Grab handle/bars

Sagi3 · 10-08-2009, 03:34 PM

Just put deposit down for a '98 vfr800 (my first proper bike) however it has no pillion grab bars. I am struggling to find any on the internet so was wondering if any of yourselves could help point me in the right direction.

Many thanks.

Shouldn't this be in the 5g forum?

Just kidding, welcome aboard and good luck with the grab rail search, you can try service honda, they might have some new.

if you have a seat cowl I will trade your seat cowl for my grab bars

Afraid not, and unfortunately for me the bike has a custom purple/black flip in it so doubt i'll ever be able to get one that looks good :(

You can order them new from Babbittsonline.com, Honda Part #s 5742341 and 5742333

They are $80 each.

Thanks for the replys folks, although does anyone know any UK suppliers as the shipping costs are astronomical?
