Dilemma time... It's been a while since I worked on it. Just dug it out and need to do something with it, just what though I'm not sure - yet. Space however is now at a premium as my mancave is no longer

For those that don't know what they're looking, it's a 1994 CBR900RR (with a few tweaks)!!

I'll be headed stateside permanently by August if all goes well, which with other stuff to clear up (and another two months in the US soon) before I go leaves little time to finish her off.

1st option: is to stump up a few quid and ship her out to the States (which is the easy bit, thanks to emission laws I'd have to put a fair bit of stuff back in her guts to get a title (registered) for her - thereafter I could strip it all off and no-one would give a toss )

2nd option: is to find some non-existent time (and money!!) and finish her off before selling.

3rd option: is to find some other person who wants to buy a running (rather loudly ) 'Blade that needs a few tweaks before it goes for MOT.


I've got a pretty good idea what the first option would cost (and it wasn't too appealing until I realised how pricey 2nd-hand bikes of that kind of age are in the States, pre '90s and they practically give them away )
So, using the collective brain that is BCF, what do the esteemed massif think said 'Blade would fetch as it is or spanked up and made MOT'able ( both with a big box of all the stuff ripped off her).

This thread gives more of an idea what's been done to her.

What still needs doing? Looks like, in the classic words of eBay sellers, it's 99.99% done.

Swap you for an R125.





I know what your answer will be.

Wouldn't want to swap for a CB250RS? I've heard they are very popular these days

Last year I picked up my '94 900rr for £1800 in very good standard condition considering age.

Sell here, and sell as is if possible to someone that could finish and ride it afterwards.

If you want to do that to a blade again, then there will be plenty of them Stateside to pick up cheap and probably modify more cheaply over there too.

Lol at Marjay, but I agree with him I'm sorry! The polished frame, renthals and no bodywork is liveable just, but the tail unit and paintjob do not want!
