CBR 900 Blade project
Hi all, I start my first project ever and probably the last, who knows. It's start before few months when i look for CBR 900 '96 year and no luck until one day i get offer for '98 cbr fireblade that i couldnt let it go. So I start dissasmbly it until last bolt on it (I have about over 300 pictures taken) and i will put only few pictures for now where I'm now with it.
When i buy it
And it start, a lot of cleaning (probably not cleaned from year when it come out from factory) changing every bearing that was not good, still waiting for gaskets
And then a lot of calls, pm messages on forums, mails, etc. until i get the vfr swing arm that i needed, and then again every bolt picture, lot of cleaning, complete front fork repair (will have them until i get another USD forks with radial calipers, still looking for them) and this is where I end now
Tail is finished started working on fairings below seat and the seat as i couldnt find original so decide on this move, and i started the motor after few months when i start on project what i was little scared that it will not

last two weeks didnt do anything on it, a lot of other things to do so didnt have much time, today I succesfully mount tyre on car rim with a lot of troubles and very close to give up and sell tyre and rim, but it's mounted and this is the last big detail that i need to finish.Here is the image of mounted rim
After long time what i didnt do anything because of my job, i decide to finish project and what i saw when i remove cover from bike that paint start fall off from frame, after first shock i decide to start again, first of all i dissasmble the whole bike and then start to search for company that can remove all paint with sand blast, now is all parts at painting and waiting for them to start from zero again, images at bottom will show what happend
