Finally, hopefully getting a bike that will last longer than 6 months.
Bit more HP than the Bros as well. Razz Thumbs Up

Has anyone had any experience with CB-1's?
From reviews they seem like good fun but it's hard to find a bad review of any bike on the net.

I know it's an aftermarket exhaust (no original) but for the price and I would have prefered one anyway it doesn't matter.

Very excited about it all.

Can't say I know anything about them in particular, but it looks really nice. Should be a bit more fun than the Bros as well. Laughing

Enjoy it.

No, really???




Yes I noticed but if it's good I'll buy it when I see it.
It's the cheapest good bike I've found.
You've started making me freak out about someone buying it before me now Evil or Very Mad . No I talked to him so it's as good as mine if it's all ship shape.

Thats' cool. Think I'm just getting a bit techy because I'm so close to having a bike again. Not having one for two weeks only has really made me appreciate how unbelievably cool/ usefull/ fun etc.... they are.
Maybe I'll even have it long enough to do an oil change Rolling Eyes .

The only problem I can see with a CB-1, considering I looked into this as I nearly bought one a few months back is that they were never sold in this country, making parts a bit of a bitch.

Other than that, it's an IL4 Honda, so hopefully not too much should go wrong/drop off.

the CB-1 has the same engine as the NC29 so it will have the same power. Don't know what the handling is like but the bike has been given really good mark for it's value by the bike mags.

err jon?... oil and filter every 600 miles, i think you might have mis-read something there, there is no way on that engine, where did you find an english CB-1 manual anyway? Wink
