    he is a hard guy to get ahold of but i finally got mine from him and they are top notch. they fit perfect. stay far far away from spec II. i bought a piece from him and it didn't even look like it was to my bike. lesson learned. the wait is worth it. you just have to be persistent

    he might as well not have that site at all, really, as it hasnt been maintained for years and most of the prices listed are outdated anyways. the best option is to give him a call and leave a message with his wife. every time ive done this, i always got a return call. sometimes, you just have to be diligent about reaching him.

    VFR body work on ebay.

    Just a heads up for those looking for VFR body panels. I've seen an unusual amount of body parts out there for sale in the last few days. Compared to the amount I've seen in the past, it's almost a flood. I did a search on VFR 700 and went to the "advanced" search to select the ebay stores option as well.

    This seems related, even though it's not a body panel resource.
    I ordered a set of decals from cbdecals.com the other day, the came in. They were shipped from Canada from a placed called Mach9 Technologies.

    Had I known this information before I ordered from CBdecals.com, I would have contacted these guys directly, maybe I could have picked them up cheaper than the $219 price at CB? These guys are obviously their supplier, so...go directly to the source? The decals came with instructions, the instructions have an AFE Graphics brand name. When you go to their web site, they don't list any products for an 87 VFR. Copyright issues with Honda?

    Anyway...for those of you who might want to try in the future, here is their information:
    Mach9 Technologies Inc.
    70 St. Mary's Rd.
    Bethany, ON L0A-1A0
    Canada
    Tel:705-277-9869 Fax:705-277-9015

    Just took delivery of a Fiberglass Gas tank from VFRChuck.

    I'm working on finishing my electric conversion project and I didn't want the gas tank glued together. He happily sold me a tank, unglued bottom/top ready to mount with gelcoat finish for a very reasonable price. Needs sanding before finishing, but its great work and I'm very happy with the results and his flexibility in selling me an unfinished tank.

    I've bought a rear fairing/front fender and solo tail cover from him, all great products.

    anybody know where I can find the brackets that the tail end of the front fairings attach to? mine rusted out and broke... I'll be ordering new plastics from airtech, but the dont have the bracketry...

    (for clarification, I'm referring to the metal tabs on the lower portion of the fairings, down by the footpegs)

    yeah, just go to Chuck Crites @ Cobalt Racing for those...mine were pretty messed up and Chuck sells his at a pretty reasonable price and they look and function FAR better than the original.

    Be ready to wait if you do contact him, it has been a year and six months and I still have not received my complete fairing set yet.
