i hope you like it as much as i do. thanks for voting!!

 

Ahh well see, that's a common mistake


Cheers, SB

 

that's what I was thunking too

sufficiently erroneous even lol

but the biggest common-mistake is .....he's not a competitor - so that post is toast

 

I really wasn't going to take this too seriously - and probably still won't Much prefer a ride, then a nice mellow Barossa Red a good book and better woman!

But, the blinged up whippersnippers deserve respect and to be placed high on the list of desirable bikes - but not as high as the venerable, proven, beautiful in their originality, CBR1000Fs.

I give you..........my proud old work horse, 123,000 km on the clock. Runs like a Swiss watch, pulls like a Great Western Railway Locomotive, has the looks of a (slightly aged) supermodel, handles beautifully and most importantly of all, brings a smile to my face every time I ride it, be the distance small or large.

So, if you're into solidity, longevity and levity - the CBR1000F deserves your vote!

Cheers, SB

 

My Aussie bike is still very much a work in progress.

When that photo was taken the only mods were:
- double bubble dark tinted screen
- rim tape

Since then I have added:
- pipe
- fender eliminator
- ventura racks

Still to go:
- flush mount indicators

I've only owned the bike for about 6 weeks. It was bone stock when I got it.

I'll try and get some current pictures this weekend.

 

what are these racks you speak of?

 

They are like a Gearsack rack similar to that at the rear of my CBR1000F.

You have to be able to carry a slab of beer to a barbeque Downunder at the very minimum.

Cheers, SB

 

ah ok, never heard them called racks before it threw me off.

 

New pics of my bike:











And with my mate's Gixxer. Older pic, but awesome nonetheless.
