VFR80025th Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Been looking for an 8th gen for a while but now I'm close. The dealer has seat height set in the low position and when I asked if they have the set collar with socket bolt to position the front portion of the seat in high position just behind the tank they said they don't have them. I called Partzilla and they have no listing for this part in the parts schematics. What do I do now? LOL Any suggestions? Does anybody have there VFR set in low position and would be willing to sell me the set collar and socket bolts behind the tank. I have the panniers (White) coming with the bike which I would be willing to sell at a killer price if someone is interested in doing a partial trade if you don't need the socket bolt and collar.

Alan553 Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 i'm sure you can create your own...the height is 20mm (.8"), maybe some rubber grommets along with multiple washers....the seat is also held up with the slot in the front of the saddle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VFR80025th Posted June 22, 2021 Author Share Posted June 22, 2021 I just talked to a parts guy in my area who was much sharper than the guy at Partzilla. He found the part. He found it in the frame schematic. I ordered it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VFR80025th Posted June 22, 2021 Author Share Posted June 22, 2021 Barring any complications I'm driving 2.5 hrs from Toronto to inspect, test ride a VFR which Im told is in mint condition. 2014 Deluxe with seat cowl and panniers. New Road 5s I regret selling my RWB put I'm pumped to get my white VFR 8th Gen. It will be good to be back in the pilot's Seat. Will post pics once I have the bike if all goes as expected.
