Hi everyone,

Recently bought a 1997 CBR 600.

Its my second bike really and a bit of a project.

Not that I am mechanically minded so have lots of
inane questions to ask so please be patient.

Had a number of bikes and never really saw the point
of sporty bikes until now.
This thing flys and is so light its like riding a bmx.
My bandit 600 now seems slow and cumbersome.

Will take put some pics up soon.

 

welcome to CBRf

if the f3 feels light to you, you should sit on one of the newer cbrs. you should come and join our f3 group in quick links-social groups. we are always looking for new members.

 

Welcome aboard Ericck!

Congrats on getting your '97. There are many helpful members here that can help you get things sorted.

Glad you're w/ us.

 

Couple of pix

 

I like it!

Slap some new marine vinyl on that seat. ;-)

 

Yep it needs it, got gaffa tape on the seat and a bit in places
on the fairing.

For what I paid though can't complain.

Changed oil and filter, put on some new indicators, topped
up other fluids and replaced a few fairing bolts.

Been out on it again today and still can't stop grinning.

Still needs a bit of work, seat included but gonna ride it
for a while. Bound to get some ice and snow soon so will
give it some work then as don't ride if the roads are too
treacherous
