I prefer the red white and blue blades but that does look mighty tidy...

Is it me being a douche or is the oil a tad low in the last picture?

But, that's proper fapping material. Loyal owner, you are

Fuck me that's clean.


You should see my similarly aged CBR600 .

[neatbik]

Goddamn that is clean!

Lovely, these Blades are definitely growing on me.

[salty21]

how many miles has it done? cant be a lot by the looks of it. Or your just really good at looking after it.

I'd quite like to buy a bike from new and keep it looking pristine, but i'm not sure i could find one i'd be happy to keep for more than a few years.

street triple would be my best bet i think, everyone seems to be going mad for them at the minute

Be prepared for a LOT of issues if it's an RRY model instead of an RR1 based on the paint scheme.

Here's a laundry list of problems on mine.

1) 3x regulator rectifiers, along with 3 sets of batteries and 2 burnt out alternators. Sickpup off here suggested I get a mosfet rectifier off an 09 R1 (shindingen - ebay MOSFET regulator/rectifier and you'll get them from the states for less than £100 including connectors to wire DIRECTLY TO YOUR BATTERY thereby passing any faulty section of wiring looms)

2) Cam position sensors can go with NO warning. It doesn't provide you with a fault code on the dash, so you'll be left with a bike that has all the electrics working, but with a motor that won't spin up.

3) Camcahins will rattle about 30k miles.

Get yourself singed onto fireblades.org if you need any questions on mechanical issues.

Anyway, here's my 44k miler hardcore winter hack - for the last 3 years, it lived outdoors, but nobody would guess that it's done 44k miles and ridden in winter!

wheeze that is clean worth a lot of money in that condition in comparison to all the other's out there.

i had one of these, fantastic colours i think and the oil is fine its on its side stand hence why it looks empty.

however
OP: should the oil be in the middle of the top/bottom like not on the top line ?

doubt it makes much difference just saying

banging bike

[garth]

I don't call my vehicles she.

I always cringe when people do. Have a wank and get some clarity.

[flumpy7]

Yup i love that era of 'blade...really wish i hadnt got rid of mine a couple of years ago. I have a disorder im sure....i want a different bike even when i've got something i love. It takes me all of about half an hour to regret selling them.

I recently did the complete Flapper valve removal and had the custom map tweeked to suit.

she's now 132bhp (was 130bhp last time She went on the rollers about 10years ago and with better midrange too...tuner commented that she was running very well and putting out good figures for a 929) and the induction noise is sexual


Had a good couple of hours on her.

Most bikes *are* female.
For example my 'Busa girls, they're definately female.

BUT, my MZ Mastiff, he's a bouncey dawg
