The V4s do make an awesome noise once they get spinning.  Mine has a Micron race can fitted...  ::)

My VFR has gear-driven cams and with the standard can the engine makes more noise than the exhaust!

If the weather keeps going the way it has been..its quite possable that i may just get a bit of riding in..mostly to get used to the machine.

Heres a couple pics of the Interceptor..took it when i went to finish paying the bike off on my lunch break today.


Way cool -- glad it worked out!  I'd love to take it for a ride.

Looks great! 

I had an '85 750 and loved it - it was my first street bike and, as mentioned by others, I wish I had never sold it.  However it went to good hands and is being ridden and maintained with great care, so that's cool.

Enjoy your bike when spring comes around again.

Had a ride on a VF1000 last week to compare it to my VFR.

Very slim bike, easy to ride in traffic and I like the twin exhausts.

the twin exhausts is one of the things that drew me to the VF. that and the quarter fairing/chin fairing  look of the bike. Basicly the early VFs were factory street fighter style bikes.
