Pics VTR1000 Superhawk compared to the VFR800 Interceptor
A guy at my work picked up a 2003 VFR800 and I was surprised the lines on the bike were so similar so I thought I would share some pics for others to see. Now if I could only afford to have both.

I had a 2004 VFR800 and loved it. If I could afford to have both, I would! Alas... The VTR is the better bike for me so it won... and the VFR was sold. I've taken both on monster trips and the VFR was definitely better suited for it... but now that I have a Sargent seat and Helibars, the VTR should be very comparable.

If you gotta take the bitch, the 800 is better. The front is pig ugly with all that busy headlight-fender stuff. You can't beat a hawk for clean lines and rockin fun.

That's amazing how similar the lines are. I love my VTR but that VFR sure is pretty!

I had a 93 VFR, (loved it - put 95K miles on it) and thanks to a run in with a deer I now have a Superhawk!

I think I got it from Free Street Design. I can't remember...I got it so long ago.

Love the exhaust, reminds me of the MV Agusta F4. I'll bet it sounds sick.

It is free street design. I've never heard of them, they make a good looking undertail for the VTR as well. How much was the VFR's? The website doesn't list prices. Also, how bright are the lights? A lot of undertails have lights that aren't worth a crap, I like to be seen.

It looks like the VTR's space is quite a bit longer than the VFR's, is this correct? I am looking at the "end of seat - handlebars"-gap

It's actually pretty close to the same. I've got Genmar risers on my VFR so that makes it more upright, the tank is a bit wider as is the seat so the VFR is more comfy. The VFR's pegs seem to be lower too and that helps a lot on long rides.
