Default New Guy On The Block

What's up Guys (and ladies out there),
My name is Tim, I'm 19, and just bought a '97 F3 on Tuesday with just a little over 10k on it. Pretty nice so far, not too much riding experience, just messed with a few friends bikes and dirt bikes growing up.
Recent purchased a FOX body armor jacket from eBay- expecting that in about a week.
Still need a license, but other than that Just got a lot of paperwork done at the DMV yesterday- forgot to put mileage down on the new title application- oh well.

I guess I need a new front tire (little dry rot goin on).
Fairings are a little mis matched with a couple red paints (obviously sprayed).
bike has been down- some rash on both sides- nothing horrible for a '97.
front suspension is a little tight, hopefully adjusting that soon.
Quick bike, I love it, Too much red tho, looking to add a little more black.

Any ideas, tips, suggestions, questions... anything- Let me know.
Thanks Guys!- Glad to be in here!

That is one clean F3. Only 10k? That is pretty much brand new. Take care of it because it will be with you for a long time. I got the same bike.

BTW you should look into taking the MSF course. I took it as an experienced rider and I still learned so much.

Thanks for posting pics!

Thanks- Im going to attempt to take a course soon, but the classes are all full for the locations I want to take them. Im going to try and get in this weekend as a walk in.

And let me tell you- the pictures are a little deceiving, but she's still a beaut!
