## Honda VTR1000F Firestorm — Immaculate Example | Only 17,200km
Exceptional Honda VTR1000F Firestorm presented in outstanding original condition with just 17,200 genuine kilometres from new.
This is a very clean, honest and exceptionally well cared for example of Honda’s iconic V-twin sports bike. Difficult to find in this condition, with these kilometres, and with this level of history and originality.
Powered by Honda’s legendary 996cc V-twin engine delivering effortless torque, smooth power delivery and one of the best sounding exhaust notes ever produced from a Honda sports bike.
The bike presents beautifully and rides exactly as it should.

I am the second owner and have owned the bike for nearly 10 years. It has been lovingly cared for its entire life and stored undercover for most of its existence. Never ridden in the rain and always kept exceptionally clean throughout. The condition of the paintwork, drivetrain, wheels and overall presentation genuinely reflects the low kilometres and careful ownership.
The Vance & Hines system gives the bike an incredible deep V-twin sound while still retaining its clean original appearance. Original exhausts are also included for those wanting factory originality.
Those who have had the privilege of owning and riding a VTR1000F will immediately appreciate just how rare it is to find a Firestorm presented in this type of genuine original condition. These bikes developed a loyal following for good reason — effortless torque, real-world comfort and incredible character that modern bikes often lack.
This is not a tired or abused example. It is a genuine enthusiast-owned motorcycle that would suit a collector, a mature rider, or someone seeking one of the cleanest Firestorms available.
Inspection will not disappoint.
