Honda introduced the VFR 1200F sport touring bike at the 2009 Tokyo Motor Show. This new edge bike features a radical new design from the Japanese manufacturer, with a X-shaped front fascia. The VFR 1200F continues the maker's legacy of the V4 engine architecture, but this time without Honda's famous V-TEC technology replaced by the Unicam valvetrain. The VFR 1200F is the first production motorcycle to have a dual-clutch transmission. The bike's futuristic looking fairing is inspired form Honda's MotoGP experience, while the 1237 cc liquid-cooled V4 engine features a new Throttle-By-Wire system.
