Default newb from the chicago area

Hey all, the name's Zoober.

I recently purchased a 00' CBR 600F4, orange/black, 14,xxx on the clock. LOVE the bike, runs well except for an idling issue (likes to die out when idling when 'warm'), very clean tho, a few minor scratches but no signs of being laid down/tipped.

Hope to get out a lot this summer riding with my roommate/friend who's got an 06' R6. Got a few other friends with F4i's.

Hope to be posting more!

Welcome in Zoob.
You might want to take a look and see if you have an idle adjustment **** over there by your petcock (these are very sensitive). I am not sure about the location but that is where its at on my F3. You should be idling at around 1.2-1.5 warm. A bit higher cold.

Yeah, that is about where I'm idling at, it just goes "rough" all of a sudden and I have some throttle hesitation when this happens. I'll take a look though, thanks!
