About this model
About the Honda VF 500
The Honda VF500F (Interceptor) is a compact sports motorcycle produced from 1984 to 1986. It is powered by a liquid-cooled 498cc V4 four-cylinder with gear-driven camshafts, a technologically advanced design for its era. The VF500F was intended as a more accessible sibling to the larger VF750 Interceptor, packing a smooth-running V4 inside a competition-inspired half-fairing. It shares the V4 platform with the VF500C V30 Magna cruiser but has a sport tuning.
The VF500F targets sporty riders from the 1980s who wanted the sophistication of a four-cylinder in a compact package. Today the VF500F is a sought-after classic sports motorcycle; the V4 engine and period design attract a specific audience. As a classic it competes with the Yamaha RD500LC and Suzuki GS500. Technical knowledge of the V4 cam system is a prerequisite at purchase.

Before you buy
What to check before buying
- Check the V4 cam chains for wear; the gear-driven cam system on early Honda V4 engines is prone to ageing and breakage.
- Inspect all four carburettors for blockages and diaphragm leaks; re-jetting four carbs is specialist work and time-consuming.
- Check coolant hoses and the radiator for leaks; 40-year-old coolant hoses are aged and should be replaced preventively.
- Check the half-fairing and frame for hidden old crash damage; 1980s sports motorcycles are often previously dropped.
- Ask about the wiring harness condition; early 1980s Honda wiring is prone to insulation damage.
