The Honda VF1000F Interceptor (VF standing for V-Four) was launched in 1984 as the flagship of the V4 line. Featuring a DOHC 998cc engine that produced 113 horsepower, adjustable Pro-Link suspension, and triple discs, this bike was released in response to America’s demand for an even bigger Interceptor.
Retailing at $4,995, this bike entered a competitive marketplace, but it struck the perfect balance for most riders. As Motor Cyclist put it,
“It’s currently the only machine that gives a sport rider good sporting handling and the overall engine performance that you’d expect from the newest generation of superbikes.”
