my honda cbr1000f

[img][/img] my honda cbr 1000f, longer swinging arm by 5 inch , was drag racing it at the isle of man ramsey sprint this year 2010

COOL MACHINE I WOULD KEEP IT LIKE IT IS , IS THAT NOS ON IT ? I WOULD FIND IF YOUR ARE IN THE RIGHT AREA SOMETHING LIKE A YAMAHA FJ OR NEWER HONDA , ONE THATS NOT SET UP LIKE YOUR IS , AND CHOP THAT ONE ! OR FIND A SALVAGE BIKE THATS GOT A GOOD ENGINE , MAYBE MODIFY A CLASSIC NORTEN FEATHBED FRAME , NEW NINJA FORKS , STRETCHED SWINGARM , ONE OF THOSE BENALLI MOJOVE TANKS THERE SELLING ON EGAY FOR 110 US DOLLARS , IM PICTURING A SWEET CAFE ! NOW IM GETTIN A STIFFY ! JUST MY 2 CENTS WORTH ! PRETTY HONDA ! IN ABOUT 20 YRS IT WILL BE A COLLECTORS ITEM !

Lovely bike, nice and subtle!

My son and I were riding at the 2010 Ramsey Sprint too but on a much older bike!

Very sorry to hear that fella. I've been there and it's always a sad day when the bike has to go.

Aye, it was a bit special, you can just about see in the picture, polished rims, custom swinging arm by JMC and a 4:2:1 s/s system with a Remus track-day end can, the old bird really howled when you rang it's neck, but for long-distance cruising I've never owned or ridden a better bike. Get off after a long day in the saddle and whilst everyone else was stretching and un-cricking their necks and joints I was pouring a mug of coffee and settling down to admire the scenery!
