Not mine, but I'd go look at it for someone here who was seriously interested.

1986 VFR700 F-II. - $2000 (Columbia, MO)

1986 VFR700 F-II. 20,000 miles. All original equipment. Always garaged and professionally serviced. I have owned since 1990 and am second owner. I replaced chain/sprockets , had valves adjusted, new fork seals and new tires about 1000 miles ago. This month, I had carbs cleaned and adjusted and a new battery. Runs like new and has never been down. No leaks, no rust, no rips, no tears, nothing missing or damaged. An exceptionally clean bike. In 20 years, I think I have had it in the rain only once. The bike is a dream to ride but, reluctantly I am selling it and buying a cruiser for my old age. I’m 63 years old and my rocket days are behind me! I have original owner’s manual and shop manual from Honda. $2000. Firm.

Those were great bikes. Not true pocket rockets but smooth and the ergo's work for most people.

I loved mine. It didn't look as nice as that one but it was comfortable and sounded great even with the stock exhaust.

Buy that and store it. That bike will be worth quite a bit in stock shape one day.

That would be an excellent upgrage for my girlfriends bike. She's got an '88 VFR 250 that she likes alot, but its a little small now that she is comfortable on 2 wheels. Sigh. A little too far, and a little too much.
