Hi,
Not ridden a VFR but my stretched little wallet would not be happy with the VTEC one as the cost of checking and altering the valve clearances is insane (I believe they drop the engine out of the frame due to the complexities of engaging / disengaging the drive to the VTEC valves while the motor is not turning) I remember reading that getting change from £500 worth of labour would be an acheivement for the 16,000 mile service.....
