last price drop of the season. Perfect fall weather for some great riding!
$2500
If it doesn't sell for this price or we cannot work out a trade it's going in the garage during winter and back on the market in spring for $3250.
