hello all! just wanted to introduce myself as a newbie at forums as well as owning my very 1st honda bike! i've got a '95 F3 which i got back in august of '04. i love this sport, if that's what a lot of people call it! it gives me such a sense of freedom and is very exhilerating!!! i'm already looking to get rid of my used bike and look for something newer like an F4i or 600RR! what do u guys think? or should i wait it out and ride a little longer and get some more experience? well.....if you'd like just reply and let me know what type of bike you ride and how long you've been riding! thanks!

Hi and welcome to the boards. You have yourself a great starter bike there. Definatly keep it awhile longer. Learn everything you can on it, then look into upgrading. You won't regret it.

yeah i guess you're right......i should stick with this bike for now......but i'm so tempted to get a newer fuel injected bike. my buddy just got a 600RR not too long ago and i took it for a ride and it was soooo much nicer than my bike! i'm envious! LOL

Not to sound like a killjoy, but if you have never done a wheelie chances are you are going to lay it over a few times to get the hang of it. Here is some reality in the stunt scene.

If you are going to try, make sure and wear all of your gear!
