rvf vfr subframe

Post by domski1 »

quick question , are the subframes different on the vfr & rvf's? and also is the plastic undertray / mudguard different? i have just bought anouther rear light to replace the broken one on my bike and from what i can make out the one that i took off has been butchered/ modified to fit and i can't see anyway of fixing the new one on? this is a picture of the one i have bought and i can't see anywhere for the brackets to mount, any idea's anyone?

the ones in the pic are RVF lights

the gold coloured arms should be screwed into the rear fairings. there is an area where these screw in. the long arm sections should be facing sideways rather than downwards...
if you move them to their correct position and put the light in, you should be able to see where they secure to the inside of the fairings

Subframes are different

the plastic undertray/seat / mudguard share the same part number,

the lights on an RVF are not the Same as the VFR.

pics of both would be good :)
