Click on image for the eBay link. What: 2002 VFR800
Where: Houston, Texas
Why: Great bike, great value
Price: $3399 or make offer
When shopping for a used vehicle, there's a certain kind of seller's vibe you're looking for. Sometimes you just get a bad feeling about a seller...and sometimes just the opposite. Here we have the latter.
This first-year VFR800 VTEC is a shining example of what you want to stumble across when shopping for a pre-owned VFR, or any used bike, for that matter: Original condition, check. Low miles, check. Responsible mature owners, check. Full disclosure, check. Showing only 6475 miles, non-ABS, and some recent maintenance completed, this one appears to need only an enthusiastic rider. The original paperwork, manual and toolkit are still with the bike. Our seller takes some pains to point out the imperfections from a garage fall but the brilliant Italian Red still impresses. As far as value goes, the seller is in the ballpark and there's some wiggle room. If you're in the market for a VTEC, this may be your next ride.
UPDATE: No sale; for another chance at this one, here's a link to the local C-list ad:
