Default Hi!! 99 Fireblade

Hello Everyone. I recen tly purchased a lovely 1999 Fireblade. I've been in love with all cbrs for years, and I finally found the perfect one back home in Puerto Rico and is underway right now back to Louisiana where I live. Its a Canadian edition, (so its in kph) with only 15000 km on it (roughly 9600 m?). Anyway, looking foward to hanging out here for advice and help when needed. Here's a pic of when I bought it. Comments are welcome. Later guys and girls.

Awesome! I'm in NOLA. I need good riding buddies as I only have one freind with a V-Star. I'm really laid back, and alot of the kids around here look to be a bit too rowdy if you know what i mean.

That's a sharp lookin bike! I wish I were closer because I have trouble finding people to ride with around here too, a lot of them ride their bikes faster than any sane person I know would .

Welcome to the forums, blade!
That is cool that you're getting a blade brought in. I've only ever seen one fireblade in the states and it happened to be a few miles from my house. I think it was yellow and blue (or purple, maybe?).
Very cool looking bike, though.

If you're looking for people to ride with, check out the regional section.... you may be surprised.

Anyway, congrats on the bike, and ride safe!!

Thank you so much guys. I am very fortunate to have the bike!

Yesterday it got picked up at my Dads house in P.R. and is supposed to be on the boat this afternoon on the way to Florida.

At first i was scared that it being a differant market bike the DMV wouldnt let me register it in the US. Apparently, the previous owner was able to register it in Vermont so its all good.

Thanks again for all the love!
