Stole this from BORN.

This RC30 has been with the 1st owner from July, 1990 until August, 2011 when it was traded in to my used bike store, Red Label Moto. It is a 49-state model that was sold new by the Brothers Honda to a local collector and former club racer who is also a good friend and customer. I've known about this bike since the late 90's when I met the 1st owner. I asked/pleaded/begged many times in the last 13 years to get a shot at the bike if he ever decided to part ways with it. A few months ago he decided that 21 years of ownership was enough and he traded the bike in.
It is # 004 of the 300 sold in the US. VIN: JH2RC3003LM200004 with 3568 miles on the clock.
This VFR750R is staggeringly nice/mint in every way having never been damaged, tracked or abused. I've seen a few with even more stupid levels of low mileage and perhaps some of those are just a tick better than # 004 in the cosmetics department. That being said, there are very few areas of this bike that do not present as-new or even perfect. It is just as nice in the flesh as the pictures indicate.
As someone might expect, the bike operates as well as it looks. Over the last 2-plus decades, it has always received the best of care. There have been a few instances it went unused for a long period of time. Every time that happened the owner woke the bike up by bringing it to the some of the best local Seattle area technicians/specialists to ensure there were no issues. Most recently (earlier this year) Alex at Max RPM went though the bike head to toe. Carbs, fluids, fork seals, engine tune, battery, etc. I just installed new Michelin Power Pure tires that have been ridden on 0 miles.
This bike has several upgrades that can all be reversed should some future owner wish to have the bike 100% stock. Some of these mods are now impossible to find.
~HRC magnesium racing wheels. 17" x 5.5" rear and 17" x 3.5" front. The gold paint and HRC decals on the wheels are original as these hoops have never been used for racing or needed refinishing. The 1st owner sourced these in the early 90's and even back then they were hard to come by. These wheels are very close to perfect condition and have only had tires levered on/off a few times.
~HRC ride height adjustor which is necessary or at least highly recommended for running a 17" rear wheel.
~HRC full racing stainless exhaust system. Again, not something you are likely to find on closeout at your local Honda dealer.
~HRC kit engine management ECU.
~HRC kit carburetor jetting and HRC diaphragms/needle slides.
~Custom aluminum open airbox/air filter holder. All of the stock airbox bits/pieces are in boxes and included. This is a very nice bit of kit that was custom made by a local fabricator. The bike is jetted/tuned to run pretty hard with this setup and the fierce intake sound is a nice side effect.
~Tidier front/rear turn signals. No, there were NOT any holes drilled in order to mount the front signals. There are clever little brackets behind the signals instead of holes in the fiberglass.
~Deleted reflectors.
~Removed peg feelers.
~Removed kickstand rubber extension tip. FYI the kickstand itself does have a few scrapes from touching down a time or two during spirited cornering.
All of the stock parts that were removed are included. Includes both factory keys, original tool roll, owner's maintenance manual, an HRC parts list set-up manual (xerox copy) and the display stand.
In my opinion, this is a very special machine. A fantastic, fully sorted RC30 that is ready to ride, show or collect.
