Default New Guy

Hello my name is Darrell LaCross. I am new to the forum and new to riding. I thinking I might have taking on a little more than i can chew. I am going to have to rely on you guys to help me through this. I bought a bike for $1500 with 692 on the odometer. The bike has a salvage title. Here is where i get confused the fram its on is an 02 but the motor is and 04. Is this ok. The motor and tranny is mint. The fearings, wheels, frame, swing arms and forks all need to be replaced. Is this going to be the biggest head ache of my life or am i ok i got 4 grand to dump into this and im pretty savy with honda cars as i tune them(2 RSX's and 1 S2000 all three built well). Someone please be honest with me have i bitten a lil more than i can chew.

What bike (or frame is it?) I assume an F4i from the dates you mentioned. There are a few fork options you have plus that bike has been around for a LONG time so you can find parts. As far a fairings, they are easy to get but can be pricey. Post some pics and more info and I'm sure you'll get some good responses.
