I'm fixing up a VF500 that was in a very sad state. The engine needs to be rebuilt and I need to buy a complete gasket. There seems to be some confusion as to whether there is a difference between the '85 and'86 engine and I was wondering if somebody on here could clear that up for me.
I will confirm 100% true, the engine for the VF500F was the same for the 84, 85, and 86, and was also the same engine used for the 84 and 85 Magna V30; Engine Four-stroke, 90 degree V4 (V-four) Liquid cooled, dual overhead chain drive camshafts 32mm CV Carburetors Four valves per cylinder Bore and stroke - 60x44 mm Compression ratio 11.0:1 Oil capacity 3.2 quarts 12,000 rpm redline Six-speed transmission, wet clutch Automatic cam-chain tensioners Self-adjusting hydraulic clutch
