Honda RC30 (VFR750R)

Motorcycles and Powered Two- and Three-Wheelers

The VFR750R RC30 had a single generation, released first to the Japanese market in 1987, to Europe in 1988 and to the United States in 1990, with only 3,000 made. Its engine was a 748 cc gear driven V4 with 16 valves, double overhead camshafts and liquid cooling, derived from the RC24 but with a 360 degree big bang crank instead of the smoother 180 degree one, and almost no major part was the same as on the road going VFR750F. It had a single-sided swingarm, fully adjustable Showa suspension and a full stainless steel 4-2-1 exhaust. Each model year has its own page.
