The Honda VFR800 (Interceptor) is a sport touring motorcycle made by Honda since 1998. [1] The model was the successor to the VFR750F and shares the V4 engine configuration with the Honda VF and VFR series. The VFR800 name was given to three successive iterations of Honda V4 motorcycles: 1998–2001 (RC46) VFR800Fi; 2002–2013 (RC46) VFR800 VTEC
It went on sale in 2011, [2] with first deliveries later that summer. [3] Its 782 cc (47.7 cu in) V4 engine was derived from the successful VFR800. [1] While the VFR800 was a sport touring motorcycle, the Crossrunner has a low saddle, wide-handlebars, long-travel suspension, and special Pirelli Scorpion tires better suited to "soft roads".
Honda also developed a limited edition VFR, the Honda RC30, as a homologation racing platform. This motorcycle achieved some racing success, but the introduction of very light inline-four motorcycles by competing firms led Honda to downgrade its racing plans. Honda's VF model lineup had engine capacities ranging from 400 cc to 1,000 cc.
The transverse-mounted V4 architecture is kept from previous VFR models though the engine and gearbox are completely new with displacement increased from 800 to 1200 cubic centimeters. A slightly de-tuned version of the engine, and the same gearbox, have been used on the VFR1200X Crosstourer , a dual-sport motorcycle launched in 2011.
The Honda Crosstourer (also called VFR1200X) is an adventure motorcycle made by Honda since 2012. It was announced at the 2011 EICMA motorcycle show in Milan. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The 1,237 cc (75.5 cu in) V4 engine is a re-tuned version of the engine that was first used on the 2010 VFR1200F model. [ 3 ]
