SapperMedic Posted November 23, 2008 #3 Posted November 23, 2008 I think I bought the same set for my 86 VR and they fit great. Same company though http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220288328853&viewitem=
SapperMedic Posted November 23, 2008 #4 Posted November 23, 2008 make sure you ask for black unless you really like yellow,
Guest ReinyRooster Posted November 23, 2008 #5 Posted November 23, 2008 O.K. guys, thanks for the qwuick answers. I'll go get a set.

This is where I got mine.They do make 2 different sets,1 for the 1200 and one for the 1300...You will want the one for the 1300 because the 1200 set has 4 angled caps and the 1300 has 2 straight and 2 angled caps. I know this because they sent me the wrong set and then they sent me the right set when they realized the mistake. So imagine my surprise when I got home from a run and had 2 sets of wires at the house. They sent me a e-mail to explain and they told me to keep both sets as it was their fault.They told my the sets are interchangable,but the 1300 set is easier to install on a 1300 then the 1200 set.Can't say for sure,as I still haven't got mine on yet....
Squidley Posted November 23, 2008 #7 Posted November 23, 2008 Rooster, I have bought from that ebayer before and he sells them for all the Ventures. Just email him and I'm sure that he'll have everything you want. There isn't a difference in the wires, perhaps in the caps as far as the shape of them.
Guest ReinyRooster Posted November 24, 2008 #8 Posted November 24, 2008 Brad, that's where the problem started. He had a set for the 1300, but when I went to buy them, I couldn't because I was north of the border. Emailed him to try and clarify that I had a U.S. address to ship to.....poor communication...ended up missing the deadline. I bought the set for the 1200 today while I was down in the U.S. visiting my cousin. If they don't work, I'll just sell them and look around some more.
