Just yesterday i bought myself a 1997 cbr f3...ill post up pics later but i wanted your input on how these bikes are for stuntriding..
i got the f3 with the purple and yellow color scheme...

 

Congrats on the first bike! :YEAH perfect for a starter bike. First thing is if you want to keep the plastics nice TAKE THEM OFF! see if anyone makes a cage for your bike and get one. You dont need a 12 bar or handbrake yet so dont waste your money. Take it slow and take your time. most people get hurt because they rush themselves; and use the clutch. power whoolies will hurt you.

 

Nice one man - will be heaps diff to to the crf

Have you cluched one up yet?

 

congrats now gon't kill yourself

 

damn i can't spell today

 

ya.. my buddy got a 905 for his f3.. fits mint.. to tell you the truth.. i think he put it on and the bike died on him before he could take it out.. not a scratch on it...figures he got the one honda that died

 

Congrats, have fun finding insurance at your age.

 

thanks guys ive been stuntriding dirtbikes for a while and now i think im at the point where its best for me to transfer...here is a pic of me on the bike.

 

Sweet! That was my first rocket, a purple and yellow F3. Things are virtually bullet-proof. Good choice. Check out McGraw insurance, cheapest I've found and as long as you didn't finance your bike, they won't reem you.

 

thanks bro...i def. check that out.
i rode it a lil yesterday just to get the feel but no wheelies yet im not in any rush.

 

pretty sweeeeet

 

congrats...:YEAH

 

sweet bike. I almost got that exact one but ended up with the 96 with the similiar colors.

 

take off what ever fairings you can leave the tail on rattle can that and the tank black buy a cage and cut your pipe!!

 

why should he rattle can it?

 

i got a freestyle cage for my f3 last week and its a pile of ****. go with something else.. i spent more time borring holes and re-drilling than i did installing the thing. now that its on its sturdy as hell.. but the install made me throw wrenches at my neighbors cat..

 

im not gonna stuntride this bike immediatley...im still gonna practice and get better on my dirtbikes...but i plan to fighter it out sometime in the future. im only 16 and this bike is more than enough for me...only negative thing about it is that its carbed.

 

there no probs with carbs until you want to do bar tricks and circ's...congrats on the first sportbike man, Its an awesome feeling huh

 

how bad will it effect learning circles? im not to fond of bar tricks..lol

 

shouldnt be too bad, watch edub ride his F3 in the outermost dvd, always seems like his circs have to be semi fast, never on idle...I dont know though, since I've never tried to circle a carb'd bike. I mean I can barely even do 1 circle on my f4i...
