  1. Trying to erase the black paint from stock rear wheel, by eraiser that you spray on as wash away In picture fluid is doing the magic After power washer done it's job, needs a second round and better clothing to not get wet.... Happen I scored a reasonable price passenger seat cover cowl, not perfect but will do Should get it in a few weeks
  2. Have not made a pair yet even I have some ideas. Give me a pm to let me know where your located as want for them.
  3. Got the kit for rear brake caliper as well Also some other stuff arrived A much nicer rear wheel axle A OEM front mudflap bracket And a seat, that needs cleaning but much better condition than the one that came whit bike, and color fits current bike color as well, as I plan to run bike as stock looking now first season. Got it for 20€! Saturday did buy a pad that erase stickers as I want the current silver stickers off, a very effective tool for that! Now the polish can begun
  4. Rear brake caliper pistons out finally, need seriously cleaning, but will probably then be good to use again. Also got this in the mail today A rebuild kit for front brake calipers! A rebuild kit for the rear is on the way. I just couldn't resist this as even the label says 41€ (69€ in a local motorcycle stores webshop) I got this for 20€ (+2,5€ postage) that I think is a steal, I recall how much better the front brakes became on my 87 back in time after I did rebuild the front brake calipers whit new rebuild kit.
  5. Yes, 2,5x16 front 4,5x17 rear. I was first thinking of a cb seven fifty F2 (1992 on) rear wheel that is 4" wide as a rear and convent from 17 to 20mm axle, but then thought at 4,5 is a better choice if I in some point decide to try the cbr1000f fork I have... I'm not sure what size yet tire Been looking at outer diameters and sizes and 150/70 or 160/70 are mostly what I been looking at, depending on what shock I end up whit. I can go bias or radial in those size. The 160/60-17 that the CBR F2 has as stock is slightly smaller in diameter. I know one that has used the StreetSmart front whit a Radial (Avon) rear whit excellent results (on a FJ1200 that has 16" wheels). So a matching StreetSmart or RoadSmart perhaps or a GPR300 if a Dunlop, I will see, next summer I plan to still use OEM rear wheel as it has a good tire, to see the bike runs good, then next winter do bigger change to the bike, rear wheel as shock and hopefully the CBR900 fairing.
  6. Today 2 quite different size boxes arrived What was in the 2 boxes The black in the smaller box whit just some styrofoam on other side of rim, the red in the bigger box that had a lot of cardboard (sheets as boxes) inside, how I like to see things packed! Both had survive the shipping ok thro
  7. One I know recommend these strongly, he use them on a old FJ1200 and think they are almost as good as a radial tire. I will know this summer
  8. Well didn't look that bad even not good The pistons are bearly moving, specially one of them but eventually got them out, a rebuild kit for rear caliper needed
  9. Well brake pads off now and think they are shoot
