VFR CBR forks and swing arm awap

Hello this is my first post on the vfr forum well i have been trolling the forums for quite some time getting ideas and good usable info ...

well i have finally put my 86 vfr under the knife and gave it the face lift and a butt lift too haha it is bobbed about 14 inches off the rear end and now i am running 41mm forks off a mid 90's cbr as well as the brakes and wheel ... at least i think it came from a cbr haha same story with the swing arm im sure it is off cbr of some type ame thing brakes wheel shock ect... it all afit now it is just the wiring and lights and final touches i will be useing a 2012 r1 bakre light i got from a friend and im going to try and find an aftermarket enduro number plate/headlight to run up front

 

Welcome aboard. You have taken what some say was the purest of the vfr's and given it modern brakes and suspension, should be good.

 

Welcome aboard Viffer86, and thanks for the interesting post! I too have an '86 and it bothers me just to look at the wimpy 37 mil forks. What was Honda thinking?

Looking forward to hearing more on this upgrade...

 

Hopefully this was a 700 you hacked up?

 

yes i was a 700 however the all the parts i put on it came from a wrecked 750 which you can slighly see sitting next my subs in the garage it is just a engine frame and sub fram at this point siting on my garage floor ha i know tis sad but it is better than where i picked it up from it was just strape3d to a trailer in a back year since 98 motor isnt to bad it needs soem help thought
