CBF1000A

Post by Taff »

Cbf1000A, 2008, just under 27k miles, Forest of Dean. £2250.
I've already bought its replacement so I'm open to offers as long as it's not too silly, and it's collected before Friday the 12th 15:00, which is when it's going in as PX.
This has been my daily commuter and has been fantastically reliable.
I've given it a service every 4k or so, in the last couple of months replaced the rear shock with a YSS and stripped the forks replacing the springs, again with YSS.
The stator burnt out last year so was replaced with one from West country windings.
MRA vario screen on Palmer product brackets is blissfully quiet. Heated grips, barkbusters and Honda 3 box luggage set.
Chain and sprockets replaced last year so plenty of life on them, Metzler z8 about half worn front and back.
Any questions give me a message.

Ooo, reveal yourself mystery person.
You must be very local if you recognise the road from these photos.

That looks like a great buy for the price. If I lived nearer I I would have seriously considered buying it.

No idea, there's a group of shiny Harleys that gather opposite the shop regularly though.
If you know the nooks and crannies of the fod, Maybe you could help @weeksy with finding the perfect location to move to 👍

Yep, I'll accept a decent offer that's above the PX price.

Didn't look much like it to me...then realised there's more than one Blakeney. :D

It really is.

Especially as I'll accept sub 2k. Make an offer and I really might accept it.
