    Hi all! Just getting started here. 

    Riding for ~30 years. 

    Fan of vintage Japanese bikes. My first was an '80 CX500C (which I still have). Love 'em all and mostly into cruisers... But have a soft-spot for 'sports' too. Faves are an '83 GPz750 and '99 Ninja 250. Current daily ride is a 2004 Vstar 1100.

    No 'dis to Harleys and Indians - just not my bag (though I'll admit I drool over my buddy's Indian...)

    Located in Central Pennsylvania, near Harrisburg.

    i'm retired from a career as an internet marketer, but amuse myself running a small business selling vintage japanese-bike parts online - because I had such trouble finding good ones myself... But that's not why I'm here.

    Welcome to the best motorcycle board on the web,
    from over here in the rainy wet & cold SF bay area,enjoying the raindrops.

    My buddy years ago fully restored a old 70's Kawa 650 basket case.I recall he did have some difficulty finding parts,yet he did complete the project and that baby could really haul ass thru the canyon.

    Stay safe & enjoy the ride
