Default Hey from a new rider

So i just bought a 1992 cbr 600 f2 this weekend, and subsequently crashed it i think due to improper braking and counter-steering technique in a bend. I am still looking to improve my skills and am hoping to learn from this experience. I just want to stop in and say what's up before i start attacking you guys with questions on how to fix my bike that i crashed

Hey whats up Freek

Huge congrats on the purchase - and very sorry to hear you put her down.

Have you taken an MSF safety class? If not I would highly suggest you do asap. It will really help you out and teach you all the basics that you need to build upon.

Anyways post on up in the F2 section for some specific help with your rebuild / repair.

Good to hear you're back on the horse. Many riders have a drop or low speed accident & never ride again. Hang in there & ride your own ride. Welcome to the forum.
