My New (Used) CBR929R

Just picked it up this weekend. I think I saw the guy crying as he drove away in his car as I climbed on the bike and drove it to its new home...I LOVE IT!!!

Awesome that you picked up a 929, but sucks for the guy. I would definitely cry if I had to sell mine....

I had a similar Micron on my old Cbr600, damn what a great sound!! Hated selling that bike. So not to feel that pain you can never sell this bike, just buy more bikes and make the family bigger

Re: My New (Used) CBR929R

You know he had his wife with him and said they where saving to buy a house. So I made sure to give the money to her...He looked really sad and she looked extremely happy. I felt really bad for the guy, but I guess I understand..sometimes you just got to do what you got to do...

Re: My New (Used) CBR929R

Said it on your intro thread i'll say it hear I love that damn color scheme.
White and red just go great together.
Lovin the chrome wheels on it. Ballin'.
A+
Enjoy the new blade bro.

p.s-If I may make a suggestion. Not that it needs it at all, but I think, IMHO a Iridium(mirror style) windscreen would play nicely with the polished and chrome pieces on your bike.

Re: My New (Used) CBR929R

Yeah I was thinking about looking for different mirrors, as the ones on there I had to move my head quite a bit to see what was behind me. thanks for the suggestion I will definitely look into that package.

DUH - I had to re-read it again and you are suggesting the windscreen...I will look into that too...

Another bike that dresses well in chrome. Usually not a fan of chrome on sportbikes, but your bike wears it well.

I agree but I would put some BST's on that, the wheels are too shinny for the bike IMO. everything else is killer!
