Vf1000R
Honda · on record 1994 to 2025
Red List classification, from population, five year trajectory and survival against peak. Reviewed each census.
2025 census
30.8% of the peak fleet remains licensed
peak 91 in 1996 · +3 vehicles a year, five year trend
Population history
Licensed and SORN vehicles at each census. Filters apply to the population, MOT and registration figures together.
Inside the surviving fleet
AutoCensus parses every DVLA variant description, so the fleet can be read by fuel and specification rather than as one number.
First registrations by year
When surviving examples first joined the British fleet.
Recent UK first registrations
This family is no longer sold new. These figures are imports and historic vehicles joining the British register for the first time.
MOT reliability
DVSA test results for this family, 2005 to 2020.
| Failure reason | Failures | Share of all tests |
|---|---|---|
| A hazard warning device does not cause all the direction indicators to flash simultaneously with the ignition both on and off | 1 | 5.9% |
| The grooves of the tread pattern are not at least 1.6mm throughout a continuous band comprising the central three-quarters of the breadth of tread, and round the entire outer circumference of the tyre | 1 | 5.9% |
| A hazard warning device does not cause all the direction indicators to flash simultaneously with the ignition both on and off | 1 | 5.9% |
Counted across every recorded test, 2005 to 2020. Advisories are excluded.
Where the Vf1000R remains
Based on MOT test locations, 2020. Test location is a proxy: a vehicle is counted where it was last tested, not where it is kept.
| Postcode area | Vehicles tested | Pass rate |

How this record was calculated
Full methodology
Population figures count vehicles recorded as licensed or SORN in the DVLA quarterly extract. Figures before 2014 cover Great Britain only. Vehicles are grouped into this family by the DVLA GenModel key shown above, with routing rules for known inconsistencies.
Variant figures are parsed from raw DVLA model descriptions and the original string is always retained. Blank transmission fields are shown as manual because DVLA records the field for automatic vehicles.
MOT figures count tests, not vehicles, and geographic figures count each vehicle at its most recent test location. The decline projection is a straight line fitted to the latest five years and is illustrative only.
