2004 Honda VFR800 Overview and Review | A Racer's Pedigree

I disagree with adverse comments about your voice and presentation style. After watching so many super enthusiastic hyped up bloggers, yours was down to earth and a breath of fresh air. Good for my insomnia too! 😂

[@Mason_van_Bike]

Ha, thanks dude. I’ll take the compliments where I can get em

[@Ryanhwelton]

My 2002 VFR has been from Vancouver to Alaska and back, taken many road trips, track days, and embarrassed posers on sport bikes. She is heavy, comfy and sounds great.

I'm only 48 seconds in and it's so refreshing to see and here a relaxed casual report. If I wanted BS hype I'll turn on the TV. Looking forward to the rest. I just bought a 2007 black one with 3500km on it!!! Yay me. 😇

[@ChutesBrewing]

I've had my 2004 VFR for a few years now and tell folks it's my "do everything well" bike. It's one of the favorite bikes I've either owned or ridden, and it's a timeless look. Cheers!

It’s fantastic, eh? Thanks for watching!

[@aahr100]

Love the VFR and that addictive V4 especially at the VTEC transition. Had my 2008 from new and 55,000 miles and 12 years later still in love So stable, agile, reliable and fun when you want to get a wiggle on. A true classic

[@miles-thesleeper-monroe8466]

Without doubt the 6th gen is the pinnacle of combining one of the best production bikes ever made with sexy timeless styling. I still want one, but I had to buy a 5th gen for some reason, there's a dated purity or nostalgia to it. But essentially the same bike. Good video.

[@Mason_van_Bike]

Thanks for your kind words! I’d love to try a 5th gen too. I agree that the 5th gen has more of a nostalgic/90s feel to it than the 6th, despite not having too many changes.

[@dakota5041]

I had a 99, absolutely my favorite bike, gear driven cams sounded great all through the rev range

[@kamikazeren]

Nice review. I have the exact same bike, year and color. Love it. The side mounted radiators do add unwanted heat to your legs in the summer weather when you're stopped, but on the flipside they make for great hand warmers in the winter. Just slide your hand down between the fairing and the radiator and your hand gets toasty very quickly.

[@BroqHans]

Thanks a million for such a positive review. I just bought a clean looking 2002 today. I was won over by its do-it-all character immediately. (A shame the sound quality of your video is a little dogdy at times, but I'm sure you'll improve!). Cheers from Denmark.

100% agree with your comments, I have the exact same stock, year & colour. While I have had higher CC sport touring bikes this is a perfect all rounder. One thing it is not is a “Two-up tourer” when fully loaded up with the 3 x boxes but that’s okay as there are so many alternatives out there.

[@CS_247]

I have a 2002, owned since 2005 and have had a number of other similar size bikes since then, and I still prefer my old VFR over all of them. Amazing all-rounder, and on Micron exhausts, it sounds amazing.

[@ricwithers7907]

Good video. I bought an 02 VFR800 a couple months ago and agree with just about everything you said here. It’s very versatile, a lot of fun to ride, and that v4 sound - especially when the vtec kicks in - is amazing! One thing I’d add is that it feels super planted at speed on the highway. The bike just wants to eat up miles, and it feels effortless to ride for hours. But the bike is not at its best in city traffic. It tends to run a little hot, and between the fairing, dual radiators, and pipes under the seat, there were definitely some moments this summer I was feeling cooked on 95+ days here in Virginia! But all in all I have to admit I have really fallen in love with it!

[@steveo4141]

It does get a lil warm on hot days....you could install a switch on the fan so you can control when it comes on ...do u could engage it sooner if you find it really uncomfortable.... the fan (despite it's small size wrks well to cool it down though), admittedly it won't do anything to help cool the rider.

[@AW8UK]

Good review Found this useful. One of the best 6th Gen reviews I have seen. Your clarifying the VTEC differences between your bike & later 06 onwards models well explained. Nice to see someone do a review without goofy mates, showcasing , shouting or annoying music. I read somewhere that VTEC kick in at 6.8k rpm in highest gear is around 160 KPH . I am fairly safety focused & not planning to cruise at such speeds in the U.K. Couple of Q's : Q1 : Any experiences using the VFR800 ABS in wet &/or dry ? Q2 : Any road situations when 6.8k rpm VTEC kick in caused an unwanted issue ? Thanks

[@AW8UK]

@@Mason_van_Bike Really helpful reply ..appreciated. All makes sense & understood Stay safe Thanks again

[@steveo4141]

Doesn't matter how fast you're going ...Vtech kicks in at 6800rpm (2005 up until the newer ones where Honda lowered it) .....you notice it more the harder or more aggressively you haul back on the throttle... if you're gentle with it you won't even notice it. I've ridden a 2005 non ABS for the last 6yrs and love it .

[@christianriera2489]

Nice vid. I have a silver '08 VFR800A with Delks. Would have loved to have heard your VTEC kick in at some point in the vid tho! Can't get enough of that sound.

As a vfr owner myself,a 2007 model, I must say this review is accurate and informative, my thoughts on the bike having owned it 5 years are,its one of the best all round sports tourers on the market for the money.

No it isnt best, best sport/tourer on the market for the money is suzuki gsx s1000f

Great video, been a HD guy for a long time, 114 Softail currently. Picked up a 99 VFR with the gear cams, 4k miles original miles and mint. Love it so much picked up a 15 deluxe with matching side bags. To different bikes but love that V4. Maybe the best of both would be the 99 engine in the 15's body. Gotta love that sound of the gear driven cams.

Great users review. The VFR line certainly has a long history and been through quite an evolution. Still riding my '94 750.

Cheap on insurance, easy maintenance, reliable and a blast to ride. 62k and 27 years old and she still turns heads.

[@michaelmclarney1994]

Great upload, very informative. I'm considering buying a vfr and trying to decide between 5th and 6th generation.

[@DanBlake3rd]

I owned the exact bike in year and color. The aesthetics and sound are definitely it's best feature. I actually liked the VTEC "boost". It was _really_ hot in the summer, both between the knees and under the seat. I also felt like the seat was angled too steeply forward, making you feel like your family jewels were constantly in peril. The ergos were fine for sport riding, but not the best for 3 or 4 day trips. I ended up with the same seat and screen. Handling was acceptable, but did feel a little porky when pushed hard. A good looking bike, with excellent fit and finish. Heat management, weight, and a poorly designed seat (at least for my frame), prevented me from loving it. It was probably over engineered. I've heard that the previous gen was the one to own long term. Thanks for your review.

[@emromw]

Thanks for sharing. Did the heat make the bike more comfortably warm during colder months?

[@DanBlake3rd]

@@emromw Yes it did, but we don't get many of those in the SE US. Later in my bike journey, I had a KTM 990 Adventure. I guess that I didn't learn my roasted chestnuts lesson well enough :D. Never shall I own a bike with under seat exhaust again.

In all honesty these are a brilliant mid drift bike. As you say it does everything. Previously had L4, L3, v twins and parallel twins. There a brilliant all-rounder had 2002, 1998 and now on a 1999 and have used a vfr750 1992 for motorcycle instructions before. Personally I do Personally I do favor the gen 5 as the best only because of the smooth engine and the 929 rear shock conversion for better handling mine has 50k Miles and still tight with a pc3 power commander it's definitely will keep up with bigger more powerful bike in the corners road and track.

[@gvybin]

Nice video about your 6th gen VFR. I love the looks of that gen. I also like the looks of the RC36 version 2 , maybe the best looking classic VFR. I have maintained and riden a 4th Gen VFR ( a RC36 version 1) and it is a great bike. In the video you say that after riding a V4 engine, you can't go back to parrallel twins or 4 in line bikes. I know exactly what you mean by that , a VFR is always willing to pull ....BUT... One day you should ride a triple engine. You 'd be surprised. These engines pull lineair from down low in every gear, and rev up to 13000rpm. I own 2010 triumph street triple and I have riden yamaha's CP3 engine ( MT09 and tracer ) and they also sound good . Just give it a try one day. You are so right on the fact that these VFR are a real do it all bike. Commuting , sporty, touring. And they do it good. The one thing that annoys me on a VFR is its weight. I like my bikes a little lighter. Anyway , nice video, lovely bike, have fun with it.

[@1050cc]

I agree with everything you say. I'd love to try one, I love your detailed understanding of the history too ! Just one thing, you need to try the Triumph Sprint, every description you use could apply to it.. it's another do anything bike, with lots of charm that is a pure classic !

Thanks for watching! I’d love to try the Sprint! I’ve seen pictures and videos of it, but Triumphs of that age aren’t super common in Canada, sadly. I’ll see if I can find one someday. Another similar bike I’d love to try is the Aprilia Futura!

[@garmit61]

Great review but I can’t see why it’s so heavy. It must be around 240kg with a full tank of fuel. Does the VFR feel top heavy with 4 cylinders and two large high mounted cans? I was at the 24hr Le Mans when the rc30 debuted and demolished the opposition. Warp speed forward and the early 2000s and I was at Magny Cours (also France) when the Bol d’Or 24hr endurance race was evicted from Paul Richard circuit by that philistine Ecclestone. The SP1 was ripping through the field that day and it looked equally amazing. I owned a few Hondas in the 80s and loved them but seriously my CB900f2 was not much heavier than the VFR but my bike handled like a bucket of mud through the bends. Lovely looking classic you have there my friend. Thanks for sharing.

[@FlameHazeist]

A combination of being top heavy and having a less aggressive geometry. Quick changes of directions aren't its forte but it performs beautifully while trail braking and even outbrakes its lighter brethren.

Whats the riding position like? You mentioned it but couldnt actually see a good shot of you sitting on it. I'm coming from a ninja 300 most recently but having riden supersports in the past. I feel like the riding position is really similar to that of the ninja 300 with the neutral pegs but the clip on bars?

Yeah, super similar honestly. I used to ride a Ninja 250 and it feels very similar. I think the VFR feels a little longer so you might be slightly bent forward, but it’s really similar. More leg room on the VFR as well! I’m comfortable on it at 6’5, as is my buddy who owns one and he’s 6’0.

Sound problems. You need a decent mic. You need a little more passion in your voice. Honda slightly changed the frame geometry as well from 5th to 6th gen to make it turn in a little more easily.

I’d like to improve my presentation style even more, and I’m hoping that comes with practice. Still snow on the roads here though, so it’ll be a while before I’m back in front of a camera. Thanks for watching!

Last VFR was the 5 gen, that is not a real VFR to me.

The only difference is a chain driven cam... Give me a break!!! Not a big difference
