Default What's Up?!

Hey, I've been on here for a bit, but still have yet to really introduce myself. My name is Zane. I'm 20 and I live in PA. I'm currently a student at IUP for anyone who may know what that is Indiana University of PA. Anyways, I own a 2002 CBR f4i that I have had since last August. The color scheme of the bike was originally black and yellow, but I have recently changed it to all white fairings with some black. I've always liked the way white bikes looked. This is not my first bike that I've owned. My first was a blue 2005 R6 and then it was a 2007 R6 Charcoal Raven Edition which I loved. Had to give it up though because I was in need of some funds. I didn't choose to buy this F4i, it was actually offered to me in a trade with a car I had as well so that's how I picked it up. To be honest I wasn't a huge fan of it at first, but it has definitely grown on me especially since changing to all white. When I got the bike it was completely stock and since I have added flush mounts up front, DIY home-made fender eliminator with integrated tail, and I painted the rear seat black as well to match the front, and of course the white fairings. I don't know how long I plan on keeping her but that's all I plan on doing for now. Okay well enough about me and the bike. Take a look at some pics.

Before:



*Bike seemed to have been dropped by previous owner on this side. I cleaned it up as best I could.



After:





***On a side note I would just like to add that I bought these fairings off Ebay...Advan-Racing are people who made them and let me tell you they are great. No fitment issues what-so-ever and they are very durable. Paint is just as good if not better than factory.***

Zane, the white fairings really look great. Glad the bike "grew" on you. Sounds like it has a good home w/ you.
