Why: Low miles, good looker
Where: Ft. Myers, Florida
Price: BaT auction
UPDATE: SOLD $6500
After twice being turned down by Bring a Trailer to feature two of my project bikes, it's actually heartening to see a "pedestrian" VFR featured on the site, and this one's already bidding above market value with six days remaining on the auction.
Showing 12,000 miles and looking great from about ten feet, this example was obviously cared for and kept from the elements. There's a few flaws and a few extras — a cool Corbin Smuggler seat, Pazzo levers, bar risers and a throttle friction lock, but overall the bike has a reassuringly original look. No word on the deeper dive maintenance chores, but the bike certainly exudes a ready-to-ride air.
A nice 4th-gen is (has been?) a $5000 bike on a good day, and, even with the usual BaT inflationary influence, hitting $6K on day two bodes well for the seller…and all of us in the VFR world.
