VF1000 wanted for spares - chch south Island NZ

I’ve got an ol’ dunger I’m doing up and could do with heaps of bits..
If you’ve got 1 my way 4 cheap- I’m interested..
cheers

Put some photos up could help

here’s a pic of it before I took it apart- rare brown 1 ! -I’m nr chch
looking for so far - fuel pump, switch gear both sides, 4 into 1 and numerous small broken bits.. or possibly whatever anyone has to get rid of.. or whole 1 ..
carbs in bits at the mo- cooling bits coming off next… very keen to get it back on the road!

SWitchgear is common on other models.
Simon at Good parts in the south island is wreaking one

thanks yes I’ve seen him on trademe..cheers

Hi @trex how’s your rebuild going?
You said you were looking for a 4 into 1 exhaust.
Good luck with finding one, they were rare back in the 80s and 90s and rare as hens teeth nowadays.
Over the years I have managed to get hold of a Stainless steel Tranzac lightweight collector box, and a Lazer brand stainless 4-1 from the Nederland. It’s probably worth more than the bike it’s currently on!
Put word out for whatever you need and keep looking!

Hiya, thanks 4 the thought- I’m 1/2 way through the gummed up f brakes.. no where nr as bad as yours! but need doing.. carbs still in bits- nothing major apart from time there cleaning all the glue someone used on the bowls and blocked jets. Bit of movement in the head race so’ll try and tighten before buying new bearings- should pull it apart really. I’ll have to replace a tyre valve- it’s perished- that’ll b easy and look at rear shock links/pins for greasing
the 4into1 would b a nice to have and all about looks really.. any pics of yours? I could fab 1 up - in theory anyway- ha.
