Honda VFR1200F considers VAT, fun and romance

Honda is pleased to announce the inspiring new VFR1200F will be available at Honda Motorcycle dealers from Valentine’s weekend in February 2010, with the additional benefits of a three year warranty and increased servicing intervals, at the attractive price of £11,475 (excluding current registration and road taxes of £121).

Heralded for its sleek lines and style, unrivalled quality of finish, awesome V4 engine and impressive all-round handling, the VFR1200F sets a new era in the development of motorcycles, just as Honda’s famous Fireblade did almost eighteen years ago.

Honda’s renowned quality and reliability, combined with the low maintenance shaft drive of the VFR1200F allows servicing intervals of 8,000 miles, or annually, after the initial 600 mile ‘running in’ service, therefore reducing ongoing servicing costs and maintenance. The VFR1200F also comes with three years AA roadside assist cover.

Steve Martindale, General Manager of Honda (UK) Motorcycles commented, “The new VFR1200F is the ultimate machine for style and great all-round riding appeal. We’re very pleased to be able to offer currently industry-leading warranty cover as well as increased servicing intervals to reduce annual running costs for our customers. We’ve worked hard to ensure the VFR1200F is priced attractively to reflect its quality and uniqueness, but also market conditions and customers’ expectations, whilst further taking into consideration the forthcoming VAT rise. This, coupled with the after-sales added value and reduced cost of ownership to customers will add to the already desirable nature of this bike and we look forward to seeing it in our dealerships and out on the roads next Spring.”

To see this exciting machine in the flesh, or to book a test ride, visit any one of Honda’s motorcycle dealerships nationwide on Saturday 13 or Sunday 14 February 2010 for the ‘Start Something Special’ Valentine’s weekend official launch.
