Introduction
Hi all. I'm Scott "Zachsdad" from NJ. I just picked up my first bike, a 93 600f2. I love it. I have been spending time reading a lot of the posts, and am excited to dig into my bike. I'm sure I will have a ton of noob questions. Looking forward to learing from all of you.

Welcome to CBRF!
Congrats on getting your F2. Glad you are enjoying it. :-)
No prob w/ questions... Ask as many as you need. There's a learning curve on doing your own maintenance but once you dig into it, you'll be fine. Get a copy of the shop manual & familiarize yourself w/ it. You can learn a lot just by reading it over a few times. Then, when there is a prob, you'll have a good idea where to look in the manual for help. If you need something clarified or need more specific help, just ask.
Settle in & enjoy the forum.

Welcome to the forum Scott.
Congrats on getting your first bike. The best way to learn is to just do it. Ask all the questions you want, just please be specific and provide as much accurate info as you can. That will assure you get the best and most accurate answers.
How old is Zach? My boy was born while I was in a bike project. At one point, he new the names of more car and bike parts than body parts. His shape matching toys were wrenches and bolts... They are never too young, or old, to learn." A kid with a tool in each hand, has no free hand to put drugs in".

Thank you for the warm welcome. My little guy is 6 and just starting to develop an interest in cars, bikes and boats.
I do have one question, I've been searching for an owner's manual online. the posts on the forum appear to be older. Other than buying one on ebay, is there an easy way to download owners' manuals? Again, thank you for the hospitality.
Happy holidays.

When the new download laws kicked in, many links disappeared. Keep looking, the manual is still out there somewhere.

Welcome - feel free to pop in the F2 section.
as far as the manual downloads go - they are still being hosted at Stephy G's CBR F4i Page
