Hey out there in CBR land!! I drive to pick up my 'new' CBR tomorrow and I'm very pleased about it. I have been riding for almost 10 years and have owned many bikes but this is my first Honda. My bikes, in chronological order, consist of a 1988 EX500, 1997 TL1000S, 1998 GSX-R600, 2005 Ducati Monster(still own), 2000 Ducati 748, 2007 XB9R, 1996 YZ125(still own) and a Kymco People 150(still own). I recently sold my Buell to accommodate my layoff at work and couldn't resist this little charmer. It is a 1989 CBR F1 and it is in pristine condition. I plan on riding this bike for at least a full season before she becomes my wife's track tool. I hope I can keep her off of it for at least that long but that's not always the case. Anyway, I am happy to be here and hope to learn a lot from this community. Thanks for having me!!

 

Hey Paul & Welcome!
Fine looking CBR600 F there....My favourite bike 20 years ago.
Plenty of topics here ,look around ,enjoy.

 

Good grief, what a crazy month already! There have been a TON of older bikes that are just gorgeous springing out of the woodwork. On one hand I'm happy to see them, on the other I'll never win a ROTM with these guys around.

 

hey Paul and welcome to the forums!!

I love the old style CBRs with their full enclosure ... also I had the EX500 too in black with red wheels although we call them GPZ500 here, should have a pic somewhere around my boyfriend at the time took of me going round the bends on it :-)

I hope you enjoy the forums and you should find everything you need here ...

Puff, puff, ah shoot - late again !
(Some of us have to work)
Really neat bike - I suggest you buy a good wheel lock and only keep one key, so the wife can't grab it !
Enjoy what's on offer, nice people here ........

 

Late again here too Shadow, don't feel left out [sm=boohoo.gif]
