The big-block Interceptors were a short-lived option here in the U.S. Introduced for the 1984 model year the "F" was not able to generate the needed sales and was replaced the very next year by the Euro "R" version.
With similar architecture to the VF700/750 Interceptors, the VF1000F was essentially a larger version, sporting 95 HP at the wheel. Unfortunately, the model was instantly overshadowed by Kawasaki's Ninja 900.
This particular example is special because it's a survivor. The seller represents it as an original, unmolested example with only 13,259 miles. The photos support that claim, with just enough patina evident to show that this is not a restored bike. The selling price is comfortably below the more desirable "R" model. For VF aficionados this would represent a great-looking addition to the stable.
