Hi chaps, Newbie here, got a CBR1000F and ZZR1100 but since owning the CBR the Kwaka is going, prefer riding the CBR

Been riding bikes for almost 45 years so must do something right, plus lots of luck!!

Baz

Thanks for the welcome

I am getting on a bit (so I am told) but have never really grown up and dont want to now just because I am 60

I will take a pic of my CBR tomorrow, mind you I'm in England so it will probably be raining!

I know the CBR is supposed to be a Tourer and its certainly very good at that, but big bikes need to be ridden "enthusiastically" now and then

You are not alone. Here's a link just right for you: https://cbrforum.com/forum/hurricane-saloon-79/vote-how-many-old-coots-hurricanes-101929/

I think we all get a little "frisky" from time to time.

Thanks for the link, looks like theres 9 of us 60+ blokes on here, only good thing I can think of is that insurance is certainly cheaper! And the Police seem a tad more forgiving, maybe I will try saying that I forgot the speed limit next time
