Click on image for the RSBFS link. What: 1985 VF1000R Interceptor
Where: Clermont, Florida
Why: Low miles, nicely modded
Price: $7500
Here we have a refurbished first-year (U.S.) big-block Interceptor that's had a lot of thoughtful work done to make it an attractive and even practical rider-grade VF1000R. Showing 16,000 miles, the bike features upgraded suspension front & rear by DMr, very cool Yoshimura twin mufflers fitted and refreshed cosmetics.
The asking price of $7500 is a tough call, as we all know that originality holds value for elderly vehicles. Our builder wisely kept the look of the original while improving the basics. The "R" models can go for up to $10K for museum-quality originals, so this one may well be in the ballpark. The real reason this bike caught my attention is that, if I were interested in adding a VF1000 to my stable, this is exactly what I'd be looking for. And someone else has done the work!
