  • Everyone look! I'm introducing myself!

    Now that I've got your attention, HI! Don't worry, I'm usually not an attention-whore, but I figured I only get one intro, so I might as well go big or go home.

    Anyway, I'm Scott, I'm from just south of Santa Cruz, CA out on the coast, and I ride an 88 Katana 600. Its my dads technically, but he rides it maybe half a dozen times a year, whereas I ride it as much as I can, so I call it mine. Its mostly white with black on the bottom and a red tank and seats. The guy he bought it from raced it a little, so the airbox is gone, replaced with 4 pod filters. If I recall correctly, the previous owner also jetted the carbs. As far as I know, thats all the modding thats been done to it. I'm just happy to have it to ride, its soooooooo much fun, especially with the roads around here. The only picture I have of it is a pic of the damage from when I crashed it a few months ago (road covered in dirt, sharp turn, bad front tire, but at least I got it down from 45 to 25 before I lost it), so I'll have to get a new one now that its all fixed and repainted.

    In the words of Kevin Nealon, thats my story and I'm sticking to it.

                          Thanks for all the warm welcomes! I just heard about this place from a guy on my favorite car forum (www.fiero.nl) so I thought I better check it out, and I like it! I'm going to need more free time though, that or stop getting on so many forums. So much to read, so little time.

                          Thanks for the tip Ghost, I gotta remember to keep the rubber side down
