This morning I was enjoying my daily Craigslist & Coffee ritual when I decided to check in on Facebook Marketplace, looking for any interesting treasures in the rough. That's where I found our next project, a 1995 VFR750F in Pure Red Pearl, showing 38,000 miles...and in fine running condition. I love the NR-inspired look of the fourth-gen VFRs, the egos are sporty, but not sport bike, while the overall impression is one of refinement and class. Discerning buyers then and now are in on the secret of the unique V4 riding experience.
Sporting some rad boy-racer Revzilla stickers, this one actually presented itself pretty well, despite the seller's lackluster efforts. The bike has some comparatively minor cosmetic issues which should clean up nicely. A new rear tire is definitely called for but the Micron exhaust makes up for that. Negatives: The rear fender has been chopped and the seat cowl and grab handles are missing in action.
I was able to pump up the tires and get around the block a few times — nice running and riding VFR — and the tunes from that Micron are icing on the cake. Welcome to the family, Project 24.
See below for a short walk-around video, followed by a sound bite of the Micron pipe.
