  • I was crazy excited to get my hands on a low VIN, 1992 first production year Honda CBR900RR N Fireblade ... A bike that changed the landscape of superbikes when it launched back in the day. It was one hell of a journey (as usual) to restore this iconic classic to it's former glory. With lots of aftermarket parts and mods "installed" but luckily with only minor accident damage and scrapes.
    It also helps that it doesn't seem to have been stored upside down in a seaside shed without a roof... for almost 30 years.

      Thanks Gerrie! It's well worth preserving these iconic awesomenesses. If you're not commuting on a daily basis I can't see you having more fun on a modern bike.

      @counter-steer I notice in a portion of your video you received a bunch of oem honda parts for your bike. Do you have a website link for the supplier? Also I was not able to find one with a complete fairing set so I'm looking at the aftermarket sets from China. I'm curious if you've had any experience with those and are able to comment on the quality of them. Thank you for your time. I appreciate it.

    • @counter-steer
      @counter-steer  Před 8 měsíci

      No worries! Parts are from CMSNL… it’s a outfit in the Netherlands that has a ton of old Honda NOS parts. Not cheap but they have free shipping. Fairings you will have to find used on ebay or Facebook groups. I have no experience with the Chinese plastics… great for race bikes but you’ll loose a lot of resale value on these classic bikes.

      Heya! Just when you think you’ve head it all… lol. That being sId Fireblade carbs on a golf sounds like a good idea. At the top are the vacuum / breather tubes no? I’m no carb expert though, I just clean $h!t and re-assemble
