Hey, just got my first bike -- 98 cbr600 f3
I just got my FIRST bike finally, only took me bout 3 years. Lol. Its a 98 CBR600 F3. Runs AMAZING, just needs fairings all the way around, but hey for 1100 aint a bad buy I don't think. Its been jetted and tuned with a Yoshi full pipe, not just the slip on. If anyone has any suggestions, comments, debates, or tips for me lemme kno.
Pieces I'm looking for if anyone knows a good hook up in central Florida -- (Tampa/Plant City-my home/Orlando/Daytona/etc)
Full or partial Fairings kit - Repsol kit, full black kit, or a mostly black kit
Front headlight unit
Clutch cover engine case left and right side of bike -- (Theres a very minimal scratch on it and I just want it to be pretty)
Frame sliders (black)
Left rearset shifter linkage (clutch linkage peg)
Right rearset (brake linkage peg)
Tail light
Front and back blinkers
Right side mirror
Thats about all that I can think of for now. Lol. Its all minor cosmetic **** except for the fairings.

Hey there, ICEmonky. Welcome aboard. Check EBay for those missing parts, might not be that plentiful for an older model but worth a try. Check with the guys in the f3 section of the forum here, maybe someone there can point you in the right direction. Also, check google for any motorcycle salvage yards in your area, you might find something there also. Good luck with your new ride/project!

I've already found plastics and ALL kinds of other **** on ebay, google, amazon, wherever. Thats what my first 2 hours consisted of before AND after getting her. Lol. Heres a couple more pics, and Im mos def gonna head over to the F3 section and get in there.
P.S. 2nd day of owning her and I already pushed her to 95....sshhhh, don't tell me girlfriend. Lol

Cool. Nice find and welcome to the forum. I recently got a F4 for a good deal also. Not my first bike but my first in 6 years. My last bike was an R1 and a CBR 1000f before that.
There are a few posts on here about where to get plastics. Just make sure they are ABS plastics whoever you go with (or stock of course).
