Let’s Get To Know About Honda VFR 1200F

The story of the VFR 1200F can be traced out to Honda’s home ground Japan and Tokyo to be even more specific at the time of Tokyo Motor Show. It all started back just a couple of year back in 2009. Isn’t this different from the other bike stories which we hear? The production of the first bike under this badge commenced in October 2009 with deliveries promised to start as early as the initial few months of 2010. 

This bike is in a way related to India. I’m pretty sure that most of you would have guessed it right. Yes, it is based on this bike that the CBR 250R’s design got evolved from. The side fairing, the headlamp design and to an extent even the colours of the CBR 250R were derived from this macho bike. That’s in fact one of the reason why both these bikes are better performers as tourers rather than being used as track bikes.

The VFR 1200F is the first ever bike from Honda’s stable to feature a Throttle – By – Wire system for perfect acceleration which also adds up to the just right kind of throttle control. The Electronic Control Unit (ECU) fitted in the bike takes in the rider’s throttle control as the input by constantly keeping a check on it and returns the throttle response which the rider requires at that point of time as output.
