I waited until the 15th year before deciding to refurbish the old VFR, and now I'm being told that the bodywork is no longer available in Canada! Does anyone know if the silver '96 stuff is still available anywhere else????? I could paint the old stuff but I really wanted factory pieces if I can get my hands on them.

Anyone?????

David Silver Spares in the UK, for one. CMS in Holland. Bike-parts.fr in France. Enquire with all of them--not sure which would have the best prices for you (considering exchange rates and shipping). Only after doing that and coming up empty are you totally screwed... :biggrin:

Ciao,

Ciao,

Thanks fellas. I'm not too sure about BIke Bandit as the silver wasn't sold in the states but I'll give them a check. If I can't find it there I I'll follow your list and see what turns up.

Don't think silver was sold in Europa either; Douglasthecook sourced his silver bodywork from Canada I think....



:huh:

This is true, I did source my silver plastics from a shop in London, Ontario if I remember right. If you want me to look them up, I can...
