Default What to check!

I am going to buy a CBR1000F 1991.

Sorry.. cheers to everybody.. and I am Fabio or Mariofa for the most out there.
Long term Honda user. (not expert!). I used to drive the 1973 CB 500. Now
The Hornet 600F. Next: the CBR 1000F?

Beside my personal case, indeed, interesting

What shall I check when buying the CBR1000F?

In particular I am in Switzerland, and they give strange numbers
about the bike HPs.

Are you aware of special swiss versions?

I cannot promise I will be a user of this forum,
Indeed, If I get to buy that bike, I might be back.

So, Thanks, in advance.
In any case.
Cheers
Fabio

Rattle from the cam chain on startup.Not a major issue I replaced mine yesterday.Took about 6 hours total including fairings........
No Swiss version, I think your bike will be the German version - ask about if the bike is the reduced power model (restricters in the carb inlet rubbers cuts power to 100 HP) Fairly easy to resolve.
Good luck.
