Default just bought and 08 CBR600RR!!

Hello to everyone on the forum, today i bought a left over 08 CBR600, i hope for it to be a huge step up from my 89 Suzuki GSX 600 Katana. I've been searching around the forum and am excited to be part of it. Seems to be a lot of people on here who have been riding awhile, hope to gain some knowledge about everything motorcycles.

as promised here are some photos of the 08CBR. picked it up with zero miles and put 100 on in the first day, keeping it under 6thousand RPM the whole time. i would post the pictures into this thread but i dont know how to do that so your stuck with links, sorry. i hope to learn how to use the features in the forum better

nothing special yet, just an 08 stock CBR. plant to possibly lower it and inch or 2, rear fender eliminator, maybe change the front lights. is it worth lowering a bike? I don't feel unsafe on this one but i am on my toes when stopped.
