newbie needs advice :)
hi all,
i'm 20 and new to biking and have recently bought myself a honda cbr 600 1998.
i have already had my first accident, car pulled out in front of me, i hit the front brake which locked up and slid out, i then went sliding down the road, i am fine bar some grazes and concussion but the bike needs a some tlc.
so all advice is welcome please
basically i have ruined the right side of the bike, luckily the guy i bought it from gave me some spare side panels so thats all fine but i need...
-a new front fairing
-new wing mirrors
-new indictors
and i need them as cheap as possible,
any help
zach.

hey Zach and welcome!! :-)
sorry to hear you had a spill on the bike which I assume is an F3 same as
mine by the year, I managed to get all my parts off ebay over a period of
months, mostly the winter, just a few bits to get now and I can put her back together again :-)
Good luck with your bike, keep us informed
maybe even do a pictoral restoration in the F3 forum
Be safe!!
