Had a crackin deal swapped my XR600 98 for this 98 CBR600 FW, just starting out so hope this was a good move.



Im aware protection wise kit is now rare?

 

aware of what?

 

finding a cage to fit

 

Better than my first or second bike seca600 and fzr600... And don't get a cage unless you plan on it being a stunt piece I'd recomend race rails

 

I have an FI on my F2 and it does the job, prone to rolling on the tank though.

I hear the 905 is a little better.

 

 

Although i have been riding some 13 odd years this is all something quite new, propper novice.

 

is it gonna be a dedicated stunter?? race rails are lie a cage but w/ only the top bars.... not a full cage that has a lower cross over bar...... they tend to drag when hanging cornes.....that is what i hear...hahah i dont hang corners!

 

yeah i had SI on my 97 f3, and beware of corners, i was doin over 130 in a corner with some buddies behind me waving me down because i was less than an inch from my SI cage digging into the ground.. good thing id idn't have any sliders on the end.

 

Probably, i'm getting my highly modded ZRX1100 back at the weekend so the cbr is just a toy for messin about on. Had the bike about 2/3 weeks now which i have spent learning the bike to see how she rides.

I have found so far that the front forks are ***** and have very little travel, and the head races need tightening as there is a little play.

 

well you can stunt anything almost, but prob not gonna get to serious on that bike....but i would be ok to leardn the basics on im sure...when things start getting more technical im sure you will want to upgrade!!

 

Lolo kills the f2 though man..

Im a long way from anything like that lol, still on stock gearing for a start!

The ZRX will never get used for stuntin its way to heavy, the f3 is perfect just needs a little fettlin
