    Hello.
    I've seen several pics of the first gen. VFR with second gen. VFR or CBR F2/3 front ends and rear wheels. Here are my ?'s:
    How extenisve is it to do the front end swap? '93 on '86
    Will a CBR 600 F2/3 rear wheel fit in a '86 VFR 700 swing arm with no mods?
    I'm sure hoping so. This would open up a bunch more possibilities for tires, not to mention the improved braking.
    Any help at all would be greatly appreciated!!!

    http://www.one-ring.net/vfrfaq/WheelFAQ.htm Kevin, this link gives the details on how to do the swap. I have done two 1st gen VFR conversions as well as the same upgrade to a 750 Nighthawk. BTW, I have a complete F2 front end and rear wheel with brakes; will sell as a package for the upgrade for $500.00
