The 900 section would be your first port of call for info and assistance on the bike.

Welcome to CBRF! A 900rr is a lot of bike for a new rider - just take it very easy on it.
....and of course: Always wear your gear! Enjoy the site.
EDIT: Oh, and some basic/general stuff - Maybe look into a 17in. rim conversion kit for the front so you can get some good tires on it. They don't make too many good tires anymore for the 16 inch front rim. That front end really limits you as to what you can get. I think the F3 rim is the rim of choice usually because it looks so similar to the 900rr rim. You'll have to do some research on it
