Turn Signal tuck...

Honda sells 3 different lengths of mounting stalks, 23mm, 34mm. and 47mm (what you probably have).

Also available through Dennis Kirk @ $10 each

 

Do you know the OEM part number for the 23mm stay? Thx!

 

I need to pickup a stem and a light assy to replace one of mine. I bolted up one from my Ninja 250 for the time being.

 

I think the part is listed as front turn signal mount for all years VF 500.


EDIT: see post #6 below.

No problem ordering from Dennis Kirk,,,,,part # 21-494

 

you can also save your money and cut the "dumbo" ears down. this was my only option to have front turn signals , being a broke ass student and all. reattaching then is kind of fun. since when I cut thenm the mounting bolt went with it I took a self tapping screw. and ran it in. n I thought the arm was all plastic at first but there is a metal plate, which is cool because it gives the screw a better hold

 

There used to be an error on the Honda microfische for the Vf500F. They had the front and rear winker stay part #'s swapped. Ordering the front short one got you the long-ass rear one. (I worked at a Honda/Yamaha dealer for 12 years)
The last time I checked (a while ago), the error was still there.

Also, the OEM Honda stays have a full metal inner. The last aftermarket ones I got (for my wife's CB-1) did not. They mount just fine and look identical, but they bounce around a lot.

Thank you for the post. The OEM metal core sounds like the way to go. I'll keep an eye out on eBay for a used set.

 

I ran into that on the VFR700 and the fische was wrong for some aftermarket ones allso, I guess they copied Honda part numbers.
