About the Honda VT800
Use the VT800 family page to reach the right 1988 service application.
This collection brings together products labelled VT800 and VT800C. It helps owners find the Honda Shadow service parts they need while keeping the complete application visible. Once you have identified the motorcycle, use its model page and year filter to focus the search.
Follow the model label into the repair
The featured carburetor kit and rear brake shoes list VT800C 1988. The fork oil-seal set lists VT800 1988. Use the C-model page for its dedicated carburetor, dust-seal and rear-drum examples, and confirm a different product label before treating it as equivalent.

VT800 fork oil seals
The featured set lists VT800 1988 and measures 39 × 52 × 11 mm. Confirm the C-model application separately if ordering for VT800C.
VT800C Shadow repairs
The linked C-model page focuses on carburetor kits, fork dust seals and rear brake shoes with VT800C 1988 applications.
Modified assemblies
A replacement front end or carburetor needs its own identification. Compare the donor assembly and removed service parts with the product details.
Identify your motorcycle before orderingVT800 identification & fitment checks
- Record the full frame designation and model year, keeping any C suffix in the search.
- Identify the fitted carburetor or fork assembly if it has been replaced during the motorcycle’s life.
- For rear brake shoes, confirm the drum-brake application and shoe dimensions rather than comparing them with disc pads.
