October 2026 Bike of the Month

[FromMaine]

This months winner is a 36 year old V4, but you would be hard pressed to know that intuitively by looking at it.

Since I recently dug out my 1990 and rode it to Crossforks, it seems appropriate to showcase one of these earlier
versions. I had a 1991 when working in the UK about 10 years ago, and liked it so much I went looking for one on this side of the Atlantic. I ended up buying Slovcans, and imported it from Canada.

For me, they are one of the best bikes Honda ever made. The ergonomics work for a guy like me. The power delivery is a smooth, clean line of torque, the gear driven cams sound fantastic, the single sided swingarm with an 8 spoke swinging a 180 rear said it meant business.

So, Congratulations Teradyne, your 1990 VFR750F in Pearl White is Oct. 2026's BOTM.

Congratulations, Teradyne! Awesome BOTM pick, Michael!

I rode my Big Sabre to the local Honda dealer one summer day in 1990 and saw one of these beauties on the showroom floor. Since then, always wanted one!

Very nice!

Great pick, Michael.  I know someone (me) may have mentioned that we don't have time for the type of people that don't agree that VFR's should all be white at this years Cross Fork ride, but this pearl white is exquisite.
