Hey everyone, names brett and ive been looking though the site
for a month or so now, been very helpfull and interesting .
Ive spent the last 4 weeks doing up the grand dady cbr, the 600f1 1990
modal. done plugs/oil/filter/air filter, cleaned up all the wireing , serviced the forks, seals/oil and fully resprayed the bike ,as that is my trade, auto painter. Anyhow to cut a long story short , after years of offroad racing really enjoying being back on a road bike again. ive had many years back a 85 gsxr 750 a gpz 600 and a katana 750, and for a older bike i rate this above those, i really like the power of this bike and the handling is pretty stable, for its age, all tho im still building up my mojo
to really lean her over save that for our summer over here in nz and then ill fit the new rubber waiting in the garage.

 

Hey thanks for the welcome, ill take the time to look though those links.
Ive only been the member of a forum in a car club so im not totally green, but
could brush up on the skills
