Default Newbie from the UK

Hi from the UK,

I am relatively new to the biking world and brand new to the bigger bikes having only gained my full licence a couple of months ago. I have a CBR600 FX, which has 16k on the clock and in decent condition. At 42yrs old I totally regret not joining the biking world before now. Looking forward to getting advice from those with similar bike.
I will be looking for advice straight away regarding the throttle cables.

Welcome to the forum Jambojonny.

Like you I'm in the UK and also came late to the biking scene.

I did my direct access about 9 years ago, also in my 40's at the time, actually edging edging towards 50, but I was determined to get my license before getting to that point!

I bought a 1991 CBR1000F, for my first bike and she has been a good bike, reliable and solid and I'm sure with good maintenance your bike will be too.

Lots of help on here, just give us a shout.

Welcome to CBRF! I hope you enjoy your bike. Throttle cables are generally an easy fix
