Damaged cb900 hornet

[FROSTY]

Folks I bought a damaged cb900 hornet recently its travelled 12000km
The damage is
Bent fork tubes
busted radiator
bent bars--Ive got a new set for it
busted tacho.
Small dings in tank
Broken front brake lever.
It has LIVE registration .
Its pretty clear to me I don't have the time to fix it.
It owes me $4000
Anybody interested come have a looksee
I would concider a swap for a bike of the same value or a trade in if you have a cheaper bike

The stains on the concrete underneath are not from the bike

[Mully]

What's needed (minimum) to put it back on the road?

Forks (fixable or are they knackered?)
Radiator
Brake lever

Everything else seems cosmetic, yes??

Be quick if you think the forks could be the same ????

[Trouser]

600 hornets have a 41mm fork and 900s have a 43mm fork.

I'll give him $20 - and even let him store it in his garage until I get the money to get it fixed. And I might even let him give me direction on how to fix it; maybe even going so far as to let him help me.

its a wee bit of a ride from eketahuna frosty

[FROSTY]

forks are out of the bike but pics will be up shortly

[FROSTY]

THinking about it If anyone is keen on a trade or swap I'd be interested
Maybee someone wants a cheap late model bike

[ducatilover]

id swap my spada if i could find all the parts for the cb900 and fix it myself.

are the forks repairable?

[FROSTY]

are the forks repairable?
Yes and no--the chromes are getting straightened but ONLY to push the bike around as they are both creased at bottom of steering head so NOT for riding on. The lowers are untouched and Im not sure about the innards

I will have a look to see what models used a 43mm fork:niceone:

[ducatilover]

the cbr600 f4 onwards used a 43mm fork. but i cant find any second hand chromes for the cb or cbr grrr

might have to keep the f*ckin spada

[FROSTY]

bikebusters have a wrecked 600 --$750 for rad and complete front end -tripples forks etc

[ducatilover]

still very tempting, just have to think about if im a fuckwit on a bike or not.:dodge:

[mnkyboy]

I'm fairly tempted by this - I'm reasonably sure my 250 would be a suitable swap.

But then i'd be riding a honda.

Racetechs will make all the difference to this bike. Trust me on this.

advert updated with pictures.

[ManDownUnder]

If RF900 forks fit the thing I have a pair hanging in my shed someone can grab. I'll measure them tonight... if I remember.

One is chewing out seals, but nothing sandpaper and a bit of epoxy won't fix.

[vifferman]

2002+ VFRs have 43mm forks.

[FROSTY]

the fork legs on this bike arent super long ones as you expect in a nekid

folks Im going to have to bung this on TM
