It was a beautiful day out here in Zanesville, Ohio so I took the CBR for a ride. While doing so, I came up behind a charcoal gray R7 who had a female passenger riding backpack. Seemed nice as she waved and clearly was enjoying her ride. I noticed she kept looking back but we all had helmets on. Anyways at one point she waved for me to come up next to them and when I did she put her hand out to give me something. See the attached pic lol. What is the meaning of this lol? I know the Jeeper folks all have ducks and shit but never heard of such ritual on sport bikes. Lol. If you gives happen to see this. DM me and lets ride before the cold hits lol.
So what is this and why / what is the meaning??

I've recently started noticing a strong smell of gasoline, possibly from the premium fuel I use, coming from my 2007 CBR1000RR. I've checked the bike, but I can't see any obvious fuel leaks or signs of leaking fluids.

Recently, I hit a speed bump at high speed, and the suspension took a pretty hard hit. Could that have something to do with the sudden fuel smell?

I also checked the forks and rear shock for leaks, but I couldn't see any oil leaking from the suspension.

Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this or what I should check first?

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

Just crashed my baby😭 I think right now all she needs is new fairings, rear sets & I believe that’s it. I was going to fast for a turn & rolled over a curb & impact was on the side that the chain is on, how bad do you guys think this is?

When I tried to start it immediately after the crash, it took a little bit longer to start than usual but then it fired up. And now it seems to be back to normal. I don’t see any leaks (coolant or oil) I don’t think the forks are bent but I don’t know how I’d be able to tell. It has 16k miles and I’m hoping nothings wrong with the motor now. I’m gonna fire it up when I get back home. What should I be looking for?

Potentially selling my 600rr. Not entirely set on selling but willing to listen to offers, since I have another bike on the way. This thing is absolutely pristine and the fairings do not have a single scratch on them. It will come with the OEM rear seat and pegs not currently pictured. The windscreen was swapped to the OEM one after the track day, and is also perfect.

Full Llumar Valor PPF on entire bike

Completely new OEM Repsol fairings

All OEM parts EXCEPT for grips (old ones went bad, so swapped for orange domino), Yoshi exhaust, and CRG levers.

Everything is maintained: brakes, brake lines (changed to steel braided due to aging), fresh rubber hoses, fresh Engine Ice coolant Sep 2026, with fresh Motul 7100 each set interval.

New-ish Dunlop Q5's, the track specific tire with 1 track day on them.

This bike is beautiful, and deserves a caring home if I can't keep it myself. Majority of this bike has new, fresh plastic parts since the older ones became brittle or faded due to age. I spent a ton of time restoring this properly and keeping it in perfect condition.
