Default Giving in and joining a forum

Hey guys,

You can call me J

Every vehicle Ive ever owned in my own name has been a 4 cylinder Honda and Ive loved every one!

Im only 21 years old but dont think Im unexperienced. I learned to drive on my cousins modified 1994 Z-28 6-speed when I was 13 years old and my first street bike was a 1999 R-1 purchased by myself and a friend when I was 16-- and wrecked by my friend about 6 months later.

About 2 years ago I bought my cb650(not running) and began working on it. After about a month I had it running but the restoration and tuning is an ongoing process. I love my CB, but shes got wayyy too much attitude for an everyday bike and even with the mods she just cant go as fast as I wanted to.

Then came my CBR... A 2006 silver 1000RR. And shes everything I hoped she would be and more.

I joined a CB forum a while ago to get some help with working on mine. At first I didnt see the point to a CBR forum since they are mostly newer bikes and dont require nearly as much(if any) tinkering as the old CB's, but then I began to realize how much more than tech tips the forum was.... Ive had such a great time sharing stories and helping people out with CBs that I decided I had to get on here too.

So here I am.

J

Thanks for the welcome!

As for pictures, my camera broke(theres actually a post about that on the open CB forum) and the only ones I have now are of my 97 accord and the CB650.

I'll get some of the CBR when I find out whats wrong with my camera. Its nothing special right now... just a stock Silver 1000rr.

J
