Dear My Friends!
My beautiful pearl-white 2009 1000RR was totaled last week. Fortunately I am OK, or at least my soul and my hearth is in worse condition than my body.
An unaware al man was driving a suv who turned in front of me without giving me free way. I wanted to avoid the cras, but as another car was coming towards me in the opposite line, I couldn't do anything, just hit the back of the car while tried to steer clear.
So I hit it with the middle part of my bike, so footpegs broke, I hit my ankle very hard. Bike seems not that bad from the outside, but it is not the same bike as it was before as it feels it runs on two lanes, so there could be some serious frame or suspension damage.
It seems to me I won't be able and I wouldn't sit on that bike again, so I would problably need to buy another one.
Problems starting here, as in my small country there are only a few CBR SC59s are for sale. Most of them very-very overpriced, while the others could have been in a worse state than mine now.
(I was searching my bike for about three months, while at last I found a perfect, mint, serviced CBR which also had got the factory recall for the crank).
Now I am looking for probably a REPSOL, but I don't know what is the oil burning, crankcase recall situations with Repsol.
The three Repsols which are for sale at the moment in my country (they are all at least 500km away from me are all 2009-2010 models, so hopefully they are a little bit more trusty than it would be a 2008 model.
Here is also one more option- a 2011 model Tricolour HRC edition SC59, which was first registrated in 2014, so factory guarantee only overs in this May. So hopefully it would be a better choice than a 2009-2010 Repsol. It has got only 10.000 kms, and some of my friends knows the 45 years old owner as well, so this bike seems clean and reliable.
I just couldn't get over with this kind of Tricolor paintwork.
This 2011 tricolours are not with golden wheels, but white ones, and the most part of the bike is blue and red, not mainly white.
Somehow for me these colours give the bike a 1992 feeling, I don't know white.
Now I will have to choose if I would go for a cool factory repsol bike which has got an unknown past for me, or go for the one that is a realieble, fresh, almost new bike, but a little bit weird painting
Help me please, what do You think about this rare HRC color CBRs?
Thanks!
