Hi Everyone, from Tampa, Florida, USA..!
Hi everyone,
My name's Joe, and, as the subject line states, I'm from the otherside of the world!
I'm here basically for a few reasons:
In no particular order...
1. I want to "break out" and see what the sportbiking community is like in other parts of the world...
2. I've been fascinated with Australia for as long as I can remember, and a life long dream is to visit some day...
3. Well, back to #1 really, the sportbike "scene" in the U.S. is pretty much the same, I suspect it probably isn't too different here, but hey, it's on the other side of the world, it's somewhere else...
I ride a 2001 ZX7R, and yes, as you can sort of tell from the Avatar, it's Kawi YELLOW, not green! Which, I suppose, by the way, might be my first question... Any factory yellow Kawi's down there???
Anywho, looking forward to getting to know this site, and the folks within it a little better!
