    Hi Folks

    Just bought a 2013 CBR 1000RR and so far blown away with it, by far best bike I’ve owned.

    I’m new to these forums but looking forward to chatting with you all and learning more about the community.

    Ace, Gary. And a black reverse side of the number plate satisfies my 'all-in-order' OCD. Austin can looks the part too, especially with a well-fitted infill panel. It seems to suit black bikes well. Good pick up!

    Welcome!

    Looks lovely.
    Nice AR exhaust too...

    Also, you could do with a bit more space there to keep it stored safely o_O

    Hi nice to hear from you
    I took a risk and bought cheap Chinese fairing kit but to my surprise arrived very quickly and not bad quality.
    Not OEM and needed abit of patience drilling& filing but overall very happy with em
