Hi Keith,
I put new window switches in the the vs for show and the windows go up faster beleave it or not. I think you should try to clean up all the connections first and see what happens. Sorry don`t know about newer motors.

also spray the guide rails with silicone spray
and make sure the glass is aligned properly

Hi Keith,
Guys at work told me about this place don`t know too much you will have to ring them.

Or Rare Spares. If they can help you with parts get the Part Numbers and Prices for me and I can get them cheaper.
I can get them delivered to the honda dealer for you at Yamanto . And you can pick them up.

usually it's buggered window channel rubbers that cause the windows to lift slowly.

But if it is the motor, I believe you can fit the entire window regulator & motor out of a VN-VS.
I'm fairly sure frost_vk has fit them to his VK
