It's all one piece. My main bumper is cracked up, but as I listed in the buy/sell forum all the other associated pieces are mint if you need them Billy. And I'll cut you an incredible deal.

 

Just curious because of the spacer welded on there. How much do those go for ?

 

got them in the GB for 95 bucks

 

Cheap

 

yeah, couldn't really justify saying no...

 

Well the voltage regulator is in.... Not sure what next... I'll charge the battery fully and see what happens! It kept cutting out

 

Exactly.

 

Tx I will let you know what I decide to do

 

Get a service manual...

 

or a bike that runs!

 

You guys do realize you're talking to a 19 year old right? I know I knew everything at that age

 

With a little TLC, the bike will run, and run well. After I got away from dual sports, my first dedicated pavement pounder was a 1990 CBR 600 and it was in much worse condition than Alex's. Once it was fixed up and running, my buddy couldn't lose me on his brand new R6. At least it's carb'd so he can actually work on it. I agree with Sloth though, get a manual!

 

just in time for winter!

 

Steve is a friend of mine if you want I can PM you his number.

 

Haha, yeah, that's about how it goes

My old 1990 CBR, I finished it in January and, since I had been working on it for so long and was excited (and 19), I threw on my snowmobile gear and went for a ride. It was 28 degrees outside but we were coming off a warm spell so there wasn't any ice on the road, it was a f-in cold but I was soo happy to have it up and running.

Sure, I'm not 100% sure I'll go through with it but that's really tempting. I want to get back to the 265/70R17 tires, I liked that size.

 

285s!

 

Yeah... or not.

Next tires will either be 265/70R17 or 255/75R17. I have no desire to go with 285's, I put on too many highway miles.

 

255/80/17

 

I'd recommend the 255's. I'm running them now and I love them

 

That's what I have and they get the job done quite nicely!
