A recent convert

Postby Pistol Pete » Tue Mar 31, 2009 4:56 pm

G'day, my name's Pete.
I've been riding for just over 2 yrs now, and thought it'd be a good idea to join a forum that is a little more specific to a bike i just recently purchased. I first started into the motorcycling world after years of yearning, and a lifestyle of a student that meant no cash. Since working full time, i've accumulated a shed that includes a 1993 Honda Spada (been and gone), a 2008 Hyosung GT650, a 1973 Honda CB350/Four, a 2000 XR650R motard, and as of 2 weeks ago, a 2003 Z1000. Since ibought this wonderful steed, i've noticed that Kawasaki's traditional colour seems to bring it out in people i know who are going green with envy.
Oh, and somewhere in there i nabbed a 1979 HZ ute, for transporting unhappy bikes when they don't want to get up and go.
I know a couple of people here from another forum, including Frog and Buckets, and am keen to meet and ride with a few more.

Cheers,
Pete

thanks for the welcome guys Image
i plan to get out a little more in the coming months, but working as a cellarman and in the bar means mostly weekend work..
i especially am interested in getting out to some track days and really stretching the bounds of the "sport" aspect of the Z

and we'll see about who the girlfriend is hoffy... :kuda:
