Instead of being fully upgraded as a 2009 model year, the bike still features the VTEC V4 engine, the only important addition being the C-ABS system, but only as an option. Also, the white paint scheme now available further enhances the awesome VFR design and that’s pretty much all that this bike brings new in 2009.

But you should never doubt the performance of a VFR engine. The V4 – VTEC with electronic fuel injection, which distributes power in two different stages by implementing an ingenious valve opening system, is both a great power source and an economical engine depending on the riding preferences of each rider.

The engine is positioned on a nimble double – beam aluminum frame ensuring that the handling abilities would stay true to the VFR name.

Honda seems to have impressed by not doing almost anything to this model, but that’s apparently a method two. What riders would have expected was more of a sport-oriented motorcycle, but Honda is keen on the touring side. After all, that’s what the VFR was all about in the first place, a fast and yet very comfortable model.
