Hi guys!

just a quick post to say hello!

I have just become the proud and excited like a little kid (now 34) owner of a 1990 CBR400RR! My first “big” bike haha! Loved this shape since I was a kid and when I found out a guy in work was selling one I had to have it! Can’t wait to get her on the road! Only needs a couple of things. Been sitting a while so a service, get rid of the fuel in the tank and the rear wheel bearing needs changed. Gonna do the chain and sprockets as well. Chain is a tad rusty so I thought I’d be as well do the sprockets at the same time. I’m a car mechanic to trade, albeit a while since I worked on cars, so I know my way around a spanner but I’ll definitely be in touch for some bike related help!

Anyway, this short introduction has turned into an essay so I’ll leave it there haha!

Cheers!

Jon
