ignore the messy garage, gotta work on that today...

Just picked it up yesterday. It's an 02 CBR600 F4i. It's in great shape with only just over 5k miles. It needs a new rear tire pretty bad, I can't wait to get that and start riding!

Congrats Danny.

I just got back from a run on my F4i (clear, country road. no traffic, 80 mph sprints )

Please be safe. It is a mean 600 and can be unforgiving.

Have fun!

it's bound to happen. Most of the people here are speed freaks and you can only go so far with a CL

you have to have full coverage until your bike is totally paid off.

I like how the front end looks like an RC51.

nice catch.

be careful and get a full set of gear!! - it could save your life.

my 03 cbr600rr is supposed to run 10.79 stock in the 1/4 mile. you should hit at least low 11'z with that.

i know i do, but i was not factoring it in when i was thinking about buying a bike. ( i was getting ahead of my self). how much do you guys pay for insurance?

just liability was gonna be $172/yr. But I added uninsured motorist protection, which also required uninsured motorist injury coverage, so it added up to $500/yr

Nice bike, man. I picked up an '01 Kawi ZX-12 this spring. No more of that turbo-lag feeling like the 600 had. You got me beat in insurance though, mine's pushing $150/month...OUCH

that's how much my CL insurance is!

right now, at my experience level, I want turbo lag.
