Thank you, yes too old the the superbikes now .. lol. My first bike was the CB900F - 1980 (Black/Silver) rare as hens teeth now , then I had the 87 CBR, 90 CBR and a range of others.
I currently have Triumph, Aprilia, Harley in the stable along with the 2 x 87 CBR's and a 1983 CB900F2 BoldOr. Always looking for that bike that is being dumped into the market and could be restored to a jewel.

This photo killed me yesterday ... ahhh




Cheers.

That bike was stolen / recovered .. no damage except for ignition lock until ... the idiot tow truck drivers literally pushed it over and picked it up with the bob cat.

They should be publicly flogged! No excuse to do that to a bike! <shudder>
