The Honda Motor Company was founded by Soichiro Honda in 1937, initially producing piston rings for Toyota. They made their first motorcycle in 1949 and within 10 years had become the biggest motorcycle manufacturer in the world. They have gone on to produce over 400 million two-wheelers as well as millions of other power products. The VFR400, first seen in the late 1980s was essentially scaled-down version of the larger capacity VFR models of the day and was mainly developed for, and sold in, the Japanese domestic market.
This VFR400 has been part of a large and fascinating collection of bikes ranging from the 1980s up until the early 2000s. The vendor has enjoyed searching out examples of more or less all of the bikes he either owned or wanted in the day, but after amassing over 30 assorted models, from a Honda MT50 through to a couple of Bimotas, he's decided to downsize his collection. It's rare to find a NC24 that has survived in original and standard condition, still fitted with a genuine 'HM MLO K' exhaust. The bike was last run in 2019 and has been stored since so will need recommissioning before use and comes supplied with a current V5C.
