thank you! this is huge help for eveyrone! don't need em right now, but i'll know where to go . . . hmm, but i could use a new windscreen. . .

i find that chuck is hard to get a hold of outside ebay (well this was a few years back)

[chimeraone]

Glad you found the sources helpful.

Currently I am evaluating several Honda Factory Rear Shocks (purcahsed on e-bay to see if they can be fitted to the Generation 2 VFRs. I only purchased shocks that can be upgraded with a Race Tech Gold Valve Kit and Custom Springs.

If I get something to work I will post the information as well. My cost targets are low mileage used shocks under $100.00. The custom springs run $110.00 and the Valve Kit costs $190.00. But I will test the stock shocks before I do the upgrades.

[WhiteKnight]

After reading this post, well the beginning of it anyway, I thought it held some very good info as well as links to various sources and so I have made it a sticky so it will show up first.

[savedrider]

Thanks for the sticky! I didn't know this thread existed and it's extremely helpful.

[the-chauffeur]

If you get really stuck, David Silver Spares in the UK always have comprehensive stocks of useful Honda bits and pieces.

Alternatively, fibreglass replacement panels can be bought in the UK from Skidmarx . Not the only place - but they seem to be the cheapest. Replacement fairing panels are around £86.

Hello, I recently purchased some body parts from vfrchuck on ebay for my 1986 vfr and other than the fact that they are fiberglass they are pritty good and he offers complete kits he said ? SPEED

[andpar]

That decal site is cheap and sells them indiviudly great for my bike because im painting the stripe!!

[Trackmagic22h]

Who sells clear stock sized windscreens for a 1986 VFR? Looking at the links it seems they are more touring screens.

[bear]

MRA sells windscreens (twisted throttle sells them), and decals can also be got from www.cbdecals.com. I used them for the decals for the 1000F and 1000R.

Dennis Kirk carries them. I think they are made by Maier.

Hey Chuck, what do you mean by headers for the Bike? I need from the headers back. I picked up a used Yoshi and some prebent tubing to try and fabricate my owen but Im not a good welder . BTW, I ordered both lowers, the upper, front fender, inner panels, and stayes from Chuck and quality is good. Some parts need some finish filling and sanding but others like the inner panels are nice and ready to mount. I have not gotten the lowers yet but will check back in as I reconstruct my totaled 86 VFR 750. It is up and running well, just looks dumb all naked

[Chris71Mach1]

chuck,

how much do you charge for the inner panels (the ones adjacent to the upper), and do they come with the rubber stripping that the stock ones have?

[midias]

I just got some of those off ebay from him I think 72 shipped the quality was awesome and yes they come with the rubber strip.

Hello, just had to do a small repair on my tank. was looking to get a tank cover. anybody have one or a site? targa is no longer making them. just missed the sale onebay.

[docbubba]

Wow, you guys have the contacts! I have not been able to find a fuel tank for my 84. What are my options for repair? This bike sat for years, i put a battery and fuel in it and it stumbled and ran with throttle! Tank is rusty inside, and fuel line is broken now. Carbs are probably in tough shape. what is the interest in this bike for a project for a true vf500 believer? i have other bikes that need a little less work...
