Potential Buy? ? ? ? ?
 

[align=left]Hello All!
I'm new here, and am in search of some information or advice...
I'm found a good condition CBR1000F which I am considering
buying...
It has some minor scraps which I should be able to get sorted out,
but also a missing panel on the R/H side of the bike - the part which forms a
cover between the fairing lower and runs part way along the exhaust pipe -
forming a cowl of sorts.
I'm wondering how much difficulty I might have in sourcing that part - with it been an
old bike - It's a 1993 K plate (UK)
Thanks for any input offered!

Welcome to the Forum ! If you buy it, you'll need a manual.

Panel parts are fairly easily obtainable -which model is it, as the panels are different..?..:eek:

gill, that is awsome, to get a nice sound effect try drilling a 1/4 inch hole in one of those pipes , my old 350 had a rust hole in it , you could hear it coming a ile down the rode!!:D

Thanks for such quick replies everyone!
Here's some pics of my potential puchase:

One of these shows the missing "lower cowl" ...

Supposedly, the machine has covered 19,000 miles - but this can't be verified...
But the MCN review does give these bikes a glowing write up!

It's a 1993 K, as I said, but I'm not sure which specific incarnation it is? Any ideas?

Thanks for your help everyone! :-)

Nice looking bike mate. Welcome to the forum. Whereabouts on earth are you?
