i cleaned the chain today thats after 2 days of putting wd40 on it to loosen it up it had gone a bit stiff

 

Thrashed her around the lanes again this evening , what a perfect evening! Not too hot and sticky , but nice hot sticky tarmac , lots of grip in the curves , but noticed a squeak that will need investigation . Think it may be coming from the front end so maybe wheel bearings , might finally find what's causing her to shake her head!

So guess what I'll be doing tomorrow

 

Hi guys, haven't been on in awhile. Since everyone seems 2b talkin about wat's been done to their Cbr & mostly answering back with going for a ride. Thought I'd throw in my 2 cents worth. Finally took my '91 out after weeks of sitten under the cover for a 45 minute semi quick ride. Been too long seemed like, between working & being sick for the past week. Gotta say felt quite refreshing to get her up to 175 mph on the speedo & then ease it on down & just cruise for a bit. Before anyone jumps the gun about 175 on a ol '91 Cbr 1000 yes the rear sproket is oversized. So even tho the speedo reads 175 it off a bit. lol! Also only showed 9800 on tach & I still had a tiny bit of trottle left. Had to get off the trottle was running outta room quickly. So all in all even if even tho it wasn't a very long ride it did feel good 2b back in the saddle again. Gonna try a longer ride next weekend(weather permitting) its long overdue. Sure wished they had more older Cbr1000f's around to ride with. Oh well! Later guys!
