The VF1000F (sold in the US as the VF1000F Interceptor) was Honda's 1984 litre-class sports bike, scaling up the VF750F Interceptor with a 998 cc liquid-cooled V4 using chain-driven cams. Contemporary group tests praised its strong engine and easy manners but criticised a soft front brake and some high-speed instability, and it was a big, heavy machine by sports-bike standards.
