Just took delivery of the new Interceptor.
Beautiful bike! Will need some work - carbs, brakes, clutch, and new tires. Nothing I can't handle.
This is my third Blue '87 and is in better condition than the other two, so I'm pretty stoked to have acquired her!

I think you have an addiction. But it doesn't hurt anyone, just your bank account. Have fun.
Ran up to Harbor Freight yesterday and grabbed a lift table for my storage unit. The storage unit that has electricity that I intend to keep. At least until I can build a shop/shed here.
I have the same lift table here at my house. But this will make it easier to service the bikes I have at that location. Lift tables are game changers when it comes time to work on a motorcycle!

My latest scooter arrived last night. It's the one in front with the proper Grey seat. The Blue seat on the back bike is for a RWB model. Eventually I will address everything.
This new one runs and rides amazing! It is my fourth '87 VFR700F in Blue.
Color choice in '86 was RWB (Red/White/Blue) and in '87 either Blue or White.
They only made this VFR700F Interceptor model for two years...'86 and '87. They are considered "Second Generation" Interceptors. Also know as RC-26 models.

Obviously you are correct.....because I have one more coming. This time from Milwaukee.
The newest acquisition......a 1984 Honda VF500F. Only 10K original miles. Runs perfect! About a 9/10 on condition. 
They only made these VF500F's for 3 years. '84-'86. I also own an '86 and love how it's rides!
The Honda VF 500 F, also known as the Interceptor in the United States and Canadian markets, was a sports motorcycle made from 1984 until 1986 when it was replaced by the Honda CBR600F "Hurricane." It was known as one of the finest handling machines of the 1980s.

Noticed the trailer mod. How did that go?
Good eye! It went really well, thanks. I transported an enduro first, which has a thinner front wheel/tire and it was a little looser than I'd like. But the Interceptor stayed upright on it's own really well.
Guess I'll fashion up some spacers for the narrower wheels.
Here's the one I just picked up this evening at the speedway. Mechanically - in excellent condition. Needs some help on the body - that's all. It's an early '86 VFR700 Interceptor. They only made them in RWB that year. This one has the wrong lower fairings on it and an aftermarket tail fairing that isn't really secured in the photo, but I'll fix that.
I swear - I do not plan on acquiring any more. At least for a while.

It's a good looking bike but will look much better with the white fairings.Here's the one I just picked up this evening at the speedway. Mechanically - in excellent condition.

Thanks, Todd! It will be like the one on the right in the photo below, which I have in my spares. Now I just need another for the other side.
Another 86? You keep buying motorcycles and you are going to need a second storage unit.
