Didn't kill him Bob...he committed suicide.
The 1st CBF had the dreaded tps/ECU issue. Still have bike and need £1800 to fix.
L'Bob wouldn't charge the battery so checked it out and found the rectifier shot. Replaced it and then found alternator shot....wtf!! Replaced alternator and then the battery went. Replaced battery and the feckin rectifier went again.
Found after that on these CBF's and other Hondas that you need to replace alternator, rectifier and battery all at the same time if the rectifier or alternator go. If you only replace one part then the new good part screws the others.
After all that I was waiting for the dreaded tps issue to raise it's head on L'Bob. Couldn't feel that it was not going to let me down so had to sell it even though I loved it to bits.
SORRY BOB :'(

Those are my principles...if you don't like them I have others.
