New guy to bikes in general
 
hey all i'm a definite newb...i don't know anything at all about motorcycles but am getting pretty bored with my f-bodies so decided to pick up a bike a bit ago.
picked up a 96 cbr600...

and ended up laying it down today lol

so i'm hoping i can absorb all you ol' timers' knowledge so i can fix my own issues!!

thanks for lookin and i hope to be a contributing (instead of leeching) member soon!

Sorry you laid down your bike. You've got to be safe... So, hope you are wearing your gear. I don't know about "ol timer" but that's my first recommendation. ;-) Next recommendation is getting yourself to the MSF course...Motorcycle Safety Foundation. You'll learn basic riding & safety techniques that will really pay dividends in both the short & long run.

Hope you get your bike's repair issues sorted & repaired easily.

Be safe out there. Welcome to the forum.

Welcome.
We were all noobs at some point, and most have dropped a bike or two. Hope yours wasn't too serious. Get up some pics with your questions and we will try to guide you at fixin her up.
