Whats up everyone.. Just got my first street bike a few months ago. Its a 98 CBR600F3. Almost got talked into a Gixxer but have always had good luck with honda off road bikes in the past. Its a little beat up pretty much needs new plastics, right side clip on is bent so the throttle is a little sticky and some minor stuff like bolts. Only mods so far are a freshly painted gas tank, some turn signals and it had a two brothers exhaust. zip ties are holding alot together lol so its a work in progress.
But my names Shawn and I hope to meet alot of other riders with some good advice and info

The bike looks like the last owner took good care of it at a glance, fantastic bike, BTW. Ever in need of a question just ask and don't hesitate to jump in a convo either.

Hi There

I ordered plastic from hong kong. i found him on ebay, he had the best prices. after talking to him about what i was looking for, we started talking outside of ebay, he custom painted them for me and threw in a tinted windshield + extra decals. I was nervousas hell, cuase it seemed to do to be true, but it worked out beautifully.
I figure with the shipping i still saved money then having my old plastic painted.

Welcome to the club. I hope you have a great paying job, cuz moding out bikes can get a lil' pricey! especially on our bikes because of the age. It's becoming alot harder to find things for them. Ebay will be your best bet and your best friendHave fun, good luck, and ride safe.

welcome. your fairings dont look bad at all. It might just be the picture though.[&:]Just remember our bikes are over 10 years old.Fairings can be pricey unless you get a killer deal on them.
