    A. They will not fit immediately. You need adapters that go from VFR to CBR.

    B. Somebody over at VFRD already has. Go over there and ask.

    They look good. They DO NOT improve rear vision.

    I'm wanting to improve the looks of the bike and make it more visible by more lights. I want to set up the mirrors as running lights.

    I know people using GSXR mirror (With blinker) and they work fine on the 3rd and 5th gen.
    Which gen did you end up getting?

    I too have also read up on the usage of the GSXR mirrors on the 4th Gen VFR. I want to use the CBR 1000RR mirrors because I want to keep it all HONDA. I have decided to purchase a 1997 VFR with 25K miles on the clock for $3300. It's a two owner VFR and the owner just performed a oil change, put new tires front and rear, new front brake pads and installed Galfer front brake lines. All fluids and filters have been changed as well but the part on the bike I will like the best is the D&D carbon slip on, it sounds great. I pick up this gem this coming Monday, pics will follow soon.

    At 25k you're going to need a new chain and sprockets (if the original chain hasn't been replaced) at about $180 and at around 30k possibly new headset bearings so budget for those.

    BTW, Honda does not make the mirrors, turn indicators, fuel pump, voltage regulator, stator, headlight, wheels and a whole list of other small parts, mostly electrical.
