New here!
Wohoo!
Hey guys, lots of really nice bikes in here! This is my 2nd CBR, but this one is 3 generations newer .
I wanted a white/red one, but I couldn't pass this one up for $2900 (with jacket/helmet!).
13k miles, CCT replaced, Yoshimura carbon fiber TRS exhaust, Yoshimura EMS, new tires, new battery, etc. Did an oil change yesterday, so far I'm super happy with it! I just need to figure out how to adjust the chain so I can tighten it up a bit, I just degreased and scrubbed the chain down, and added fresh lube.
Is there anything I should check on the bike? I just did an oil change/filter, and with it straight up, it's barely above the top line, a few mm. I am assuming that is fine.
Brakes are in pretty good shape, and sprockets look halfway decent, still plenty of life left in them. I think i'm going to trim the license plate plastic piece to shorten up the rectangle underneath the plate.
I was thinking of getting some sliders, but I'm not too stoked on driling holes in the fairings, I just want to protect them encase I fall / drop it.
Had to paint the helmet to match, blue/black helmet didn't work

Vortex sliders. You need to order two parts, the bases and pucks. Lots of places have them, Google around for your favorite.
The headlight needs to have an aftermarket part, usually something like a headlight modulator or some other keyword like that. I personally have never looked into them because I think they're stupid. So I'm no help.
