Finally, my own CBR 600 f3...
 
I am Jim. Resident in Trondheim, Norway. Bought my first motorcycle
last summer. 1996 cbr 600 f3. This is the bike I always wanted when I was younger, so when an opportunety knocked I bought one. I`m now 40 years old, but its still a blast to take my cbr for a spin on some twisty norwegian roads. I will try to post some pictures of my bike. Just need to shrink them first. I have done a few minor changes to make it look and function better. BMC airfilter, Carboncan without baffle. Got rid of the all to large turnsignals, and now have turnsignals integrated in the mirrors. Preload adjuster for the fork, carbondetails on instruments, and crown.
Seatcowl, doble-bubble windshield, rimtape, Pro-bolt bolts on fairing.
Its sounds great and works perfectly. Pictures will arrive as soon as I get
hold of Photoshop.
Cheers Jim:)

Hello Jim, congrats on the bike. Sounds like it's kept you busy performing mods to it. I'm 37 years of age and picked mine up last year, so don't be thinking these bikes are for 20 year olds. We're young enough to ride them like they're meant to be, but mature enough to not do stupid things on them (usually, lol).
Welcome to the Forum :)
