im getting this bike tomorrow because i wanted to try and restore it from the looks of it its gonna need some work but what do you guys think is it worth it?
the guy told me he thinks its a 94

1990's Honda CBR 1000

 

About 100 bucks an it ain't a 1994 CBR 1000F not a CBR at all in fact it's most likely a CB1000

 

Hey:

I agree with Sprocks observation, it is a 94 or 95 CB1000F, no resto unless he has the title, or knows the previous owner and can get it, otherwise a title search fee and hassle is going to happen. I'd pass, as it looks pretty tweeked and parts are not plentiful for those. Unless you buy it to part out, then maybe you can make some money on it. Offer $200 or you may not break even right away. I may be interested in some of the parts if cheap enough.

LOL , knew I'd have to get this one right DUB , expected you'd be right along

But hey a good project bike nonetheless if the price was right !

 

Good call there Sprock and Dub - and it'll never be a 1000F
The clocks are wrong, tank's wrong. - from a nekkid bike I think. I've never seen a CB1000 up close, sooooo Lookit the length of the silencers !!!
Could be buying a world of hurt, there.
I'd keep looking, for a real 1000F and as the "Rebel" says there may be other issues like paperwork which are not fixable.

 

Yea cbr1988 I'm finding out about the title issues now! Haha 94hurricane don't waste your time or money bro...

 

Good call, Kerri. I kinda agree with dropping the restoration idea. (unless you know a lot about bikes.... and you have some time to really look it over)
The only other thing I would do is research what spare CB parts are going for... and then decide if it's worth offering a hundred or two. Then if it's not an easy restore.. just part it out and make a few bucks.

 

If you could get the engine going, that would make the basis for the most amazing lawnmower to tidy up that grass with.

 

keep the picture leave the bike were it is
