Positioned in Honda's sport touring motorcycle lineup, the 2016 Honda VFR800F relies on a 782 cc (47.7 cu in) liquid-cooled v4, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 104.5 HP (76.3 kW) at 10,250 rpm while maximum torque reaches 75.1 Nm (55.4 lb-ft) at 8,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 133.6 HP per liter and a 1,750 rpm working window between peak torque (8,500 rpm) and peak power (10,250 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the VFR800F measures 239 kg (527 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.44 HP/kg (2.29 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 805 mm (31.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,460 mm (57.5 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 22-liter (5.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
