....so i didnt get a VFR 1200 F because my house windovs cost me way more than i calculated (owerhauling the house at the moment  ).
But i did buy a nev bike anyway  .
It is a Honda CB 1000 R and it is a true allrounder  .
Next weekend i am working, but the weekend after that i will be ripping my GTS apart and check the gearbox  . Lucky me only the third gear is shreded (prety sure). |

| Fancy buying a Ho**a. They're generators are fine, I'm told, but a bike? Did you not get chance to try a Fazer/FZ1 beforehand? Mark my words, you will be taking stress tablets before long - no excitement in your life.... |

hehe of course i did...friend has a FZ1S and i rode the bike more than once...but...CB1000R looks much better and the torque curve is totaly diferent. It is smoother and seems more powerfull. It pulls wheeleyes much easyer and it hammers itself up to 250 km/h without any hesitation.
The FZ1 comes out of a "hole" and suddenly (it can surprise you) and 150 HP are more than you ewer need for eweryday riding...
The problem on Yamaha is that it is allso to expensive, the passenger footrests are to high and the passenger has to crunch the legs to much (knee ache is programed there after one hour of riding)...
On the other hand i am officialy a Honda, Triumph and Ducati mecanic now...so i do all of the services on my bike by myself . |
