Hi all.

I am new to the forum.

I own a gorgeous 1000f from 1992. Touching 50000miles.
It's my second bike and I needed something comfortable to go long distances.
This baby inspires confidence. Smooth power delivery, reliable & easy to maintain. just a bit heavy though.

That's some inventory Sebastionbear your shed must be bigger than my house . . .

That's the my only problem they don't make shed's that big here in Ireland ha

I don't think I'd ever get anything done with all them in my possession

Hey, New to the forum.
Picking up an 88 that has been sitting for about 4 or 5 years. Know both the owners and most of the history, but it's gonna need a lot of work. I'll be scowering the forum for advice. Pics to follow.

Welcome to the CBR Forum Tiki,

Plenty of people here willing to help and provide advice on getting your bike on the road again, or even find parts. Depending on how far you intend to go with the rebuild, may I suggest Wheelnut's excellent rebuild blog on his CBR1000F for starters.

And remember........



Cheers, SB

Hi Scorbally1, welcome to the forum.

Might be better off posting here for you missing part, you'll get more of a response.
