Honda VFR750F (RC24, 1986-1989)

The Honda VFR750F sports tourist model was introduced in 1986, mainly for the markets of Europe, North America, Oceania and Japan. The motorcycle replaced the previous version of the Honda VF750F and was originally created as a competitor for Suzuki GSX-R750. Unlike its predecessor, the VFR750F model received a new engine, which has undergone serious revision and lightening, thanks to which the resource has significantly increased (the previous version of the engine was not entirely successful and gained a negative reputation).

Lineup:

Main competitors:

The basis was a V-shaped (90 °) 4-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with a volume of 748 cm³, producing up to 105 hp. power and up to 74 Nm of torque. The Japanese motorcycle specification limited the maximum power to 77 hp. and 64 Nm of torque. The main feature of the motor is the timing system drive, which is made in the form of gears - this design significantly increases the reliability of the entire timing unit and makes it practically maintenance-free throughout the entire service life of the motorcycle.

In 1988, the model undergoes a slight restyling. The diameter of the fork stays is increased (37 → 41 mm), the motorcycle gets 17 'wheels, enlarged front brake discs (276 → 296 mm), the size of the intake valves and the length of the intake.

Since 1990, the Honda VFR750F has undergone a serious restyling (RC36 generation). The model gets a new look, a new frame, a cantilever swingarm, a new engine, carburetor, wheels and suspension.

In 1994, the model is last updated with a slightly redesigned appearance, reduced weight, a new front fork (with preload adjustment), a new rear shock absorber (with rebound damping), an enlarged fuel tank (19 → 21 L) and new flat choke carburettors.

Other features of the Honda VFR750F include an aluminum frame, adjustable suspensions (on the latest generations), a cantilever rear swingarm, a 21-liter fuel tank (in the latest generation), a 6-speed gearbox and 237 kg of curb weight (in the latest generation).

1997 was the last year of production of the model, after which it left the market, giving way to a new model - Honda VFR800F.
