Soo finally got my first sportsbike (which rocks) but i'm a good boy and am still sitting out my restriction so it's got a throttle stop - 10weeks left and counting Very Happy

Its a 2001 CBR600F with...
Oxford sports panniers (amazing!! hold more than my 45L top box)
black double bubble screen
rear seat cowl
rear wheel hugger
gold handlebar ends
gold fairing bolts
white wheel rim tape
colour matched crash bungs

Its not too wide considering the panniers, and it still looks awesome Thumbs Up

Sadly i can't really ride it atm, it needs a camchain tensioner as its rattling like nobody knows Thumbs Down

Carole Nash did me a bargain on the insurance, got £100 off because i told them its restricted!

I'm feeling some form of yoshi carbon fibre can and some mini led indicators? Maybe some sexier heel plates...

A bagster tank cover is on order to help me through the winter Very Happy

opinions?

Yeah that'll be nice - although it still goes like shit off a shovel despite the pathetic travel on the throttle!

The main reason for keeping it in is that it limits how bad any speeding fines I may or may not incur are. I do a LOT of motorway riding so getting caught doing over 95 and i'm looking at losing MOST of the available points on my shiny license...

It'd be a bit embarrassing to lose my 6 points just 10 weeks from getting the full 12.

Besides, no-one can see your bike if you're going too fast XD
