    Followed up on a Craigslist ad yesterday for "miscellaneous" '85 VF500F parts. I wound up buying the carb set and a pair of Cobra F1R slip-ons. The carb set is missing the plastic fuel joint pipe that goes between the left and right pairs of carbs and the threaded boss that holds the retaining screw for securing #1 and #4 carb bodies together is partially broken (you can see it in the photo) and two of the synchroniztion springs are missing. Otherwise, the set looks pretty good. The F1Rs are in very good condition, 1 very small dent in the left one and the decals are missing. Since I cannot find any ID #s on the mufflers, I cannot be certain that they are actually for the 500F. They are about 4" shorter than the F1s on my 500 but look like they would bolt up. I don't plan on using either the carbs or the mufflers, so if anyone is interested, they are available.

    $150, you pay shipping, I'll clean them up and buff them. I'm near Cincinnati, approx. 150 mi. from Lancaster, if you want to take a long ride you can pick them up, I might even help you with an on-the-spot install. Do you have original stock mufflers that you want to do a trade deal on?
