Hello All

I live in the London area, looking for something who can rebuild a 1983 VF 500 F2 rear shock. The shock is rebuild-able according to Honda manual but it requires special tools and I would rather someone else take a look at this bit. This part looks similar to this: https://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTYwMFgxMjAw/z/56QAAOSw8cNUSnMd/$_57.JPG

Edit - Also looking for Radiator Re-core.

Thank you, I have Emailed.

Also I'm looking at getting a radiator re-cored, anywhere that you recommend?

Aaron radiators in Thornton Heath have been there for decades, they will be able to recore your rad. Whether it will be affordable is a different question. I'm assuming you're considering a recore because your existing one is knackered, and you can't get them new. I would be looking for something similar and adapting the hoses to make it fit.

Likewise, you could rebuild the shock but a brand new Hagon is probably cheaper and better.
