Swap for a 750 with gear-driven timing?

Oh, you wanted constructive suggestions...LOL

Best thing to look out for when doing this type of job on the Honda VRF 800 vtec is a Honda tecnition sorry wills started it. But I would recomend being sure you need to do the job 1st. My son just took his bike in for cam chains he got a bill for £38.00 for 30 mins labour  chains in good condition work not required that was from a main dealer

Seriously, as Deb says , you can join the Honda Owners Club forum without being a full member of the club, and that might be a way forward. I'll have a quick look later.
