Default Back on a bike!!!

Hello everyone, im new to the forum and after 20 years off im back on a bike. I ride and race bicycles though so never truly left 2 wheels. I live about 30 miles outside of Manchester, UK and have access to some great riding in the Yorkshire dales and Cumbrian Lake District mountains. Just got myself a 1987 CBR750f supersport. It is in great condition for age and was the right price. Its obviously an import but parts, consumables like filters, brake pads and many other parts dont seem to be a problem on ebay, we'll see. Cant find much in the way of manuals for servicing so hopefully can pick some of your brains along the way.
Cheers!

I'l put some pics up when i can work out how to!! All my pics are on dropbox and I dont know how to get the url that im asked for i was expecting to either be able to copy and paste or insert a link. Im sure its simple....ha ha.

What is Shedmusic? Im a racing cyclist, amateur, and do a lot of higher intensity training on a static trainer in the shed. Shedmusic is my catchall term for any music that motivates and gets me through the "pain". I know its sad isnt it but you know.......

Shedmusic... good to know. I was thinking it referred to singing in an outhouse!

I'm not a dropbox user, so I can't help you there. However, Photobucket seems to be the prefered method to post pics. Just copy the IMG link on the righthand side to your post.
