Veefer800Canuck Posted September 26, 2014 Author Share Posted September 26, 2014 Not a 6th gen tail. It's the 5th gen with a custom exhaust. The only 6th gen part on the bike is the gas tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer Dutchy Posted September 26, 2014 Member Contributer Share Posted September 26, 2014 Good that you asked..... cos with the oem bolts out I could measure the washer... 18.7mm (and not the <17mm reported but that may be not those on a 4th gen) so.................... I *could have* bought the blue 19mmPro-bolts... I was cautious for nothing... :-( the black ones I bought are as specified, 18mm and I put an 18mm SS washer underneath  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer Dutchy Posted September 26, 2014 Member Contributer Share Posted September 26, 2014 No I am not saying that I assumed (the mother of all fuck ups I know) that what was posted earleir: "Washer OD is ~16.67-16.7mm. OEM bolts on a '99 5th gen." would apply to my 4th gen (1997 VFR750). But that was wrong.... But how wrong I will find out cos the 18mm washers are on now and I am riding my bike tomorrow If I see anything going pear shaped I will post up and fit a 19mm SS washer underneath.

erbilabuc Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 I contacted sebspeed but could not wait any longer so I went ahead and did it myself by butchering a hayabusa window off ebay. My cover was cracked and the little plate on the inside was half rotted so it needed to be done. Im moving from Hawaii to NC soon so I have to break it back down to powder coat the frame and when I do that I will also do a rotor window.

That is what I ended up with (got red ones as well) since the black washers looked a bit mheh.... Got rid of the M3 washers for the outer ring as well; got some smaller, black M3 countersunk washers. Kept the SS rings between top of spring and blue washers Ready to go all the way in! The bolts that affix the entite cover to the engine were a bit poor; one hole actually a bit worn so I needed a longer bolt anyway. Got some SS ones, put some anti-seize on for good measure small video clip http://vid113.photobucket.com/albums/n206/Dutchy_748/VIDEO0012_zpsxznsno71.mp4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer Polarbear Posted October 24, 2014 Member Contributer Share Posted October 24, 2014 Link not working for me either, error message says the file is corrupt. Contrary to MaxSwell, I cannot live without seeing this video! But I did see your bike in person, so maybe I can survive... but it will be tough!!

Member Contributer Dutchy Posted October 25, 2014 Member Contributer Share Posted October 25, 2014 The colored washers I found on http://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/6256608014.html the m3 black washers at hobbyking.com the SS 18mm flat washers M3 and M6 torx at a Dutch oline retailer that sells per piece https://www.rvspaleis.nl/ No doubt a US-based shop will have them too!
