Just for anyone that's considering one of these!?!..... Having seen the stupid price Honda are charging for the 2018 CBR1000RA rear seat cowl I decided to give one of ebay CHINESE sellers a chance!?!....... So purchased one at 27 quid and knowing it would take upwards of 4 weeks to arrive, plus fully prepared for it to go in the bin if turned out to be a total disaster!..... Anyway, from China the tracking info was spot on, every movement shown, until it gets to the UK then it's anybodies guess!?!..... So today it arrived!!!..... At first glance it appears we'll made and the right colour, well close enough and good enough! I'm sure a genuine one is of better quality but hey i ain't paying 200 plus notes for one!!! Now to see if it fits!?!.....Answer is... YES it does, perfectly!!! And looks the mutts nuts too! So if any of you are wandering are they any good and do they fit properly? Then fear not yes they do!!!......Just be prepared to wait a few weeks for delivery. Cheers Andy
Happy days ! I don’t mind a punt at some of the Chinese offerings and in fairness they have always been good enough for me. Some of the pricing of genuine parts or bling bits is awful. I once swore in shock at a Honda dealers counter and as I genuinely apologised to the guy next to me at the counter her laughed and said “don’t worry mate, that’s exactly what I was thinking”….. yes it’s a gamble but careful searching and good checks give some hope when you press the buy now button.
I'd like to get a set of fairings for my '14, I'm kinda partial to the original '92 blade colours, or the RC30/RC45 colours. Any recommendations?
No idea how to do links as I'm over 50 Sellers name is..... newfacebook and item number is..... 255270823808 He/she/they do other colours if you check their listing.
Do you mean over 90? I know plenty of 70 year-olds that can 'internet' just fine. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/255270823808
@Coda .......maybe so but I spend more time playing on the blade in real life than cruising and navigating the virtual world of the Web.
I'm saying you don't need an excuse to not know how to do something, nobody knows everything. It's just ok for you to say 'I don't know how to do links' instead of furthering age-related stereotypes.
Woke because I said you were discriminating against age? Hardly. I'm about the same age as you. And your name is Animal, so who's the muppet?
@Woke Muppet.... Wah, wah, wah! Get over yourself snowflake and put ya BIG girls pants on!?!..... If you read the post, I do not refer to ALL people over 50!... I simply stated I was over 50!?! But YOU wanted to make an issue of it being an age thing!?! Jeez get a life dude, go ride your bike doo something worthwhile with what little time you have left, other than nit pick at what others post!!! Sad, very sad!?!....Me I'm DONE on this one!!!
Well, as someone who is 15 years older than Methuselah and still getting my leg over (the Bike) and is in no way intellectually challenged - by anyone less than 5 years old - I'll shove my oar in here and ask why I can't ever get my pics to transfer to this site. I can drag ones here to other sites like Whatsapp but anything from my photos just won't stick here. So advice from you teenagers is welcome. signed O. Fart
Ok i will come out of retirement for this as it's too easy!?!.... @snowflake....Argh taking the moral high ground with the "Holier than thow" stance!?! Especially after being the one to fling mud first, a bit like hiding behind your mums skirt after throwing a stone through the neighbours window!?! But kind of says the type of person you are if this is ALL you took from that post!?! Obviously we missed "Get a life!"..."Sad, very sad!"....."Go doo something worthwhile!"..... As for the individual that "DISAGREED!" With an earlier post ....... ......You won't mind me SHARING my thought that "You're a TWAT!" then!?!.... Being unintelligent i tend to SWEAR too!!! So i will leave it to you Yoda, Skoda, Soda or whatever your name is to have the last word as i distinctly feel this is how infantile you will be???
Presuming you're using your phone, the easiest way I find is to take a screenshot of the picture you want to upload first then upload the screenshot. Screenshots reduce the file size and are always under the limit of what this website requires so you should be good. Not sure what phone you're using but there's always a shortcut for taking screenshots to make it easier.
Thank for that advice Charlie. My problem is that most of my pics are saved on my laptop, . Windows 11. I can pull them onto the CBR page but they simply say "can't upload". Funny as it works on other sites I've used. I'll try what you suggest and see if that helps for any pics I've got on my phone It's an iPhone 8S.
For pictures on your PC open them with paint, pick Resize from the top left of the ribbon and change % to 50 and do a Save As. Then try to upload the file
