    Peeps I desperately need a good front end. IE forks or stantions would also love it if i could find a red front fairing or any fairing. Put my 98 bike back on the road today and I swear it is trying to do me in. It does not ride straight and slides on right hand corners. I would even be interested if someone had a rolling chassis for sale any thing to make it ridable again. Believe me it is a scary machine at present Not needed any more

    i don't know how bad it is pal but 

    check your rear wheel alinement, 
    check your forks are not bent,

    i crashed my cb last year (end over end in a field Sad )  and it turned out the crash just moved the forks in the yokes, took it apart and realigned everything and it was jobs a gooden, did need to replace a rear shock as it was snapped 

    in the video (linked below) i show checking my forks are straight, hope it helps 

    all the best matt

    That bike has been sold. The forks were pitted. Glad to see you are all right. I got a nice cb now and am very happy with it.
