2019
The 2019 Honda VFR1200F marks the final year of production for this sport touring motorcycle, a machine that evolved from Honda's legendary VFR lineage. It aimed to bridge the gap between pure sportbikes and dedicated touring machines, offering a potent engine and comfortable ergonomics for longer rides. Direct competitors at the time included bikes like the BMW K1300S and Kawasaki ZZR1400, all vying for the attention of riders seeking a sporty yet practical experience.
At the heart of the VFR1200F is its potent 1237.0 ccm (75.48 cubic inches) V4, four-stroke engine. This powerplant produces a substantial 170.3 HP (124.3 kW ) at 10000 RPM, allowing for rapid acceleration and effortless high-speed cruising. The engine also generates a significant amount of torque, peaking at 129.0 Nm (13.2 kgf-m or 95.2 ft.lbs) at 8750 RPM. This ensures strong pulling power across a wide rev range, making overtaking maneuvers easy. With a fuel capacity of 18.93 litres (5.00 US gallons), the VFR1200F offers a decent range between fill-ups, suitable for extended journeys.
The VFR1200F offers a comfortable, upright riding position, favoring longer distances over track-focused ergonomics. While not a dedicated tourer, the riding position is relaxed enough for hours in the saddle. The seat height is set at 815 mm (32.1 inches) in its lowest setting, which makes the bike accessible to a wide range of riders. The bike’s suspension and chassis provide a stable and planted feel, inspiring confidence in various road conditions.
The 2019 Honda VFR1200F appeals to experienced riders who want a motorcycle that can handle weekend getaways and longer trips without sacrificing the excitement of a powerful engine. It's for someone who appreciates a refined and capable machine that doesn't scream for attention but delivers performance when needed. The VFR1200F provides a unique riding experience with its V4 engine and comfortable ergonomics.

• Relatively heavy weight compared to other sport-touring options can make it feel less nimble in tight corners or low-speed maneuvers. • Fuel economy is not exceptional for its class, especially when ridden aggressively, requiring more frequent fuel stops on longer journeys. • The original stock exhaust is quite quiet, which some riders may find lacking in character and aural excitement. • Limited aftermarket support compared to more popular models, potentially making it harder to find specific accessories or modifications.With 170 HP, requires full Class A license.
