lurking in the closet

My status is lurking in the closet, but I would say that i have been lurking from work for a while.

I found this forum a while back through a link in thekneeslider.com, i think, or maybe it was pipeburn.com, spend a lot of time on both trying to gather inspiration for builds.

I am not partial to any one particular brand, model, or genre of bikes, but I can say I dislike the big choppers that always seem to have airtime. I have come to love the small cafe bikes, any kind of trackers, street bikes, street fighters, etc.

I have been riding for most my life and started when I was young on dirtbikes. My first build was with my dad in highschool when we built a kz400, learned a lot from those early builds we did.

I live in Phoenix, AZ now, but I have lived all around the country in almost every region at one time or another and have even lived in Europe for a few years.

Currently I ride an 09 Yamaha R6, black with gold, 300+ days out of the year. I love riding in PHX. I am currently building an 89 zx750 that is all kinds of cut up and hacked, slimmed and trimmed, ugly as hell but almost complete. I have a few wiring issues to deal with yet, but the major work is done. I will post pics to share when I get the chance.

I also drive a slick black on black 06 Nissan Altima SE-R, which is a really fun cage to driveand fast for a four door sedan.

I am looking forward to learning from some of you guys on here and getting to know some of you. We all share the same passion that many bike enthusiasts do and I hope that same passion will transfer for me from the road to the forum.

Glad to have ya!
New guy buys the beer, so next rounds on you.

As another new guy, I can say that I am perfectly willing to buy the beer, but someone will have to come over here to drink it, and while your here "lemmie show you the bike, know anything about these carbs?".
 
All for buying a few beers, especially if it is during work hours.

Look at that....got some patches!
