  1. How about you take your studies and fuck off
  2. I was 64 when I bought my first CBR Well done for trying it though and now you have the information for the future
  3. It’s boiling, that’s what happens when you boil water
  4. I’ve used this company https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/305315372021?itmmeta=01HRYWHEZ5SNH556CQQ1XTAFQ6&hash=item471636dbf5:g:EBcAAOSwn-xj5O7T&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA4JY5dEx7C35VgxSEvYin89rC%2FeRu2W4UI8iHl70H%2BcReAoXvzqzsGPCv2wlcZucFmUv8pv4lkmhZfeEi0aubBij4Z5ODIOxVTaL%2BrY0cP9sCsVVnpPUUqu9ZxVTWzkERwkg%2FmRUc0%2Feggj%2FxPqK2HVVP5xfgnVdYmFivs3ICmfzRYHcm8%2Bh7TW0vI6A3%2BR0w20OU%2BgXizWkn3X%2FqTCQK54UhLGSUlgM9dC3RhzPC%2F%2Bex7E8jYl9NNSbfwJPUk5uYhyZnFpxbbJXOMOVFjDPv2G%2Bvk2jyjurMWVW4C8ov6CfR|tkp%3ABk9SR_bvxdzHYw
  5. Join the Vintage Japanese Motorcycle Club, there’s several in there plus all the other services
  6. Took the bike out for the first ride of the year, after a particularly wet winter, I have a feeling that I might have to replace the battery, otherwise it was great
  7. Nice bike …..the shopping rack spoils it IMHO
  8. This one has a “through about”, you can drive through the middle
  9. Perhaps they could help you write the apology letter for messing with us
  10. The controller for the heated grips is on the left side next to the grip, your grips look OEM
  11. You can get pretty much any size of spray can, touch ups or just tins of paint since it’s a standard Honda colour
  12. Welcome …..same year as my 8th gen …..you’ll enjoy it
  13. Ever since lockdown the appalling behaviour of car drivers has deteriorated further
  14. Me too, tomorrow is looking good for me 🤞
  15. I’d still check the bolts fit, the one I bought for my 89 didn’t
  16. The O rings on my 89 were in pieces and like wood, so you’re probably correct Remove the bolts #14/16 and the assembly will lift off, you should change the other O rings while you’re that deep in the engine, #10 will fall apart when you pull it apart
  17. I was watching this video last night, your workshop is amazing as is your work
  18. Have you set the sag yet?
  19. Once you have a structural repair then you can use whatever you want, I like to use cellulose putty to get the panel to the point where I’ll put paint on it If it’s OEM colour then you can get paint fairly easily Chinese fairings fit where they touch, basically a last resort
  20. Get some ABS pipe adhesive, the stuff used for joining drain pipes ABS plastic sheet is available from eBay, 2 mm thick, cut into strips and glued on the inside of the fairing while you hold the crack together Acetone can then be carefully placed in the crack on the outside and then press it shut, hold for 5 minutes and repeat as required, I use a syringe to avoid problems I’ve repaired several panels that were in pieces and one had a 8” square chunk missing
  21. I don’t think a pipe cleaner is a good idea with the fuzzy outer A piece of copper wire should be fine
