Default New 02 CBR600f4i Rider

New to riding, my first bike was a Suzuki gs500f 05. Upgraded after 2 months.
Bought an 02 CBR600F4i 30k $2000, previous owner was trying to do a wheelie and the whole right side was smashed. Frame was in great condition and was straight. The major things that needed to be repaired were the plastics, windscreen, stock pipe and what it needed most of all was some TLC.

I replaced many many things on her
Delkevic DS70 Slip-on
New Plastics
Pirelli Diablo Tires
Barnett Kevlar Clutch Friction Plates
New O-ring Chain and Sprockets
Replaced Gas Cap to a similar Vortex Gas Cap
Double Bubble Windscreen
Shorty Levers
Blue LED Guage
BMC Air Filter
Double Ester Full Synthetic Oil
LED Tail Light

Please let me know what you guys think? Good buy?

Welcome! That's a beauty of a white CBR you got there!

How do you like the Delkevic? It was on my list of exhausts to look for on my own F4i, and I don't want one too loud.

Oh, and props to buying a bike that needs some work

Thanks guys! Im happy with the results and how it looks, just a few more things like an undedrtail, and a more comfortable seat.

The delkevic is amazing! Its very deep but its not too deep or too quite. The price is definitely worth it, the sound clips on YouTube don't sound the same as if you were in person, I recommend it.

While white wheels can look great when clean. However, being white, they tend to show dirt way easily.
