Welcome to the forum Gazz.
There are a few canes near you. The forum has been quiet for a while now, maybe it'll pick up and the boys from down under will pop in again.

 

Thanks for the welcome, I see a couple scattered across the country for sale be rarely see one on the road.
As a family we have quite a few bikes ranging from the rr to my old girl the ft as well as a scatter of cb's including doing ground up builds on 2 old 750/4's especially for my two sons

 

Hi guys & girls,

Just popped in to say hello and to warn you all I'll have lots of questions cos I've got to know

This is a very brief introduction I wrote before realising there was an intro thread - probably why I didn't do very well at school

G'day Gazz & pete , welcome to the forum . Lots of great info and helpful minds here . The beauty of these old girls is that no matter what problem you come across , someone else has had it and fixed it .

 

Hey fella's Greg here and I live in the Hunter Valley region of NSW. My CBR is an 1987 F1000, Magenta and White in extremely great condition, coming up to 100,000 kilometers on the clock. I get many comments about her when we go for a ride. Wife actually enjoys being on the back as it is so comfy. Interested to get together if you guys are ever in the area.

 

Hi Greg and ozzyal
Old bikes never lose their ability to attract head turns and comments.
We're up in Toowoomba so I guess your copping the cold snap at the moment as well.
Would be great to get a bit of a revival going and head towards an annual catch up or something along those lines.
One of my bikes is a 1996 cbr1000ft and that's pretty much the favourite and number one son has a few as well but his baby is a 2004 cbr1000rr. It's great going for a ride but way better when it's with family.

 

Yes mate , -1c this morning . Currently 4c . Very fresh . Still can here some brave souls riding past my place today .

 

Hi this is my first post. I signed up a few weeks ago and haven't been able to post. I emailed the administrator a couple times but gave up as I didn't want to seem pesky, lol.
This morning I decided to give it a shot again and looks like I can now post
Anyways, I am from St. Louis, MO USA. I owned a 90 CBR 1000f about 10 years ago. Loved it, but had to let it go. I just recently bought another. Same year and colors, and feel like I just got reacquainted with my first love, lol.
I have already done a couple things to it. Most recent was the stick coil mods. I was able to follow the procedure from the sticky on this site.
I have a couple questions I'll get on with this evening in the appropriate section. I will also post a couple pics of her also.
Glad to be here!

 

Welcome to the forum guys from above posts.

Seam a bit funny how these old 2-wheeled beast are still around for purchase.....and some of you folks are picking colors.

 

Welcome to the forum, nothing quite like getting reacquainted with an old friend.
