Hello, I've been looking for a video like this for months! I too have a blown clutch line on my 2001 Blackbird. The bike shop wanted $120.00 for a replacement OEM, which is of a poor design. Thank you for showing where you routed the replacement line. I will order a HEL braided line.
hello mate,nice one as usual. i would love your opinion please, I have being looking for a blackbird the past days and the carburated model compared to the injection ones have a dif around 1000 euros.Do you think that if i go for a carburated model would be a compramize in general or I should be allright?Thank you, if you find your way here in Greece ,Ill be more then happy to meet and have some ouzo! 😂👍
Hi Mate, Nothing wrong with a carburated model they make more power than a FI model. a little bit! the FI model is a bit more refined in power delivery and the other big visual difference is the instrument cluster from analogue to digital? There are a couple of other engine mods on the later models but nothing to take away from the early models. So I gess its up to you there's no bad CBR1100 Blackbird. One more thing the FI would be much better if you use it in very cold /ice weather on start up! I have a very good friend in Australia who has a house in Greece handed down to her and my wife I are busting to come over and travel around your beautiful country. It might take a while now but it will stay on our radar when we can. So yes we will get that drink one day. take care my friend a get on a Blackbird. cheers Wayne.
@@livingwithbikes4778 Allright, I'm sure that a xx will be added to the fast fleet without my dear wife kicking my butt out of our home. 😂 The weather here can be cold in the winter but especially here in Athens, isn't so extreme. Thank you for the reply and I'll be more than happy to meet with you here and show you around along with plenty of Greek hospitality!
Hi Wayne I just ordered one to have as a spare from England, just wondering were I can get some brake pads front and rear? I ordered some of eBay from Qld and I’ve been waiting 5 weeks no tracking number? Regards George
