Newb here from Western NC!
What's up guys/gals?! Checking in from the wonderfully cold and nasty Mtn's of NC. I got directed over here from Yamerhaw (thanks man) and I think I may just have to stick around a while. I am a Hyundai/Chevy Tech for a dealership in Boone, NC (you know, home of App State). I split up my free time between my family, my bike and off-roading.
I've got an '01 CBR 929rr that I haven't been able to properly break in yet. I had a 600 Can-a-tuna before this, and a '90 Yamaha Radian before that.....the bike before that one was, well......... a Yamaha Exciter 250. I was only 17 when I had the Exciter, but I have had the others in the last four years. I'm really looking forward to making the 929 what I want it to be, and it only has 48XX miles on it, so I have some tweaking to do yet. Well, that's me..... |

Not really ashamed, it was a great bike to learn on. The worst part about it was at the time, my cousin had a ZX11 and he could do more in first than mine would do wound out in fifth. It's all good, as now my 929 will whip his Big Dogg. |
