    Putting my carbs back together again and I need to get my hands on four float valve filters for an 86' vf500. Problem is, the only way I've found of getting them is buying four full float valve sets that are around $50 each, and haven't found anything else. Let me know where to find some, or if you are selling some.

    Looked at them already and they don't match the 86 filters unfortunately. Thanks though.

    The filters come in the Honda seal kits. I just bought kits for my 700, they ran about $35 a kit.

    I'm pretty sure the filters are the same across the line: VF/VFR, 1983-1997. :wink:

    I bought the kits at my local Honda dealership. Each kit comes with the filter, bowl gasket, fuel and vent pipe O-rings, and pilot screw o-ring.
