What’s up guys, I’m new to this forum. I’m in the market for a CBR 1000RR and was wondering if anyone has any advice on the most comfortable and reliable year? I’m 6’2” 190Lbs and I’m mainly just going to be riding around the city. Any feedback would be much appreciated. Thanks,

 

Welcome Jesse Lynn to the forum. I'd suggest posting this question in the 1000 RR section as you may get a better response. For me, comfort is not the word that comes to mind with any of the RR's. Nothing against them, but with the Clip-on's mounted below the triple tree, having your weight on your wrists is almost a given except when riding at highway speeds. I hope you find some better answers there.

 

Agreed, would not be my first choice for a town bike, however I think the 06/07 models were the 'comfiest'

 

Hey everyone new to the form first time asking on the form as well I really need some help with my CBR 929 I had an idiot pull out in front of me I tried to dodge it had to clip the front end of the car left side of my bike is with smashed basically I had to replace the entire front the front clip forks triple tree ignition also the main chassis frame I had to replace it now my question is after putting everything together my bike is fully back as simple except for the fairings of course my bike it's got full Powers at everything lights all everything are working but for some reason my fuel pump I don't hear it kicking in not turning on you know that whining sound when you have the key on the on position and the kill switch on run I don't hear it but my bike will turn over but it's not firing off I'm assuming it's not getting fuel but I pretty sure that my fuel pump is not bad my bike is really clean really kept up today and one owner but I really don't think it's my fuel pump but I have a question now when replacing the ignition the whole ignition and new keys does that put the bike in like I safe mode or or something like that because when I have the new ignition on and plugged in yeah I thought I didn't crank up but like I said it never fully crank up it just turned into just turning over now with the new ignition does that put the bike in safe mode in any way shape or form I'm trying to troubleshoot and figure out why it's not starting any help any advice would be highly and greatly appreciative thank you all and to all the CBR family who can help

 

There are better choices for around-town bikes but good luck to you.

 

Well I appreciate the luck but I wouldn't change my bike for another bike at all I love my 929 even if it is just riding around town but I'm completely done with it except for the fact that it won't prime I did a full frame swap do front clip a new forks new triple tree do lower clamp and also a new ignition and I think me swapping the ignition out with a new one aftermarket off of eBay is may have caused it because I believe that for the ECM to tell the fuel pump to prime it has to be 9 volts from the ignition switch to the computer to the fuel pump and I believe the ignition I have is sending a straight 12 volt and I don't know what to do if I have to make a jumper on the bottom end of the wiring harness of the ignition because I pretty sure that it doesn't have a zener diode and this ignition like the factory does if I if I'm right I don't know for sure but from the research that I have seen and read That's what I've gathered but any help at all would be highly appreciative

 

Yes, find a factory ignition system and put that on and you'll probably be ok.
