just kidding you. bike looks good.

 

I almost bought this one. It's sweet. I wanted one older.
*RARE*- Awesome 1997 CBR 900RR - "Joe Camel"

 

anything i should know about common faults?

 

The Reticifer/Regulator, Esp on the older blades. Make sure its not the stock one. Thanks to GotCBR and jasonchristopher I found the old style on my bike and swapped it for a new one.

 

yes lovely looking bike almost as nice as mine lol,enjoyed pacific highway run as well ,you guys are lucky living in a nice climate,ime soooooo jealous i only get to use mine 7 out of 12 months .here she is.http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...9/DSCF2268.jpg

 

i fitted one of these simple divices lets you know at a glance if reg/rec is charging ok only 11 quid on ebay.

 

I actually never had any problem with my Factory r/r for the time I have own the bike...but after a few suggestions, I came upon a good deal, so i swap it with a 2004 VFR r/r

Most important is to understand the bike, get a service manual, if you don't have one, members here can link you up....

For the time I have own my bike, the fork seals fail at 22k....replace it.

He fan switch went bad a 24K, so replace it.

Then the clutch switch in the perch got stick for being too old...causing, when you pull the clutch, but switch don't work, so bike thinks you didn't pull the lever so it don't start in gear...replace it.

Make sure you check all the fairing bolts before long rides, sometimes it will rattle loose...guess this goes for all bikes

 

love my 900, have hade 5 so far and 4 600 like the 900 better.
