Default My new bike!

Just wanted to share that I went to pick up my f3 today! It's my first bike, I bid on it on eBay last week, picked it up at the dealership today. We had to unload it on a slope so my poor boyfriend had to ride it the couple of blocks to the garage in the snow and slush and cold. If the roads had been clear I totally would have been on it today.

It's a 98, red and black, less than 6000 miles. There is a crack in the tail and it needs a new front tire, but it's the nicest bike I've seen for the price. Paint is nearly perfect, looks awesome. They said that a 50 or so year old guy traded it in, he only rode it once in a while and looks like he babied it like crazy. I don't wanna take the time to do photobucket or whatever, but there are a couple quick pics in my album.

I'm going to take the tank bra off, put an integrated taillight on and a smoke windscreen on, and we're gonna look into getting some new decals done. So you won't hear any more "how much would you pay for this" posts, but I'm sure there will be plenty more questions and input from me . Hope no one minds...

Well congratulations... I'm sure this week seemed to just drag on so slowly for you. We'll expect to see and hear much more from you in the near future.

Sounds like you know exactly what you want to do with it! Have fun!
