Default Finally a real bike

Finally past my test a few weeks ago sold my Varadero 125 and invested my money in a real bike , and i have to say its the best thing i done in a long time its a 89 CBR , and i have to say im riding it as often as i can weekends with the boys and weekdays after workwith the wife, keeps us both happy its had new plastics fitted at sometime 92 coloursif im not mistaken as the past owner didnt like the blue .. i aint complaining its like new, apart from a chain rattle first thing in the morning till it warms up its in great shape, new conti road attack rubber on the wheels , and a full pannier set and tank bag + a ton of extras from the seller , i even got the past 14 mot cert's with it so i can see how much its been used over the years, been reading the forums for a while and i thought it was about time i said hello [sm=shades.gif].

Here she is? i think its a she is there a way of telling ? lol
