1988 Honda VFR400R NC24 Pro-Arm – The Baby V4 That Thinks It’s a GP Bike
£3, 750 – Located in the UK
MOT’d until 24/ 04/ 2025
This is a properly sorted example of Honda’s iconic NC24 – the one with the single-sided Pro-Arm swingarm and a V4 soundtrack. This isn’t just any 400, it’s a gear-driven cam, V4-revs all the way to 14, 000 rpm and more character than your mate’s pub stories.
It’s been fully restored and wants for nothing but a sunny day and a twisty B-road.
Highlights:
- Showing just 57km on the clock (that’s kilometres, not miles)
- Dyno-jetted and tuned by the legends at Dave Wood Racing, dyno sheet included to settle pub arguments.
- Pipercross foam air filter lets that V4 breathe with more induction honk than a goose convention!
- One tooth down on the front sprocket for a bit more snap – because stock gearing is for accountants!
- HEL braided brake lines front and rear – brakes sharper than your ex’s exit.
- Original exhaust in unusually good condition – no tatty cans or bodges here – no holes, welds or cheap cans!
- Starts easy, runs sweet, sounds glorious.
This isn’t a garage queen or a dodgy import – it’s a properly fettled, ready-to-ride slice of late-80s sportsbike history. Lightweight, rev-happy, and surprisingly usable, it’s the perfect summer toy or a solid appreciating classic to tuck away.
Lightweight, howls like a mini RC30, and guaranteed to make you feel like a ’90s TT legend on every ride.
Own something unique. Own something with gear-driven cams. Own something that isn’t another inline-four!
