Hello people, my name is Jack and I am from Montreal, Canada. I just bought a 1994 CBR 1000F with 39,000 km on it. Sold my 1998 Shadow 1100 Tourer. Like my son said to me: "Dad, now I know it's true what they say when folks get older, they start acting like kids."
But hey! what can I say, I've been riding for 40 years now and this is only my second sport/touring bike. Fell in love as soon as I saw it. The only other sport bike I had was a 1972 Suzuki GT750 2 stroke, a real pole climber if you didn't know how to treat it.
Anyways, I'm really looking forward to read all of you guys posts and comments and what not and hope to make a few friends on the way.
Have a super day everybody.

 

Welcome Jack!
What do kids know anyway?

Looks like you found a clean one. Stop by the Hurricane section and introduce yourself to them as well. Lots of info and laughs over there. They're a great group that love their 1000fs.

Bet it was hard to part with the Shadow...

 

Welcome to the CBR Forum Jack!

Nice couple of bikes you have there, and I feel you will fit right in! Many of us in the Hurricane section have clearly forgotten (or ignored) the whole 'growing up' bit of life and still manage to have a very good time in our 'middle years'

Ask any questions you need, we also love to keep these beautiful old CBR1000Fs running sweetly and on the road.

Cheers, SB

PS: Only took me 5 minutes to realise it said Honda on the bouncy bits of your avatar. Simply mesmerising

 

hey, welcome to cbrf! it looks like you're good with computers or have been active on other forums. great avatar and i look forward to seeing you on the forum.

 

Welcome to the forums, Jack!

Nice looking bikes you have there
And as I've always said growing old is inevitable, growing up isn't :P

 

Welcome - both bikes are lookers!

 

Welcome aboard Jack!

Congrats on your new to you 1000F.

Always good to add more experienced riders to our collective.

Settle in & enjoy!
