2005 Honda VFR
For nearly 20 years, Honda's world-renowned VFR has consistently been hailed
as one of the finest all-round motorcycles-of any displacement-on the roads of
Europe. A machine so remarkably well tuned that it feels just as comfortable and
confident flying up and down mountain passes as it does cruising the motorways
between your various destinations.
The VFR's unique fuel-injected V4 engine produces a seamless band of strong,
accessible power. Its ingenious VTEC 2-stage valve actuation system delivers both the
low-end torque of a 2-valve engine and the searing power of the highest-performance 4-
valve mills, for exhilarating performance in all riding situations.
Styled for a new age of riding and touring enjoyment, the VFR's fine-tuned
aluminium chassis provides flawless handling for the ultimate in responsive and
confident control. This control also extends to the VFR's specially configured Dual
Combined Brake System, which ensures effortlessly smooth and effective stops.
Designed to be fitted with matching optional luggage, the VFR also sets the
highest standards of performance and pleasure as a highly capable tourer whenever
one's riding enjoyment extends far over the horizon.
In its deluxe ABS version, the VFR's exhilarating blend of sport bike power and
handling are further elevated by the sublime braking performance of Honda's most
advanced Antilock Brake System, for confident braking control over virtually any road
and riding conditions, and the most satisfying balance of performance and comfort to be
found in motorcycling.
