Default A sad, sad day 1988 1000f RIP

Hi everyone, it has been a long time since I have posted. I thought my starter was fried and learned it was stater/alternator chain. I got a 2008 Hayabusa after this challenge, so I am not going to try and fix it. I just listed it as a parts bike in the for sale section, it may take a little while for it to pop up. Thank you to you all for your help over the years, I am confident this forum has improved my riding and saved me lots of $$$. I created a website if you want to see some pics.

Shame to see the CBR cast off but the busa is a good machine. Also it highlights what a difference 20 years can make between bikes.

NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously though, you gotta do what you gotta do. You never know she may help some other owner bring their 'old girl' back to life. Never good to see one broken up, but she'll live on as parts to keep others going and if she's listed here, they'll all go to good homes.

Enjoy the Busa! Quite a tribute to the old girl that she gets replaced by a modern hyperbike!

What a sad day to have to part out that beautiful bike. But hopefully she will live on on others.




Sent you an email and pm. I am interested in the seat and tail lite.

Sad to see that another one of these beautiful bike dying. Especially that it was a beautiful one, ewspecially that it is almost a twin colorwise.


Are you parting the bike?

if yes I am interested in top fairing and side panel.
