Default New to the bike world!

It is a privilege and honor to be part of this lifestyle/community. I have always wanted a motorcycle and now that I'm doing the things I have always wanted. People told me that if I'm going to buy something old and cheap, go Honda. Just bought a 1991 Honda CBR 600 for my first bike. It won't start, lol. That's actually a blessing because it gives me a chance to know about bikes as I take it apart and try to figure out what's wrong with. Hopefully I won't tear my hair out. That's why I'm here.

Welcome to the CBR Forum Rookie,

Hopefully you won't remain a rookie long and get to ride your CBR600. Start reading the relevant threads and post any questions you need. There's no such thing as a 'wrong' question, so don't be shy. We're here to help and get you and your bike on the road for as many trouble free miles as possible.

First of all either buy, of find online a manual for the bike. It always helps having the info at your fingertips.

Best of luck.

Cheers, SB

Welcome, when you say it’s not starting, is it competely dead or is it turning but not firing?
