2005 was the last year of the VTR1000F, which Wikipedia says was discontinued that year, with North American Super Hawk sales also ending. The bike was unchanged from the 2001-spec machine: the 996 cc 90-degree twin on two big CV carburettors, aluminium twin-spar frame and LCD dash. By then the twin-cylinder superbike role had long passed to the fuel-injected VTR1000 SP-2, leaving the Firestorm as the softer, road-biased V-twin of the range.
