Default What up fellas

Just like a lot of the intro threads I've recently read... Im new to motorcycles all together. I owns me a 92 CBR 600. Its a starter, but I am unable to own and form of transportation and keep it stock, so Im moddin her with the money I have. It only has 17k on the clock. Its in the process of being painted. Heres the color and theme it used to be:

On a budget, but painting her as we speak. Will of course update with pics as I progress.

The 600f series are great solid bikes. Enjoy learning how to ride. Make sure you get some gear if you haven't already. Newenough.com has some GREAT deals on new equipment as well as eBay and bikebandit.com for aftermarket and oem stuff as well as some apparel. Make sure you atleast get a jacket, (preferrably textile, mesh is cheap and melts), a good set of gloves (again NO MESH GLOVES they shread on impact and melt), and a good helment. Jules wrote up a great review on all the 600 f series bikes, its good stuff also look in the 600f section if you have any questions. hope this helps and enjoy

Nice bike, welcome to the Forum.......changing the paint scheme ....... pretty good idea.
Like Bub recommends .........Gear is a good idea at least a decent lid , jacket , gloves and boots. Ride Safe ..... be sure to post up with the new paint job.

Hey there Dafi, so you weren't digging the Miami Vice paint scheme, eh? Well, congratulations on the bike; 17K ain't nothing. Post pics after your paint job & good luck with it.

Yeah, what's up with that? You could have told all the ladies you were Don Johnson...
Welcome to the CBRF, man. Ride safe out there. Wear gear and assume everyone is trying to kill you.
