1996 Honda VFR750F RC36

I bought this VFR from the second owner who purchased the bike in 2000, the original owner was also from CT and this has been a local bike all of it's life.  Currently it only has 8,800 miles! The person I bought it from rode it occasionally and it sat most of the time in his garage.  Several years ago, the owner's wife accidentally touched it with her car and cracked the LS fairing (shown in the photos).  The damage is not terrible and certainly does not effect the enjoyment of the bike.  My intention was to make the bike perfect and I found that the mid section is still available from Honda and the upper is no longer in stock but is available on Ebay.  Not a problem!

Upon buying the bike, I cleaned the carbs, and washed the bike.  I also sourced the correct seat cover fastening screws, seat blanks and body panel bolts/grommets and miscellaneous o-rings from Honda. That's it!  Two weekends ago I took it up to the Catskills for a shake down run and it ran, handled and stopped perfectly, just like new. The suspension is firm, the bike runs and idles great and the brakes stop on a dime.  Everything works as it should, gauges, clock, lights, etc...

The Honda is as clean under the bodywork as it is on top.  Even the oil is clean! See the pictures.

This VFR only has 8,800 original miles and it runs and rides like a new motorcycle.  Most enthusiasts agree that the RC36 series of VFR Hondas are one of the best motorcycle ever made and I would have to agree, it runs perfectly and the engine, gear driven cams and Two Brother's exhaust make wonderful music.  I bought the bike with the intention of keeping it, but taxes are coming due the first of the year so it has to go.

This VFR750F RC36 has the following:

New Battery
Dunlop Sportmax Tires w/very low miles
RK O-Ring Chain
Two Brother's Aluminum Exhaust
Original Stock Exhaust Canister
Original Rear Seat Grab Rails 
4 - Extra Body Grommets p/n 64245-MJ4-670
2 - Extra Baody Grommets p/n 16010-MZ5-920
3 - Extra Body Bolts p/n 90112-MT4-0000
3 - Extra Body Pins p/n 90683-GR1-003
2 - Seat Blanks p/n 77220-MBG-000
Original Tool Kit
Original Lug Wrench
Original Spark Plug Wrench
Original Honda Owner's Manual
Clymer Service Manual

There a few minor nicks in the paint and on the wheel rims, really nothing major.

If you are looking for a really nice example of an RC36 this has got to be one of the nicest out there. Just a great motorcycle to ride and enjoy, or if you're a collector this one is perfect for you.

Even though this VFR750F is in excellent condition, it is being sold as-is, no warranty expressed or implied.  I will accept Pay Pal (if you agree to pay their fees!), wire transfer, check and of course, cash.  I will forward the CT title to the buyer upon receipt and clearing of the funds and will not release the motorcycle until the funds have cleared my bank. I will assist in shipping, both nationally and internationally as best as I can.  Thanks!
