if the top speed its al we care 99.8% of all bikes are garbage.... The Vf1000 is a realy fun bike to drive...also never had a problem other than some eletric issue they are very realiable not like the all plastic modern ones...
By the way this is a VF1000F its the sportouring interceptor not the R so top speed 145mph japan 135 usa.almost same top speed...japan VF1000R goes 168 mph american 149mph. that why all ppl talk bulshit of the VF americans ruin it .... i dont even know if the 1984 kawasaki GPZ1000xr can reach 160 mph they where faster because the win the 0 to 60mph race...i dont have the luck of knowing the real word top speed of the 1984 GPZ1000xr i know the 1984 kawasaki gpz900r in real word 151-158 mph so its top speed 154.5... and ppl stay thing that gpz900 is faster than the VF1000R.....why always ppl forgot politics goverment limitation and publicity managment....the real perfomance is all there in the stock lap times in the real word...i know that the top speed of the 80's in production bikes was 171... an it was a yamaha...i will guess then that the japan VF1000R reaching 168mph stock is faster ot at least equal top speed as the Kawasaki gpz1000.Saludos de argentina the real word experience was that the GPZ was a little fas 0 to 60 and really similar 60 to 120 an faster 120 to 140 slower final speed i have got a VF1000F and a VF1000R and a GPZ900R and a GPZ1000xr.
At that time, cars over 750cc were not sold in Japan by gentleman's agreement, and even large motorcycles produced in Japan were imported from overseas.
That bike is killer man! I love it!
I have this bike but I’m too much of a chicken to push past 120mph. Lol
Hmmm i was playing around with a Subaru wrx @230kms literally playing with it .... whats wrong with your 1000 .? 😎🇦🇺
So how does 1985 U.S Model that is top speed?
Norwegian bike. Jeg har samme sykkelen. Samme farge også faktisk.
Very slow i had 2 of them back in the day.Cruise at 140mph tops 160.Early cbr1000f just had the better of me.
"slow" it's fast enough for most who ride, once you pass 100 you need more like 175 mph to actually outrun anything
to slow my friend .. my interceptor can 270 ..somthing it/s rong
The engine is probably tired by now
Hmmmm 🤔
HP ?
Potwierdzam ...dochodzi do 240 km/h
Sprzęgło zostało złamane. :(
Clutch is in bad condition
Very slow for a bike with 1000 ccm of this Age. Compare it with a Kawasaki GPZ 1000 and you sell this Honda Garbage.
