I have a set of VFR forks from a 2007. Perhaps someone could use these for a front end swap or maybe someone is repairing a VFR. No leaks just a few scratches. Selling these for cheap. $60 plus shipping. Pm me with any questions. Sale includes the axle.

2007? Are these off a VFR1200? Anyway that's cheap as heck, wish I had something to put them on...

I call dibs, have no idea what I'll do with them but for $60 they can sit around till I figure it out...PM sent

Sale pending to Hrca#1. Honestly i am not sure, i pulled them from a scrap yard and they were tagged as a 2007 VFR Captain.

Sent email to Showa with numbers Motormouth gave me, we'll see what they come back with.

They look so much like the CBR1000RR forks.... hmmm

Ahh, 2007 VFR was 43mm Showa conventional. And there was only the 800 that year.

What every those forks are, they are not 2007 VFR800

NHSH

+1 2007 VFR800 actually had two models that year almost identical with the exception of different calipers and break pads at list to what I remember, the second was released a little later that year, but both models still had conventional forks as mentioned above!!!

NSHS the 2007 brake pads that were different were 2006+. the ABS pads are different - as you know I learned it the hard way ;-)

That is dirt cheap and I can attest that the VFR forks on my VFR feel better than on my 1998 SH. I wonder if it is just the age difference or if the VFR foorks are bettr stock

NHSH

Oh yea, it was 06 changed mid year, thanks for the correction.

Yeah, those are not VFR, it never had male slider or radial calipers. I was tricked into not looking at this thread since VFR riders use VTR forks as an upgrade. Ida bought em tho. Second dibs if not sold...

Heard back from American Showa (Showa Japan blew me off), they are for a 2008 CBR1000RR, also 2009, but first year for the MFL model is 08.

Sorry SmokinJoe but they are sold to me.
