Default New guy with an old bike

Well were do I begin? My name is Paul, I'm 35 and been riding some sort of motorcycle for most of my life. I currently own a 2002 Harley Sportster 1200S and just yesterday picked up my 1989 CBR600F. It's a little rough and busted but runs and shifts fine with new rubber front and rear. It's got an oil leak somewhere down low on the left side, a broken clutch lever, the plastics were all being held on by zip ties ( I took them off for inspection of the engine and tranny) and It'smissing the windshield and mirrors. Why am I telling you all this? Because I needs parts, and advice. Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the site Paul.
Good to have you here with us. SloLane said, Keep us posted on the project.

Maybe try ebay for some older parts like that. Some of the guys here will prolly know where you can get some parts to fixer up.
