About the Honda VF1100S V65 Sabre
Carburetor, clutch and brake parts for the 1984–1985 V65 Sabre.
The V65 Sabre combines a liquid-cooled V4, shaft drive and hydraulic clutch operation with an upright road-bike layout. Its single rear shock is one visible difference from the Magna’s twin-shock cruiser layout. Use VF1100S when selecting service parts: a shared V65 engine family does not make the two motorcycles’ chassis equipment interchangeable.
Which part of the clutch needs attention?
The Sabre clutch slave cylinder repair kit serves the hydraulic release assembly. The steel clutch plate belongs inside the clutch stack. Identifying the affected assembly makes the parts order useful: hydraulic seals and internal plates perform different jobs.

Identify your motorcycle before orderingVF1100S model and identification checklist
Keep the model year with the component identity. Changes to handlebar controls or carburetors can alter the service parts required.
| Model or component | Year or identification | Check before ordering |
|---|---|---|
| Model | VF1100S V65 Sabre | Keep Magna and smaller Sabre applications separate. |
| Year | 1984 or 1985 | Check the narrower front master cylinder application. |
| Carburetor bank | Markings and bowl gasket profile | Identify replacement banks independently. |
| Clutch | Hydraulic slave or internal plate stack | Choose the repair parts for the affected assembly. |
