New-Indiana

Hey guys, jsut wanted to introduce myself. I've been browsing quite a bit and learning a lot. I've had many dirtbikes but this is my first sportbike.

98 CBR F3
I've been riding it for the last month 1/2 and love it. It does feel a bit heavy though.

Hello tsi4g63t, that's a beautiful bike you got there, looks brand new. Your dirtbike experience probably helps a lot I bet, and yeah, compared to those, sportbikes are considerably heavier. It'll feel lighter and more nimble the more you ride the bike though.
