anyone know were i can buy a new head light for my 96 blade at? i cant seem to find one anywere.

 

i would do a search on ebay and save it, then they will send you an email every time someone post a highlight in that section...
thats the best thing i can say, otherwise keep checking craigslist..you might get lucky..
or buy race plastics and custom fit a headlight..

 

thanks for the advice

 

how lucky are you,, i found one and its only eighty bucks..
CBR900RR CBR900 RR CBR 900 96 97 Headlight Head Light Working Bulbs | eBay

and ive bought from this guy.. pretty quick shipping and packaged well.. although if i remember right i think it was an exhaust, not exactly breakable.. anyway id buy it

 

i seen that right after i posted last night lol

 

did you buy it?? hope so..
is this your first nine hundred??
what kind of shape is it in??
pictures man pictures
if you need any advice just ask, there's still plenty of people around here who knows these 900's inside and out although this part of the forum can be slow at times, someone will always come by and your question and eventually..

 

i ended up finding one local, yeah its my first 900 ive always owned 600's but i wanted something with more power. Bike looks bad as far as the fairing goes but ive ordered all of that new waiting for it to come in. Bike runs great has great power, has a little knocking sound in the clutch case i figure it will need a clutch kit ill wait till i take it apart to see what the noise is. i think i just ordered about 1500.00 in parts about a week ago lol. it will look nice when im done with it, almost ashamed to show pics of it right now but what the hec
Should be illegal to let a good bike go like that.

 

hell no, thats awesome your posting some up!!
just keep coming back and post new pictures every time you do an upgrade..
she looks like someone hasnt taken care of her in a long time..
its a great bike man, i hope she gives you many miles of enjoyment..
i have a few my self and two i ride weekly, i switch back and forth..
i would check to see if she has a jet kit installed.. and i would also suggest going to factorypro for +4degrees timing advance, its a good mod for like 60 bucks..
and the very first thing i do on all my new rides is run seafoam through the engine and then a quick oil change and the other half through the tank to clean out the carbs and intake.. if its been sitting more than running , you'll def notice a difference almost immediately..

 

yeah i already put the seafoam in the fuel im waiting to change the oil until after i strip off all the old fairing and inspect and clean. When i change the oil ill inspect that clutch noise also, i just put the new grips and LED headlights in it yesterday ill take some pics today of the upgrades. I have a bunch of parts coming in but i have to wait like 24 days on the fairings (REPSOL racing replica fairing is special order). I also got in my header wrap tape im sure that will be a chore to get on there right...lol

 

got the new grips and LED headlights installed, starting the teardown and cleaning job now





pictures dont do the HEADlights justice they are very bright.
