Default Newbie from Down Under

Hi everyone. I am from New Zealand originally but am living in Australia now. I have been riding for 8 years now. Currently riding a 2000 CBR600 f4. Love it. Still got my first bike in the shed as well. ('92 CB400) just cant seem to get rid of it.

I would love to smarten up the f4 abit currently in Blue/red & white guise. mods am dreaming of would be; new fairing kit, Bi-xenon hid projector conversion, exhaust, GPS mount + electrical sockets, Spotties, flush mont indicators. i had prob better start saving.

I find riding for me is freedom. When i am riding, whether it is to get some milk or loaded up for a weekend tour / camp trip, there is no better feeling. It just makes everything better.

Look forward to chatting / reading / learning from you all.

Welcome to CBRF!

I have a 2000 F4 as well. They are great bikes. When you can, post pic of both of your bikes. We all like pics.

Yep, for those mods you will need to 'save'! ;-) Sounds like a good plan tho.

Glad you found us. Settle in & enjoy.

Good job on the bike. Looks great now. Look's like it took a lot of work to get it the way it is though.
