Default Hello Everyone!

Hello everybody, I'm new here and figured I should make my first post in this section

I've just started riding and just recently bought a 2002 CBR600F4I. I'm currently having some issues, which I will probably post in another section.

I took the motorcycle course and haven't been out too much on my bike (because of the issues). I have rode it here and there though and am really excited to get out more.

I look forward to checking out this forum and hope I don't get bashed too hard for being a total n00b!

Welcome, Amy! You came to the right place to get your issues sorted out. I'm sure the F4i crew will help you.

Solid choice!! Sorry to hear about the issues - post on up in the F4i section as Trout said.

And lets see some pics of the new toy! and if you don't post pics no one will help you.

I posted the issue in the F4i section, so hopefully they can help me. Nothing sucks worse than being legally able to ride your bike, knowing how to ride your bike and you can't really ride it! It "kicks/jerks" at 4k rpm, so I've been riding around the neighborhood going below that. Which isn't bad, because it helps me learn to handle the bike better.

You guys said pictures, so I'll post this corny one my bf took of me, I'm really excited!
