Hey, im Bryan i got myself a 1991 CBR 1000F just the other day. its a beautiful bike, although it needs a little work

 

Welcome to the forum, Bryan... good to have you here.
All our bikes need at least a little work. Except mine.. she's perfect...

Indiana Doug, welcome aboard (officially...lol..).
Steve's right about his couch. He's very protective of it...

 

If perfection means ............blind in one eye, can't see much with
the other.............Then indeed hiz is a perfect bike

 

Yep, sprock...

I'm a one-eyed man in the kingdom of the blind...

(why don't we have a middle finger smiley??? LOL)

 

I thought that my starting problems had been fixed, but I was wrong..#!#$@!!

Finishing a 12 hour night shift this morning and looking forward to getting home to bed - only to find that my bike wouldn't start was quite emotional.

Taking out the carbies next week to have them serviced and cleaned. I hope that sorts it!!

 

I am new to this form and to owning a 1000F. i have had my bike now for about a month and love riding it. I had to put a factory dog bone back on it since it was lowered about 3-4 inches and has an extended rear swing arm. I am currently running a 180/55/17 rear tire and looking to replace it. I was checking if that is the correct size tire for the rear of my bike or not. thank you all in advance for any responces.

 

Welcome to the forums, pschulte!
The 180 rear is the correct size. What year is your bike? I don't think I've seen many (if any) with an extended swingarm... interesting.
Also, where are you from? Got any pics?

 

New member dropping by to say howdy! Picked up my '93 CBR1000F today and rode home in the rain. What a blast!!
I've noticed lots a good information here, hope to make use of it.
