Click on image for the Marketplace link What: 1986 VFR700 F2
Why: Nicely Refurbished VFR ;-)
Where: Naperville, Illinois
Price: $3900 asking
I came upon this FB Marketplace listing this morning and instantly recognized it as one of my projects. I completed and sold this very nice 700 in October of 2021 and it's accumulated less than 800 miles since that time, now showing just over 32,000.
The seller notes the very nice period-correct Corbin seat, but doesn't mention a few additional details like stainless brake lines or the custom "shorty" mufflers. I make these mufflers by shortening the originals by 5 1/2 inches, then painting them either silver or black. They sound great and, of course, fit the bike perfectly. I don't recall if I had the bike repainted but I think some of the panels may have been. I do know that the swingarm was stripped and polished, and there's later model front brake/clutch masters installed. The '86 F2 models came with the brown engine/valve covers and these are original, and the instrument nacelle was changed from the original blue to satin black. All the systems and cosmetics were attended to, as are all of my projects.
The seller states the it "runs excellent and looks the same." This one deserves more seat time — here's your chance at a very nice Gen-2 VFR. Contact the seller via the Marketplace link in the lead photo.
