Hey Al,

If Naga's bike does get soiled, please, please, please take a picture and post it. I'd like proof that Naga's bike HAS been dirty at least once!

And, feed him lots of red wine - he is VERY funny then....................

Cheers, SB

(87) Mid fairing repair work - where left middle rear of fairing pops in to meet the rear
fairing - those two little knuckles were broken off - made a little L bracket - epoxied
to the mid point between where the two knuckles were - drilled a | in the rear in
same position - goes together now like peas & carrots

time for a little refreshment

Well fellow CBRers, The 1987/88 US New York Silver import CBR1000FK is safely on the bike work stand, secured and ready for the rebuild. There are a few bits missing - and I'll have to replace a few others with Aussie spec items for registration so shall start a new thread when things kick off.

We are off to the Riverland Field Days where I'll be working for the duration. Still should be able to manage a few wine tastings though.

See you in a few days!

Cheers, SB

SB he arrived like a knight on his white stallion , clean as the driven snow . I reckon he stopped around the corner to clean it before he came in my driveway !!! Naga was prepairing for an early start ( so was I (2am) so we went pretty easy on the plonk . I did however manage to get himto try some cruscavutz !!!
