  Honda VF and VFR - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The VF and VFR series motorcycle was a breakthrough engine design from Honda resulting in what has come to be generally accepted by magazine reviews, year after year, to be the best all-round street bike built to-date.
The earliest VF series engine was designated the V45 for its size (45 in³ or 748 cc), was very narrow being only 16 inches (406 mm) wide, and had perfect primary balance making for a smooth, vibration-free engine.
1983 was a new year and a new start for the VF series of bikes, seeing the engine revised to correct the problems from the previous model year, and saw the introduction of the V65 and the Interceptor.

 VTEC - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Honda's VTEC system is a simple and fairly elegant method of endowing the engine with multiple camshaft profiles optimized for low and high RPM operations.
Honda's next version of VTEC, VTEC-E, was used in a slightly different way; instead of optimising performance at high RPMs, it was used to increase efficiency at low RPMs.
Apart from the Japanese market-only Honda CB400 Super Four Hyper VTEC, introduced in 1999, the first worldwide implementation of VTEC technology in a motorcycle occurred with the introduction of Honda's VFR800 sportbike in 2002.

The deliberately understated VFR has never been one of the most outstanding lookers - yet the white paint job completely transformed it into a class act, as pleasing on the eye as it was to ride.
Honda aren't the only ones to have perpetrated murder most foul; the history of Japanese motor cycling is peppered with similar heinous crimes (coincidentally, though, the previous most serious offence also concerns a white bike.
It's pleasing that Honda have resisted the temp tation to cut corners in order to produce a machine that might have cost a few bob less, but would lack the refinement that has become the VFR's trademark.

The story of the Honda VFR Interceptor is the story of a great motorcycle built on the shoulders of its outstandingly innovative, but flawed, predecessors.
As Salvadori engagingly recounts, by the early 1980s, Honda had built a reputation for setting the technological pace in the motorcycle industry, and the introduction of V-four engines into the lineup was meant to raise the bar once again.
Honda's commitment to the V-four concept could have sunk a lesser company, were it not for their tradition of fiercely independent thinking and near-religious zeal for quality.

As reports of dead rectifier/regulator units for VFR 750s were on the increase, and I have a '97 VFR 750, I decided to have a good look at my unit and do some testing.
The rectifier/regulator does not mate flush with the frame (slight air gaps) and is not transferring heat to the frame as efficiently as it could (hence the temp.
There is about 3.5 inches of clearance between the rectifier/regulator and the cowling on the 94+ VFR which should allow room for additional heat sinks to be fitted.
