Default Hello fellow CBR riders.

I purchased yesterday my first CBR after being away form road bikes for 10 years. Motocross bikes filled the void so I didn't exactly go without my bike fix. Here's a photo of my '98 CBR600F. I still miss my GSXR600 but the CBR is much more practical and honestly, I think the build quality is a lot higher than the suzuki.

All black - looks very sharp!

Cool to hear you've gone with the Honda. Welcome to the site.

Guessing by the "Direct Air Induction" decal, the 600F and the pics of what looks like warm weather you're somewhere across the pond from me on the frozen East Coast

So welcome aboard and where ya hailing from?

I'm in south east Queensland, Australia people's. It's been raining non stop today so I've stripped her down for a bit of a look. I took off the gearsack rack mount bars and cut down the plastic number plate holder. Shops aren't open here today so I'll get a filter and oil tomorrow. Wouldn't mind doing the brake fluid and fork oil while I'm at it.

Here's the other side.



Here's after I cut the number plate support and removed the bars for the gearsack rack.

As you see, I drive a Honda as well. Ha, my MX bike is a Honda and so is my lawn mower.

Cutting down the Tail looks MUCH better

Nice job.
