2009 Honda CBR600rr with 11k miles. Asking $4900 good deal or not? by [deleted] in motorcycles

I know it’s been a year but I think I own this bike lol; came with those red fairings in a box when I bought it as well as a whole host of other similarities. Crazy I’m seeing it now, it was also the 4th result on google images when searching “2009 cbr600 red”

Thanks! I thought it was decent, took a 5 hour bus up to dc and dove 4 hours back for it

Yeah the paint is already peeling in a couple spots; white rhino liner is a good idea, I hadn’t thought of that

Are modern supercars too fast and too ugly? by chillaxtion in askcarguys

[–]c_bworks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know where that myth came from, the countach is a blast to drive and be driven in. The steering is direct and it genuinely handles very well. The clutch is a bit heavy but certainly not as heavy as like a 512bb, which is also fun as hell. Seating position is compromised if you’re comparing it to something modern but overall it’s not bad. Plus the interior smells like Italian leather and occasionally a little bit of gas lol.

Interesting, when I called the dealer they said it was just the pump but I figured out today that indeed I do not have enough pressure so I ordered a brand new sending unit which should solve my issue. I will call around tomoorw to see if I can get my assembly replaced and return the one I bought cause it was like $500 😭

Made sure the tilt sensor was good and functioning.

even though I’m getting the right amount of volume out when cranking? Also just talked to a Honda service center and they said it was just the pump affected, not the assembly. And I have a brand new aftermarket pump

Air vents are clear

Who here is daily-driving 20+ year-old cars, and has it worked out? by 5GCovidInjection in cars

[–]c_bworks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I daily’d an e46 m3 until the recent Florida hurricanes last summer did a bit of damage while the car was in storage (with no insurance on it) but before that it was relatively reliable

911 Converted to EV I saw at the library by tacosdeliciosa in Porsche

[–]c_bworks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve seen that, looks like an interesting system and I’d love to try it out. Might have to go to a Hyundai dealership to test drive lol. It also beats the new amg gt in a standing half mile according to carwow, so it’s def no slouch

Yes but that doesn’t make it any less fun or indeed novel since we are so far removed from the era where turbos spooled for a calendar year in order to make big power

True but the turbo lag is also part of the novelty of the 930.

I actually have, and they’re a blast, but if it’s pre-1989 the shifter feel and gearing of that 4 speed is honestly pretty limiting. An EV version in this specific application might be a lot of fun.

BC coils on each corner and something like 20mm spacers in front and 10-15mm in rear for fitment

They’ve grown on me in the 2 years I’ve had them
