VF1000RF 1985 Euro spec - with oil cooler. The "anus" exhaust is to be replaced by NOS mufflers and near perfect collector box. [IMG]...
Trying to get all the bits together for the 85 VF1000RF rebuild. Whole bunch of NOS bits arrived (top and bottom fairings, mufflers, indicators,...
What state?
I meant the bush around where the pivot bolt goes rather than the push rod. Honda levers have a bronze bush for durability and most aftermarket...

Donald? Any help from your experiences with these gear drives would be appreciated.
Rangerscott and tinker, all the normal brands of bearings are available but the difficulty is the sizing of the needle roller. I only use Japanese...
The micro fische sheets only show an assembly and not any seperate parts available. I only know the bearing sizes as I picked up a box of parts...
