Oh Yeah . . . I'm in the house now!
I'm a newbie to this forum, just want to say HELLO.

I will fill out my profile after this,but just some info about me.

I live in Bloomfield Connecticut. I own a 1998 Suzuki GSXR 600.
I bought this bike last summer (my first bike), it was a fixxer upper, but I'm riding it now.
I thought for my first bike, I wanted something small (advice from experience riders) that I could handle, pay for out right and work on myself. I will post before and after pictures of my bike later. But to cut along story short It is a AMAZING FEELING being out in the open road.

Welcome. While a GSXR 600 certainly is not "small", I'm glad you're doing well. Just don't let your ego get the best of you.

Thanks You
I am taking my time with the bike, not pushing myself. Allowing myself time to learn.

I have been going through this forum, it's not that user friendly. But, I guess once I get use to it It will get easier.

Any advice?

User friendly? I thought vBulletin was the most common forum software. It's everywhere.

A GSXR 600, may be small in size, but it certainly isn't small on get up and go. Take your time on that bad boy.

DO take it easy on that "small" bad boy!

Welcome...

So where did you get your "fixer upper"? and what have you had to do to it to get it to riding condition?
