    Carburetors for 1986 Honda VFR Interceptor

    Rebuilding a 1986 Honda VFR. (Watch out P-89, here we come!) 3 of the 4 carbs are salvageable, but one is broken. Looking for the housing. Building this bike on the cheap, so no HRC spec carburetors from 1986. I saw one for $1990 on ebay! Thanks and much appreciated. -Mike

    You have my sympathy!

    I hated working on my VF1000R (same year, I think). It was miserable. Took me days to get the carbs to seat in their boots.

    Edit: forgot the silly font coding. Sorry 'bout that.

    Thanks for the advice. Checking out the sites now. Wish me luck. If it doesn't work out you'll see a parts bike for sale by Spring.
