Honda VFR800 Pictures Gallery Wallpapers - The Honda VFR800, also known in some markets as the Interceptor, is a motorcycle sold by Honda since 1998 featuring a V-4 engine configuration shared with the Honda VF and VFR family of motorcycles. The VFR features heavier construction and a more upright riding position than a pure sport bike, though lower than a cruiser. Lighter and more aggressive than a pure touring motorcycle, the "viffer" revived the category known as the sport touring motorcycle first created by the BMW R100RS.
The VFR800's predecessor was the VFR750F (700 in the United States), which scored highly in many press reviews upon its introduction in 1986. While the new VFR was originally intended to be a sports bike, the introduction of lighter competitors (including the nearly 30 kg or 66 lb lighter GSX-R750) prompted Honda in 1990 to transition the VFR into a mid-sized sport touring bike, a category of which the VFR became the de facto benchmark. However, by 1997, the Triumph Sprint ST and the Ducati ST2 and ST4 presented Honda with significant sports-touring competition, so Honda responded with an all-new VFR, the VFR800, in 1998.
