Click on image for the M'place ad What: 2001 VFR800 FI
Why: Nice condition, low-ish miles
Where: Mt. Zion, Illinois
Price: $5200
Here we have a final-year Gen-5, a model which many consider the sweet spot for the VFR lineage. Boasting many upgrades over the previous carbureted V4s but still retaining the iconic gear-driven cams, these bikes sit high on the classic sport touring ladder.
This one is waiting in central Illinois and said to be a 2-owner bike showing just shy of 20,000 miles with newer tires and beautiful paintwork, at least according to the photos. Not many details in the ad, but I do spy an aftermarket seat, slip-on muffler and windscreen. If there's a little room on the asking price, this could be a winner.

Click on image for the M'place ad What: 1984 VF1100S Sabre
Why: Great condition, low miles
Where: Danvers, MA
Price: $5250
This one really is kinda special. A big-block V65 Sabre dressed in the optional swoopy fairing from the CBX with only 12,131 miles and looking like a time capsule. Even the aftermarket tail pack manages to match the factory colors.
Our seller is prone to some marketing hyperbole but this example might be worthy of some special words:
"...it has been lovingly preserved and maintained to an exceptional standard. The paint gleams, the chrome shines, and the engine pulls like the day it left the showroom floor. Everything functions as it should, and it rides like a dream — smooth, powerful, and confidence-inspiring."
Looking closely at the photos, the finishes do, in fact, reflect the low miles and 42 years of caring owners. With some additional detailing this could really make a statement for its next caretaker. The asking price is at the high end, for sure, but could be easily rationalized for the right buyer.
