38 aint nothin' but a thang Henry! ;-) Welcome to CBRF!

Yep, sport bikes are dif riding than cruisers/dual sports/etc. Use the front brake! ;-) Most of your braking on a sport bike is up front.

You'll really enjoy your F3. If you need any help w/ repairs/mods, we've got the members here to help you.

Good to have you w/ us.
