Talking Hello Brothers

Hey everyone just thought I should drop a few lines in this section. I have used this site as a reference point on alot of my projects. I just never got around to posting but seems like a close nit community which is what Im looking for. Well where to start. I have a CBR 600 F4 2000. Ive had alot of bikes currently I have an R1 as well its 07. However, I have to say that my CBR is my baby lol. I used to take my bikes into shops but they started over charging me. So thats when I taught myself everything about my cbr lol i love the fact that that its not fuel injected makes everything easier to work on in my opinion. But i guess im getting away from main point. Here is a list of mods I have on my CBR
-Yoshimura full exhaust
-Hotbodies Undertail
-Stage 1 Jet kit
-Custom Billet Engraved Cbr Black Spike Handgrips
-K&N Air filter
-Integrated led taillight
-Multi-Color and Function Accent Light Kit
I have others but they are minor like full fairing and windscreen blue spike setup. Well bike is blacked out with blue pegs, spikes, clutch and brake lever, shift lever, rear brake, gas cap. Well just thought i would introduce myself I will post pictures soon.

Welcome aboard Brandon!

I have a 2000 F4 as well (w/ split-seat conversion)...great bikes. Sounds like some nice mods. Yep, working on your own bike gives you satisfaction of doing it yourself, as well as saving a lot of money over labor costs from the shops.

Glad you joined up. Come on over to the F4 section & post up a pic of your ride.

Welcome!
Sounds like you have a handle on the mods... I'm sure it looks and rides great, can't wait to see it.
So on to stuff about you... Where are you located and how long have you been riding?

Yeah GotCbr thanks takes alittle time but for half the price i would rather do the work myself. Well from San Diego but when i got out of Marines I moved to Arkansas. Ive been riding for about 4 1/2 years or so maybe alittle more lol. I love my bikes and thats all there is to it. I go to bike night with my club everything Thursday at Hooters lol. Other than that I want to do that split seat conversion but lol seems difficult will have to do alot more research on it but thanks again for the welcome guys.

Gotcbr has all the info you need to do the conversion in his signature.

In the meantime, come join us in the picture challenge thread. (Link in my sig)
Then go to the ride of the month voting thread and vote, every month!

The split-seat conversion is very straight-forward & not difficult...especially w/ my tutorial (see link in my sig-line). ;-) When/if you decide to do the conversion, if you need any help - please let me know.
