Hey what's happening people. Here's my CBR story.
So I sold my car and I got a 93 CBR F2 from a coworker. Pretty decent when I first got it just needed the front forks rebuilt, a new starter and chain. Ok changed the starter myself easy. Took it to the shop for forks. Changed the chain but it's a like two links too long and a bit loose.
This was my first motorcycle and first time riding as well. Pictures ok the first two is how it looked when I first got no accident. Time for the first accident. The girl I was dating at the time had a huge like lifted suburban, one day I came to visit her and parked behind the beast of that started it all. Her being the pretty girl she was she was always late, always in a rush. I mean you can tell where this is going. She backing into the still unnamed beautiful motorcycle I just got a week before. It bent the front stay mount and just looked pushed in. That's one. Here come the second one. Me being a new rider and no friends in the community I failed to get frame sliders (still don't have a damn pair). So about three months of riding, I took a corner with too much confidence failing to look at the huge oil spill right in the apex of my turn. I had pictures but then deleted them after a week of shame. My right side fairings were scratched but still all attached. I still kept riding, in pain and bleeding.(just for another 10 minutes though.) Time for accident three. Hahaha ok so a couple more months go by now and I should've learned to get some sliders, but nah of course not I rather go eat out a bunch with friends I just met that also ride. So while leave my sisters house heading home one nite and I'm heading onto a curved freeway on ramp and a car come super close and pass me and I hit the sand between the freeway and on ramp that little triangle and fell right there. That's where I broke the upper right fairing and mirror along with the right driver peg. Somehow I'm able to make it home. Rip all the fairings off and say hello to a naked bike project lol jk I planned to fix. Till one day I'm over visiting a buddy at his shop and while I'm in the parking lot waiting to take off a car backs into me pretty hard and I go down. That damaged the right peg I had to replace, the radiator got pushed over a bit and the cap damaged. Broke my front mud flap fairing thing and did some damages to the right end side. The pictures are how it is to date.
