The 1992 N-model was a carry-over year for the RC36 VFR750F, sharing its engine and chassis with the 1990-91 bikes; the white colour option was dropped. Testers liked the mid-range-focused V4, the protective fairing and the rear suspension, while criticising fork dive under braking and the modest fuel range.
