Default new rider in sac

good afternoon everyone. i picked up my first bike yesterday an 03 f4i with only 63xx miles on it. it's my first bike but i did take the msf course before i bought it and am aware i am a noob. the bike has a scorpion exhaust and power commander. the bike was dropped before and the previous owner painted it all white and it looks like a storm trooper now. i'm glad to be here and hope to learn a lot.

Swing by the F4i - Main Forum if ya need some help with your bike. You might be wanting these (unless the previous owner was really OCD) F4i Owners Manual and F4i Service Manual

A swing thru the How To: Riding Skills for tips on riding and gear

Man, she looks real nice! Kinda reminds me of a clean slate. Decent paint, and if you ever wanted to do some graphics, you could make it however you wanted it. Maybe just something subtle, even. (not that there's anything wrong with the all white look, though. Actually been pretty popular around here lately.... )
Welcome to the CBRF and ride safe!!!!!!

the paint isn't all that great, that's why the pictures are from kinda far away. i'm still learning but it's been fun ever since
