First bought my 06' VTX 1300 cruiser back in July of 2020 for my 42nd birthday. I immediately caught the bikers bug and wanted to start purchasing project bikes to start learning how to work on them and resell for a profit. That is when I ran into my 98' CBR 900RR FIREBLADE. I had every intention of selling the bike... but after I had dropped the VTX 1300... I started riding the FIREBLADE and immediately fell in love.
After I fell in love with my 98 Fireblade, I began wanting to enhance its quality. The bike runs like a beast but has some cosmetic issues. I began searching on line for some of the fairing mounts that was missing, and found pretty much what I needed... along with a bunch of other odd and ends for spare parts. Just found an excellent mechanic to help me with the partial restore, because the bike doesn't need a complete overhaul. I can't wait to see what it looks like when I'm done. Should be ready in April or May.
My cbr 918 1999 ive had from new out the shop,id never get rid of it ,i love it and always have, i can see why you love them too. Keep safe ,keep on the black stuff.
Great video, got the same one as the turbo model you're building. This bike is a legendary one, with it's history pedigree and of the designer Baba as well.
Proud owner of 99 sc33 and previously owner of an cbr 900 rr from 96 tiger urban back in my younger days..it's and it was a blast the engine... Never give me any headeaks love it..
Very nice indeed, love the turbo build!! Have a cbr900RR myself with RSV swinging arm and tuned motor spent far too much on it but just something about them :) Now toying with putting in a cbr1000RR engine :)
Hey Ben, it is what people consider to be high kms on a bike, but it really just depends on who owned it, how it was ridden and how well they maintained it. It's hard to say without seeing the bike, but I guess the first things you'd want to look and listen for is excessive cam chain noise, but that's still not a huge problem. If anything the higher km might give you a bit more bargaining power.
@@HoonTV haven't checked them out honestly. I should, would like to see how my old girl compares. Everyone i have raced said there is no way that old bike is stock. Said it is as fas as i know lol
Yeah should be ok, I just had a look and I've got a stock 98 rim with a 190/50/17 on it that was on a bike when I got it and I've run the same size on these bikes before. Pretty sure the track bike is 190/60/17, will have to double check for you
I have had so many 900rr's ! Loved everyone , currently I have a 929rr . I would much rather be on a carb'd 900 , less twitchy attitude in the throttle then this angry 929 . nice vid man
929 was my first bike and they're nasty ass bikes. Comfort wise best bike i've ever sat on, motor had plenty in it but just wanted something newer so got an 07 1000rr. I might have a pic of it on my google somewhere.
Hi. I AM PREPARING A CBR 900 RR FOR CIRCUIT. JA MADE SOME ALTERATIONS. I WANTED TO MAKE MORE CHANGES BUT I LIKED IDEAS FROM WHO HAVE ALREADY HOPE WITH THIS MODEL. CAN YOU GIVE AN IDEAS,.? THANKS . YOUR MOTHER SEEMS TO BE VERY GOOD.
Hey mate nice bikes! I have a trick question about different CBR’s fairings and headlights. Would a SC28 front faring twin round headlights fit on a SC59?
I own cbr 600f 97 and cbr 1100xx 99 superblack bird...my next superbike will be cbr 900rr 97 or 954...but i prefer cbr 900rr carburator...i think this bike is ore simple to fix or other else....i live in 90' yet....kkkkk...i don't want to grow up...sorry my english...
Hello, just discovered your RUclips site and wow, I had no idea there are people like you that exists. I have a 1999 Honda CBR 900RR in stock form with very few modifications. I would like to continue tracking the bike but having a difficult time finding tires for the 16 inch front. I currently use Bridgestone s21's but would like something better. In your opinion, do you think going to a 17 inch front is better and if you have done it, do you have instructions that really spell out in how to do it? Thank in in advance.
I live in Brazil and would like your help as a cbr. in 2019 with which I will be happier, a 900 year 98/99 or a 929, or a 954, or a 1000? I love all of them, but always an update makes me think if the carburet is still worth it, if it will not bring problems and high consumption of gasoline. I also think that a 2005 CBR 600 forward might be smarter because it already has 120 horsepower and 8 injector nozzles. My profile is going strong on weekend roads. Thank you. hug
@@HoonTV Thank you for your attention! Certainly with any of them I will be well served! They all walk a lot, they are similar ... in the end what counts is the passion for the machine, its appearance and history! hug
Are the 98 Blades as good as the 93's ?. I used to have a 93 streetfighter over 25 years ago in England. Want to build another now. There is a really nice 98 for sale. Wondering if they are easily put back to 93 performance. Not interested in top end
Hi question. I just bought new RUBBER intake boots for my 97cbr900rr the boots are oem and 16211 mas E00. It said 93-99. I cannot get it to fit with ir without clamps tride Vaseline i looked online They also list another part# 16211 mwo 000. Its from 93-97. Im confused. The old boots suck the carbs right on and tight. New boots dont. If you think there seated and on. Its nothing like old boots. You are not supposed to b able to pull carbs off with one finger. Cant do that WITH older boots. Help?
Love the Bladerod! :-D Nice to see someone having all that passion for the Blade. I own a 954 for a week and i think its a pretty and powerfull bike but it has has a noisy engine but someone said that is a part of the Blade. (came from a Yamaha Thundercat) Can anyone tell me how to remove the swingarm axle?
Razor Blade depends on the exhaust. Ideally a jet kit and air filter upgrade will combat the extra exhaust flow. In saying that though if you have a dyno tuning shop near you that's the best option
Sam Husson hey Sam it was really a bit of a personal preference thing. In saying that though most people do a 17-inch wheel conversion for handling and ease of finding tyres to fit

I live my 97 cbr 900rr. Beautiful handling and speed performance....will not get rid of her for anything!
Had my CBR 1998 RRW, from new, still got it. Best bike I ever have or will ever own.
I’m a new rider. I have a 1999 Honda CBR900RR. It’s an awe inspiring machine.
I just got my first bike and its a 93 cbr 900rr. I cant wait to tear up my little town with it. Its almost 100% stock and was built from the frame up.
My cbr 918 1999 ive had from new out the shop,id never get rid of it ,i love it and always have, i can see why you love them too. Keep safe ,keep on the black stuff.
I miss my `95 FireBlade. It was a piece of history. These bike (900,929) are legends.
I hope the new owner hasn't crashed it.
I can't wait to have my 900RR in the near future. I love the look of these 90's bikes.
I think changing out the 16 inch is a mistake. I have a 94 and love the quirky 16. Granted tire choice is limited but the Bridgestone is a good tire.

I own two CBR900RR's and almost bought third. Its addictive :) Keep up the good work Boxer!!!
I bought a 900 today it was cheap and it needs a lot of tlc,will post some pictures,love from East Yorkshire England!🤟
Its definitely an addiction. I'm on my second one and it looks like the first one I had but with 4400 miles on it. 900RR or nothing.
Very nice indeed, love the turbo build!! Have a cbr900RR myself with RSV swinging arm and tuned motor spent far too much on it but just something about them :) Now toying with putting in a cbr1000RR engine :)

Love the cbr 900 rr. Got almost 70000 Km's on mine and she still pulls like a beast. Take a look at my videos with my old lady 900.
My first bike is a 96 cbr 900rr. I agree, it's a great bike. Comfortable (for me) plenty of power and still looks great in 2017. 🙌Honda
And still have it in 2020, still runs great. Still eating showbikes
That’s awesome. Just on Facebook, there’s some great 900RR groups

Please, more videos like this !
hows the 808 in the background in one of those photos. what happened to it?
What kind of fairings are used on the track bike in this video. Looking to turn my 98 blade into my track bike in the near future!

Good source for replacement oem plastics for the 900RR?
Hey mate nice bikes!
I have a trick question about different CBR’s fairings and headlights.
Would a SC28 front faring twin round headlights fit on a SC59?
To be honest, I think it’d be able to be done, but you’d need to fabricate a new front fairing stay
Great video
Nice Bike!!

What was the reasonable budget for the blade rod
I own a '01 929, hard for me to find aftermarket parts (full exhaust, etc.) anymore since its 14 years old.
good video,keep up the good work
this makes me want my cbr back, great story brutha :)

Yep, I do all my own stuff
Do you need to do anything in particular when fitting a new exhaust can or is it a matter of simply attach and drive??
Razor Blade depends on the exhaust. Ideally a jet kit and air filter upgrade will combat the extra exhaust flow. In saying that though if you have a dyno tuning shop near you that's the best option
