VFR800 Grab handle

Picking up a 1998 VFR tomorrow but it hasn't got a grab handle. don't suppose anyone's got one spare or knows where I can get one?

 

Ebay?

 

Nothing on Ebay at the moment. Strange but true something isn't for sale on Ebay, which was why I asked, because I don't know what to do now!

 

If you absolutely have to have one, I could maybe get you summat welded up outta stainless tube ?

 

Thanks for the offer, but I can wait til one turns up. Or probably get a rack shortly, which should solve the problem.

 

Dont know what model you have but "vfr grab" gives 14 results

 

None for my particular model, except from States, which I'll keep an eye on. wondering if it's worth it as I'll probably put a rack on when I can afford it. Might be a while!

 

If it's for a regular passenger, I have some Love Handles that you can borrow? You wear them as a belt and the passenger holds the handles?

 

I was thinking of those. I might buy a set for the time being. Picking the bike up from Chatham (coming back to Deal) after work today, and my son will want to ride pillion on the way back, but he'll just have to hold on to me for now! i do ride with a pillion often so will need to do something.

 

And I thought you just wore yours under your jacket.

 

That took you 4 hours and 32 mins Les, you are slackin

 

Yeah, been in a classroom all morning.

 

Charm school ?

 

I've got a pair you can have. I've got the seat hump so they don't get used!!!

 

Steve, I'll take you up on that, can you give me a price and location please?
Slight delay in picking up the bike, seller phoned me yesterday to say the fuel gauge hadn't worked when he started it up so he'd put it in a shop to get sorted. Not really a problem, shame not to have the bike for today but better to have everything right. Many people would have waited til I turned up to tell me and sold it as it was.
