VFR VTEC weight - 213kg Sprint ST1050 weight - 207kg VFR VTEC Power - 107 bhp Sprint ST1050 power - 125 bhp Both are great 'sports tourers' - more than capable of scratching with a ss600 or running two up all day in relative comfort. I went for the Sprint as I had heard that viffers are for old duffers and girls
