VFR1200F full road test review
I hope you're okay with me posting this link but there's so much interest in this bike. I rode the new VFR at the press launch in Spain, and found it quite disappointing. Here's the report:

" the VFR1200 won’t cut it as a Blackbird replacement. To be fair Honda is not pitching it as such, but with less weight and a better range it could easily have filled that gap in Honda’s line-up. But you can’t go as fast or as far as a Blackbird with the VFR, so those owners will be looking elsewhere. "
Good article, the best I have seen to date. I'll never understand why this is designated a sportbike and not a sport tour.
