Hi All,
My Name is Greg, I am a 31 year old teacher, and I hail from Edmonton Alberta Canada. Needless to say we have very few months to ride in a year and this is my first season. I started out the season with a 2006 Honda Shadow 750 Aero. A very nice looking bike, however, bike being 6 feet tall I found in really hard on my knees. A set of forward controls was gonna cost me $1300 (installed) and I was not willing to fork over that kind of cheddar for I bike I was only gonna keep until next season. So I sold it.
I replaced it with a 1990 Katana 600, and I haven't looked back.
Needless to say this puppy is gonna need some work. The frame is good and the body is good considering the year. But new fork seals, break fluids (breaks next year), and an oil change are in demand.
I'm not mechanically inclined but I hope to be able to do the, at the very least,fluids on my own.
Anyways, that's me in a nutshell, now I'm off to try and get that stupid oil filter off.
Peace
Greg
