I've been looking for a long time for one. I've seen a couple of them pop up on the UK side of EBay. That's probably going to be your best bet. I...
Well, I checked the plugs, they need to be changed, but I think the main issue was the battery. Yes it was dumb to overlook that, but I had...
Ah, I see, well I've ridden almost every day since about March, I emptied it before I let it sit over the winter. It's my main means of...
Thanks Squirrelman, I will check all of that tomorrow afternoon. How fast do carbs foul/gum up/whatever you want to call it though? They were...
This began about 2 weeks ago, the bike will crank, but won't start. It is getting fuel (you can smell it) and the kill switch is on. It started...
I'm gonna assume you mean clip-ons? I've seen people use clip-ons from a CBR600F Hurricane. That's what I'm going to do. I believe you will need...
Tinman, I know it's not a 750, but we just threw a set of stubby cans on my 500. They from here: Megs Exhaust Warehouse-Exhaust Systems, Exhaust...
Thank you sir!
Great looking bike Captain. Kinda jealous that mine is so stock looking. I know you said the rear is a race fairing, was it made for the 500? It...

Another update: Spoke to Jamie on the phone yesterday, paid for my wheel conversion stuff. Hopefully I'll see that soon. Received my...
Apparently Sprocket Specialists will custom make sprockets, I found what I needed for a 530 though.
Thanks for all the help guys, I ordered a DID chain and and steel sprockets. Should be here next week.
Ok, that part I did figure out. I will double check on the number of links though. I'm assuming they can help with the sprockets as well?
I appreciate it Rollin, I did go to sprocket center, but they don't have a listing for the VF500. That's the issue I keep having, I can find all...
I need a new chain and sprockets for my '85 VF500F. I know the factory chain is a 530, I was told by a coworker to go with a 520 chain and...
He is, he responded to my email despite being on vacation. Was not expecting that one. I'm not doing anything to collector box or before, I...
I guess I should revive this. I finally sent out my parts to Jamie. Should be getting the stuff for the wheel conversion soon. Also I'll be do...
I ride mine almost daily, haven't had any major issues, other than what you'd expect from a 30 year old bike.
Looks good man. And yes, what risgett said.....
