Guest Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Hello everyone Here is my 2007 Honda 500 CBF.I've owned it 2 month ago. I am the 4th owner. The previous owner bought it 2 years ago to a lady. He made the administration's steps to convert the bike for young drivers (A2 driving licence).So, the V5 is ok for young drivers, but the bike has a free engine. The guy gave me the parts to flange it as it should be.He also gave me that flyscreen and a leather tank cover. He also repaint the exaust, but the paint is coming of and a surface rust is appearing. 2 dents are noticeable on the tank.I envisage to repaint the exhaust before having my licence, or during winter.http://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2015/19/1431267384-dscf2694.jpghttp://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2015/19/1431267383-dscf2705.jpghttp://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2015/19/1431267385-dscf2702.jpghttp://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2015/19/1431267387-dscf2698.jpghttp://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2015/19/1431267388-dscf2774.jpgAs a kid, I can't stop to put my nose and hands everywhere ...The next step will be an Union Jack's sticker on the tank for protecting of the scratches... And perhaps a british registration plate's style ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Hiyaa !!Here are some news of the bike, well, bad and good ones...The good one : I've found a rear fender in great condition, from a 900 Hornet. Just need to adapt it for the screws and it will be perfect. The color is matt black, it will look stock The bad point now... I've repaint the manifold. I've found a paint durable to 1200° Celsius. It has been sanded, washed, prepared and paint as it should be. 6 days after the paint job, I've put it on the bike. I've started the bike and what happened ? Blebs and a huge smoke have appeared .I don't understand what happened... I've done that on truck's manifold without that problem, the result was quite good, and didn't changed with time and extrem heating. I think the compressor had condensation inside Well, how to destroy many hours of work I'll watch it during the next days. If someone know a way to fix it, I'll listen it Pictures soon...Have a nice evening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
