Default Hi

Hi

I'm new to this forum, I picked up a 89 cbr1000 off ebay, Very happy with it after a few teething issues.

Started off on a rz250, then a VFR, cbr600, 2 blades and now a thou. (getting older, more comfort and nealy as much power)

I enjoy the information everybody is happy to share so thankyou to all (it helped me through my teething issues)

will post again soon Greg

3g's for an 89? Not trying to be rude or anything but ive owned 87 cbr 600 hurricane that i only gave $800 for with 10xxx miles on it & I bought an 89 cbr 1000 hurricane for $1800. It has 16xxx miles on it and is in near mint condition. I know the 87 cbr 600 i got was just and awesome deal.. But I live down here and Tx and i see the 1000cc hurricanes that dont go but between $1500-$2200 in REALLY GOOD condition. Just might be cause everything is cheaper in Tx. The cost of living down here is the cheapiest in america... Where are you from?
