Default new to the 'cane

Hello there...

So I am new to the wonderful world of the hurricane...the last bike I had was 5 years ago. A VFR800, which I should never had sold...a 919 before that so I have a liking for Hondas..I decided because of the gas prices to get another bike and came across this 91 CBR1000F at a local bike shop on consignment. It is immaculate with 9076 miles, one owner...just serviced, new battery new rubber front and back..so I popped on it. I am very pleased so far. I haven't run her out much yet, still scuffing the tires, but I think it was well worth the money.

So here i am on y'alls forum hailing from Southwest VA.

Welcome shilowar! The itch had to scratched again eh? You've found a good bike to do that with. Comfy and sedate when you want, crack the throttle fully open to redline in the first three or four gears and they really get cracking! Nice and secure when the weather turns bad too.

Default New To THe CBRs

Hi guys, just acquired a 1993 CBR 1000f. I love it so far. I am finding it hard to find accessories for it. If anyone has any sites they go to I would appreciate the info. I love the bike so far but would love even more to have more power.
