    Hey Everyone
    After lurking for a few weeks, I just wanted to introduce myself. After a couple of years of Riding my V65 Magna, the wife wanted to get something. I was able to find a decent 84 VF500F on craigslist and we picked it up a couple of weeks ago.
    it's got 7000 miles and runs great, but it needs a few things. After searching here, I didn't really see what I was looking for so I figured I'd ask.
    I need both left and right handlebar switch assemblies and the front upper fairing. I've resigned myself to e-bay for the fairing, but there's not too much in the way of switches out there. I was curious to know if other models' switch assemblies can be used. Looks like a lot of great info here. Thanks.

    All Interceptors use the same switchgear, give or take. There were some variances from year to year, but you should be able to find what you need. I've got tons of spares but most are probably not worth putting on a 7000 mile bike. All of the good ones are on my bikes!
