Yup

 

Pre-set up, still waiting on water proof connectors and rubber gaskets.

 

Yep that the type of thing I was thinkIng of cheers guy

 

This week has been a mixed blessing - finally solved the locked brake problem (blocked rear master cylinder) which lead to a fluid change (first time since 1996) and a strip and rebuild of the clutch master cylinder and actuator.

I bought a set of stainless steel fasteners for the bike around 2006 and have slowly been replacing them as I've had to take things apart, so it got a few more "shiny bits" and a bunch of black oxide bolts ended up in the spares bin.

Finally realized that the clutch and brake levers are the same as on a VFR750 - why is that important? The Clutch is adjustable on the VFR and not on the CBR - so ordered a couple of nice aluminium replacement levers - now the clutch is rebuilt, it's "snappy" and far too far away.

Had a flat battery again, which is probably due to leaving the decade-old Garmin plugged in, but checked the regulator just in case as it seems to be a common problem - seems fine, 1 ohm or so between coils on the stator, 60+ volts, and battery voltage rising with RPM.

Also picked up rebuild kits for the rear master cylinder and front brake cylinder, along with a set of replacement idle jets which I have had to clear out a dozen times in the last decade. I'll get to them in a few weeks time.

So, bike now working again, idle is a little rough but nothing to worry about, and the brakes work properly.
