New Guy- Old rider
 
Hey All,
New to this forum, haven't had a CBR since before there were forums. Just picked up a lightly used, much loved 1990 1000F with just 18,000 Mi. on the clock. According to the 72 year old guy I bought it from; never been ridden in the rain, never sat outside overnight, itza sweetie!

Needs the usual stuff, tires were from 2004 and 06 respectively, fluids, carb clean, fork seal just weeping a teensy bit, it should be fun fettling this old charmer!

I've been in the motorcycle business for 27 years, in fact sold a bunch of these back in the day. I work for an Italian OEM now so this big Honda is a therapy tool as well.

I joined to be able to share what little I know and to have access the acquired knowledge you all have gained, to help shortcut the pitfalls and have fun with this fine classic motorcycle!

Best regards,
Jim

Welcome to the CBR Forum Jim,

Post up some pics of your new ride when you get a chance. And drop into the Hurricane Saloon and say hi to the guys.

Cheers, SB

Welcome to the forum Jim. Maybe you sold that one and it found you again after all those years.
