    My 86 vf 500 went down Sunday aft. My girlfriend hit a pothole and went down . she took it worse than the bike. Broken ankle and her glove split and some rash on the nuckles . but in good sports and will ride again next year. I have most parts to get it fixed up, I was going repaint this winter anyhow but I now need the upper faring and front fender. I do have a spare tank I might be willing to barder with but will pay cash also. Thanks mike.

    Buying good replacements will be very difficult and expensive.

    Why do that when all your fairings pieces can be easily fixed?

    Check out Wisconsin Cycle Salvage in Neenah. They almost always have a couple of these listed on eBay, and you may be close enough to pick it up and save the bulky item shipping.

    This is not an advertisement; I don't think I've ever bought anything from them.

    Sorry about your girl friend hope she heals quick. You can also go over here: http://v4hondabbs.com/ and ask around. A few guys have parts 500's. Might be able to find the upper cowl.
