Lovely sound but a bit too thrashy, I like a deep bark for an exhaust. Well done.

Agreed! However, hearing it "live" is a hoot! Unfortunately certain sound elements are lost in recordings... REALLY sounds sweet between 5k & 6k RPM. Thanks!

The white rims bring it up to date, other details subtle - well done

CBR1000F 94' Over 80% Cosmetic makeover...Finished! Ya first heard it at stand still in a open field... Now hear it during Summer 2017 Night run. With drilled pipes and pierce baffle. Sounds rreally good! BUT sounds even better LIVE! Plus 3 to 4hp gain. However we do it FOR THE SOUND!!! Tool kit popped open in bag with camera!

Sounds good for such a simple mod. Especially at open throttle

lovinmycbr1000f94 02-15-2018 05:51 PM

Thank you! Hearing it LIVE is something else... However, quite civil at lower revs.

Couple more pics summer 2017

Nice, I have a '94 with the same grips.

thebeard 07-19-2018 10:33 PM

Wow
 
That's a clean bike! I'll have to get some photos of mine once I get the new R/R on her. Seeing yours makes me want to bust out the buffer before the photoshoot!

94 Restoration
 
Great Job there, so glad you had the stuff and determination to finish it. Very original, maybe in the future you would consider getting rid of the heavy old twin cans and hardware, will save you about 30 lbs. or more. I think you would like the sound and looks of the Vance & Hines 4 into 1 SS2R setup I have one on my 95, only my opinion, again great job!!!!

lovinmycbr1000f94 10-17-2018 11:47 PM

Thanks Gary!!! Was VERY determined to finish that project! Took 4 months. I was actually disappointed with the sound that came out of the SS2R hence the drilled holes... In hindsight It probably sounds a whole lot better live that on Youtube, just MHO. Unfortunately I was "taken out" in a hit and run! Guy never stopped!!! Bike is ruined! AND don't have the heart to fix it... NOW. With that said I've moved on to the next "Beast!" CBR1100XX! OMG!! What a monster compared to the 1000F! (2000 EFI, 30K) Will post pics soon! Yet again will do a MAJOR 100% COSMETIC MAKEOVER on the Blackbird that promises to be SWEET!!! Stay tuned!!

lovinmycbr1000f94 03-25-2019 01:32 PM

Update! For those who are interested to see "The New Monster" Before pics go to CBR1100xx "Super Blackbird" catagory and look up "CBR1100XX 00' 100% Cosmetic makeover... BEFORE!" Enjoy!

Hello fellow fighter pilots! Just a side note. I have no mechanical background as such. However use to be a Mechanical/Civil Engineering draftsmen and also immensely enjoyed R/C airplanes since I was teen(Was also in Air Cadets and later became an Officer...). So working with model planes wrapping them with paper or monoque plastic,detailing etc. Playing with small engines such as Cox, O.S. max and other small 49cc engines... I also do carpentry work. So years of this has all come together for both my ol CBR10000F94 and now The New Monster projects. "CBR1100XX 00' 100% Cosmetic makeover... BEFORE!"
