CBR650F Newbie in the UK

[Wizball]

Hi,
Recently bought a 2014 CBR650F with 7kmiles on it, found this site whilst trawling the net so thought I'd sign up!
Had 2 other CBR6's previously in between many other bikes, though I'd come back to the model, see how it fairs👍
My avatar flag suggests I'm in the Netherlands but I'm not, dunno how to change this?
Will get some pics up when I'm home & not in work

Welcome! The flag is done on ip, so don't worry about it. It'll be your work isp.

What part of the UK?

Shrewsbury, Shropshire

 

[Wizball]

Done a few personal mods to it already!

Heated grips
R&G crash protectors
Shorty adjustable levers
Hyperpro shock
R&G shock tube
R&G bar end weights
JTech tail tidy
Double bubble screen

Things to do

Rear seat cowl - any suggestions on best one? I'm favouring the original Honda part for exact colour match.
Full exhaust system - again suggestions on which one, not really bothered about increasing power but once on then the Pair valves will get blanked.

Shropshire is nice country. Enjoy!

Exhaust systems are a personal choice. We have a few threads with videos, choose one you like the sound of!

Hi Wizball
Like you I've had a couple of of the 600f's in between other bikes and I've just got a 2018 model in black.
I like the look of the screen,has it made any difference when riding?

Maybe a little bit, once you get to about 85/90mph then you have to tuck in a little bit more!
