Where: Chicago, Illinois
Price: $5900
This particular VTEC 800 caught my eye on my local Facebook Marketplace for a few reasons. Beginning with the relatively rare Pearl Cosmic Black with muted silver wheels and progressing to a handful of desirable mods and accessories. The low 11,300 miles is just a bonus.
This is a non-ABS model, no factory luggage is included, and there's no details on the cosmetics, though the photos look great. For the asking price I would want a few more details and hope for recent tires to avoid that immediate expense. I'll let the seller handle the details:
"Full tune up; new spark plugs, manifold clean.
Carbon fiber brakes front and back.
Carbon fiber dual HBK exhaust.
Fresh clutch and brake flush.
Puig racing aftermarket tinted windshield.
Battery trickle charger installed, hidden wiring.
Sargent seat.
Handlebar risers.
Carbon wheel overlays.
Aftermarket sideview mirrors.
2 original keys.
I have a bunch of the OEM parts for the motorcycle as well."
$5900 is at the top of the range here, so I would expect some wriggle room, especially considering its local competition, see below…………...

Where: Bartlett, Illinois (Chicago)
Price: $6000
Skipping ahead two generations, here we have a Gen-8 in Pearl Glare White, "ready to ride" and showing only 9252 miles. This model represents the pinnacle of Interceptor development, and is generally regarded as the best balanced, most refined example of the breed. On top of that, this one is the rarer Deluxe which adds ABS, heated grips, traction control, self-cancelling turn signals and center stand.
This is a lot of VFR for $6000, all stock and lightly used. This is the one I would choose, how about you?
