Default Newb here.

Hello, my name is Christian. I had a 03 cbr 954 back in 04 and I got rid of it. It was my first street bike, I had rode plenty of dirt bikes and 4 wheelers but never a street bike. I loved it but times were rough and I had to let it go.

I was finally able to buy another. Bike was flawless when I found it, but the idiot dropped it loading it on his truck to deliver it to me. He went down quite a bit on price tho

It has a yoshi r + d exhaust, power commander III, and a fender eliminator that I know of. 17xxx miles. Rides great, it's been raining and to windy for me to really take her out. Also, buying some better riding gear today and wanna take her to get looked over and have fluids changed. She needs a windshield, new front nose and tail fairings. I'll get her fixed up and looking better. Here's pics of me hiding the damage lmao

Thanks guys. I went ahead and ordered me some mirrors and a windshield today. I can deal with my plastics for another couple weeks but not having mirrors and the crack on my windscreen was driving me crazy.

Also, I lurked on this site for almost a week before finally registering. Lots of good and helpful info here.

Also I changed my own front and rear brakes, not only did I loosen the wrong screw and had to bleed my brakes, but I now hear screeching noise from the front. Like maybe my pads are rubbing the disc while the lever isnt pressed, I'll look into it, not driving till this is figured out. And I have a set of fairings on the way!! Can't ****ing wait
