comes with conventional forks and radial calipers. hmmmm.. interesting combination, probably the first around.

ABS, traction control.

 

who is interested?

Look smaller and nicer....

Design wise, backwards. The 02 model looks "newer". The 98 Model had the trade mark cam gear whine which was removed. The 02 model loss the whine but gained great looks, nice zorst which show case the pro arm. This 2014 really looks erh boring. Hopefully the redemption factor is that the price is equally boring.

i think the price is going to be quite a put off..

somehow it gives me the feel of the recent cbr400r. doesnt have that vtec v4 premium high end feel of the past VFR. I'll prefer the old model to the new model. haha Edited November 9, 2013 by blackness

98 model has the awsome cam gear whine..... 02 model has the cutting edge look with proarm fully sexposed.... the 2014.....???

2014 has radial calipers and traction control. I have learnt to appreciate side exhaust compared to underseat, after owning a bike with underseat exhaust. But I do agree the proarm not fully exposed is abit of a waste here on the 2014.

 

sent from my 8850

Guess the heat can be an issue esp for SG, from the underseat zorst. Just pray for the price. But looking at the cross runner....
