Hi folks, I just took ownership of a 93 that has 23k on the clock, pretty sound mechanics, but has been laid down on the right side. The PO replaced the stock exhaust system with a very nice full Vance and Hines after the mishap but the upper cowl and mid fairing got chunks taken out. I am tempted by the airtech replacements but intimidated about the painting side of things. I then started looking at the Chinese reproduction versions, but they seem to be avail in every color of the rainbow aside from the original red/white/blue. The red/black/white seems readily avail. Also anybody know where I can find decals. I am living in the NW Portland area but am from England originally. I buy lots of the Brit magazines where restoring these types of bikes is very popular and there are many small companies out there that specialize in this kinda stuff, but I am finding help here a bit limited.
Any help appreciated with any of the above.
Thanks
Daren

 

ebay my freind...
just make sure when you search you specify 93 cbr 900 and you should get mostly close to that year for a search query
and you never know you might get lucky and find some used parts (original) in good shape!!!
what every you do, dont rush into it, unless you dont mind wasting money, i would be patient..
