Default Hello World

Well im not new to the forum, but I am a new 94 CBR F2 owner. I havent rode in about 10 years and was looking to get back on the 2 wheels. So i found a FUGLY F2 for sale cheap and decided to go ahead and take the plunge. Bike definitely needs a lot of work, previous owner wasnt very nice to her. So i came along and saved her. Going to do a lot of work to her and get her road ready and do a few upgrades. So just decided to say hi all and hope i enjoy the F2.

Welcome back, sir!

You probably already know this, but the F2 IS an incredible machine, and hopefully the previous owner didn't treat it so badly that it's beyond recovery!

How much did you score it for, and with how many miles?

I would recommend posting in the F2 area, but I just saw that you did already... keep us posted on your progress!

hi and welcome to the forum and back to 2 wheels , you wont be disapointed with the f2, make sure you get over to the f2 section to say hello and maybe start a thread of your work, get some pics up of the old girl (you can use photobucket)

F2's are tanks. It shouldn't give you too much trouble getting her back to tip-top riding condition.
