The Honda VFR400 motorcycle is a small scale version of the VFR models of the day. They were manufactured mainly for the Japanese market due to its peculiar rules and regulations. However, the VFR400 is probably the biggest grey imported motorbike of this "mini" superbike segment.

The VFR400 evolved into the RVF400. The RVF400 was and still is the pinicale of small road bikes. Even though Honda stopped production of the RVF400 in 1996 or 1997 the bike is still an extremely popular model.
