Default New rider...first bike F4I

Whats up girls and guys my name is John and my latest toy is my 04 F4I. I am 21 in the military (AF) and stationed in Albuquerque. Before this bike i had a 3000gt vr-4 which was only BPU but still fast. I am no stranger to speed or power but i know my own limits. I just picked up my CBR this month with less then 1300 miles and in really good condition. I am still waiting on my MSF sponsorship (hopefully in Oct) but since then i have just been riding to and from work with my permit. I think it makes a great first bike and it has a lot more power once i feel more comfortable. I know some people don't agree with a first time rider getting a 600 but i know i would of been kicking my self in the butt if I got a 250. My buddy bought a new 250 ninja and he already out grew it in less then 3 months. Anyways I though i would just drop a line and get a feel for this forum. Thanks.
