You're going to get people arguing back and forth here.. but if you want the CBR, get it! Those are great bikes. I'd get the bike then work on the engine with the spare money you have.

I think my avatar should give you my opinion. Bikes rule. Love my honda too though. Gotta have both.

The CBR F3 is a starter bike we guys call them a gilie bikes. Having said that the CBR 600s are one of the worlds best bikes.

If this is your fist bike its go for it man.
I didnt like it much.
If it was me Id buy an old GSXR1100 (Arround same price).
The F3 and the F4i seem totally dead below 8000 RPM.
Its like an on off switch.
The LTR class bike though more powerfull are easier to ride if you ask me.
As the power is more lenier.
