Hello, Hello!

Just wanted to stop in and sy hello to all members. I just purchased a 98 F3 w/ 12xxx. My only riding experience thus far has been w/ 150cc dirt bikes so this is going to be quite an adjustment! I have always liked the cbr and got a pretty good deal on this bike ($2300) and could not pass this up. The only problem w/ the bike is the top of the tank is smashed in for "tank wheelies." Not exactly my cup of tea but if I can get it fixed for a little cash, then it should turn out to be a great purchase. I don't really have a lot of tech know-how so I'm sure that I'll have a ton of questions, I offer thanks up front.

Thanks,

Joe

Hi Joe & welcome to the boards. Definatly take a MSF class if you haven't yet. Dirt and street riding is quite abit different. Look around on ebay for deals on a tank. You will have to buy a new one to replace the dented in one. No real way to fix it.

 

I defeintely planned on taking the class, thaks for the tip. I would have taken the class sooner, but when I saw the oppurtunity to buy this, I jumped.

 

Welcome. THe MSF class is great, you should definitly take it.

 

welcome to the boards!

 

glad to see ya here thanks for joining up

 

Have you looked around for anyone to repair the tank?

 

Welcome to the family.
