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 vee-twin VTR1000, introduced in 1997, was built by Honda to compete with Ducati in the showroom and on the race track going on to win two World Superbike Championships for Colin Edwards in 2000 and 2002.

This VTR1000F 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. The bike is offered in standard and original condition fitted with a pair of Quill Tri Oval stainless end cans. Last run about 3 years ago it will need recommissioning before use and comes supplied with lots of old MOTs and current V5C.
