Honda VF1000F Interceptor
Saw this on CL: http://denver.craigslist.org/mcy/2902834947.html. It's the first one and had chain-driven cams instead of gears. But it's still pretty nice looking, and the price is right. Plus only 30k miles.

they were very heavy. I was never much of a fan of those.
VF1000R on the other hand,... |

I didn't know you had a 500???
I love mine to death when its running right. The 500's are a fucking riot when they are healthy... just plagued with too many problems. It was Honda's first attempt that they kinda fucked up. Prone to top end oiling problems, burned valves, too soft cams, dropped valves, and blown head gaskets.
